STUDENT LIFE VISION
The Student Life Department at Franciscan University fosters a vibrant Catholic culture that supports students as they learn to integrate faith and reason. Through co-curricular programs, Student Life challenges students to grow in mind, body, and spirit under the lordship of Jesus Christ and to become contributing members of the University’s intellectual and faith community. In all things, Student Life aspires to communicate the “universal call to holiness,” as a grace to be sought and a way of life in which to be trained. ( John Paul II, Apostolic Letter, Novo Millenio Ineunte, January 6, 2001, 30-31.)
