Mission
St. Thomas University is a small, Catholic institution whose central
liberal arts programme is complemented by professional programmes in
education and social work; and by applied programmes in criminal justice,
gerontology and journalism. St. Thomas University takes pride in and
seeks to nurture its Catholic and humanistic heritage, its concern for
social issues, its interaction with the community beyond the campus
and its sensitivity to the needs of individual students. A strong sense
of community unites its alumni, students, staff, faculty and friends.
We are a university primarily concerned with people, ideas and values.
We are an institution with a social conscience. We are united in the
belief that women and men of divergent backgrounds and abilities should
have an opportunity to learn and practice critical thought and to realize
their intellectual potential in an academic setting that is both responsive
and stimulating.
We take pride in welcoming students who show potential, as well as
those of proven ability; those who pursue a traditional academic career
and those who do not; those who study part time as well as those who
study full time. We want our students to succeed, to grow in self-esteem,
to experience the joy of intellectual accomplishment.
