FOUNDED ON CATHOLIC FRANCISCAN VALUES
In an age of complexity, the simplicity of the message of St. Francis of Assisi
has more appeal than ever before:
Catholic Faith. Humility. Generosity. Reverence. Service. Respect. Prayer. Joy.
Love.
These guiding principles of the Franciscans are the values we embrace at Saint
Francis University.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OUR MISSION
As the oldest Franciscan institution of higher learning in the United States,
Saint Francis University draws inspiration from our Catholic tradition and
expresses the lived example of Saint Francis of Assisi in the modern world.
Saint Francis University promotes an inclusive learning community and a lifelong
path to virtue, truth, and compassion. Within a culture that seeks understanding
through innovation and collaboration, we champion both the inherent dignity of
the individual person and the common good.
