Mission Integration
Organizational Identity
We are a community of praxis that promotes the Ignatian holistic formation of University stakeholders toward transformative engagement.
We seek to articulate and advance the Jesuit education mission by:
- Accompanying stakeholders through formation programs and services
- Integrating Ignatian dispositions into various functions of the University
- Nurturing and animating a culture of encounter, care, and service.
Mandate and Structure
The MI cluster focuses on four functional areas of Ignatian formation and social engagement that are also linked to the Universal Apostolic Preferences and the University’s strategic priority areas:
- Ignatian Spirituality Formation (ISF)
- Ignatian Leadership Formation (ILEAF)

Each subcluster is headed by an Assistant Vice President who reports directly to the Vice President for Mission Integration.

40 Days of Lent: Day 10
"Today in the middle of the week when we may be pulled to different directions, let’s imagine Christ walking with us to wherever we may be going. Let’s allow our senses to feel his presence beside us, perhaps quietly being with us, and watching over us. Nothing has drastically changed during this Lenten season in the same way that nothing has changed since that time Jesus offered his life on the cross. He is still walking with us, standing by us, loving us."
