Statement of Mission
As an undergraduate, liberal arts university, the
University of Sudbury is committed to foster and to develop in its students the
desire and the ability to undertake for themselves humanity`s perennial quest
for ultimate meaning. The courses and programmes offered by the University of
Sudbury will be such as not only to record, but to foster, in a contemporary
setting, the search for Truth.
As a university situated in Northeastern
Ontario, the University of Sudbury is committed to the official cultural
bilingualism of the region by the provision of courses and programmes both in
the French and the English languages, insofar as enrolment warrants and by a
dedication to the development of the cultural aspirations of the Anglophone and
Francophone communities through an involvement in the life of these
communities.
As a university committed to the preservation and
development of the culture, traditions of the Native Peoples of Northeastern
Ontario, the University of Sudbury is committed to the provision to both Native
and Non-Native students of Laurentian University of courses and programmes
destined to the furthering of an awareness of, and appreciation for, the Native
world-view.
Situated in a religiously and culturally pluralistic society,
the University of Sudbury acknowledges this diversity and is committed to
promote inter-faith dialogue and ecumenism. Through this cultural reciprocity,
the University of Sudbury will seek to cultivate and nurture Christian students
in the Roman Catholic tradition. This commitment will be doubly expressed: by
the provision of an integral humanistic and religious education; and by its
involvement, through the promotion of, and participation in various related
projects and activities. |
