Overview
What does it mean that Saint Joseph’s College calls itself a Catholic College “sponsored by the Sisters of Mercy”? During the course of the academic year this series of six sessions will explore Saint Joseph’s values and history, its relationship to the Catholic intellectual tradition, its foundation by the Sisters of Mercy, and how each of us contributes to its mission. One need not be Catholic to take part in these sessions; they are designed to inform you about Saint Joseph’s mission, including its Catholic and Mercy identity, and to invite you to find your own place within it, regardless of your religious affiliation. These sessions are not designed to convert you to Catholicism. Rather, it is our hope that Saint Joseph’s history of inviting all persons of good will to have a place at the table will inspire you to make the most of your role here, especially in support of our students in their intellectual, personal, and spiritual growth.
