Strengthen Catholic Identity

愿景声明

University of the Incarnate Word, 天主教机构, is firmly grounded in a culture of spiritual worship, which is the font and summit of our identity, 道德勇气, 只是行动. UIW’s Catholicity compels us to honor and promote a culture of 尊重 encounter that includes and invites all to contribute, 诚实和真理, to our ongoing dialogue among ourselves and with the world. UIW’s ongoing dialogue is translated into a culture of charitable justice that advocates for the dignity and rights of all, promotes compassion and 团结, 消除了不信任, 恐惧, 仇恨, 和暴力. UIW's culture of intellectual humility forms enlightened citizens who are moved to take just action. UIW's culture of principled administration establishes a hospitable and life-giving community (of learners) that promotes integral human development and good of all.

战略目标

• Strengthen our Catholic identity, as well as our individual and communal relationship with God, through committed participation in personal prayer, 神圣的敬拜, 只是行动 guided by 道德勇气.
