Universal Apostolic Preferences
As a Jesuit, Catholic university, our commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging is deeply rooted in our mission—grounded in justice, compassion, and holistic education. This work is further affirmed by the Universal Apostolic Preferences, four guideposts for Ignatian ministry that will shape our collective focus through the end of the decade. Among these is a call to walk with the marginalized—those who are excluded or oppressed.
