Mission and Values:

Rooted in the Catholic and Franciscan Traditions of Faith and Reason, the University of Saint Francis engages a diverse community in learning, leadership and service.

The university holds fast to the teachings and faith of the Roman Catholic Church, the liberal arts tradition, and the virtues of the wisdom tradition inspired by St. Francis and St. Clare of Assisi: reverence the unique dignity of each person; encourage a trustful, prayerful community of learners; serve one another, society and the Church; foster peace and justice; respect creation.
