Strategic Plan: Goal 2
GOAL #2: To achieve an environment for the education of men that is recognized for excellence in learning, teaching, living, and working.
We believe this goal is best attained in a comprehensive educational environment characterized by a significantly enhanced campus infrastructure and a liberal arts curriculum with a core commitment to the education of men in the 21st century.
