Philosophy

The Mission of Chaminade University is to prepare its students for professional careers and personal growth in an educational environment in the liberal arts tradition enriched by Catholic Marianist values.

To achieve the University Mission, we:

- form a community encompassing people from diverse cultural origins who hold a variety of religious beliefs.

- welcome both traditional and non-traditional students.

- encourage learning by cooperation, self-discipline, caring, and mutual respect.

- offer individualized attention that promotes personal and intellectual growth.

- educate and train for servant leadership within the University and in communities beyond our campus.

- advocate personal concern for social justice, ethics, and responsibility and service to the community.

- exert institutional leadership by promoting our ideals outside the University community.
