University Development
Benedictine University fosters engaged citizens of the community through academic excellence and the values of the Benedictine tradition. Today, the mission and vision of the University continue to reflect these beliefs. The light – the values and the spirit of the University – that was carried by its founders, is passed on anew to succeeding generations of students. This "passing of the light" provides our community with a sense of connection with the past and direction for the future. This belief reflects our efforts to design innovative programs that meet current and future academic and professional demands. Benedictine University faculty and administrators take a pragmatic approach as we prepare students to "carry the light" into a new and changing world. As our graduates go forward, the hope is that they will carry those values – the "light" – with them.
Benedictine University emphasizes the importance of the individual, living in harmony with the community. Through close relationships with faculty, staff and peers, students develop a lifelong connection to the Benedictine tradition. This individualized attention attracts the most talented and diverse group of students. Our ability to meet the financial needs of these students has led to growth of the student body, campus and academic programs. We are committed to the continued advancement of Benedictine University, impacting future students and generations. Your support will transform our future and help us fulfill that commitment.
