| |  |  | THE CATHOLIC INTELLECTUAL TRADITION The only Catholic university in the nation founded to be led and staffed by laypeople, SHU is a commanding presence in modern higher learning. In the Catholic intellectual tradition, we promote engaged scholarship, one-on-one attention, whole-person development, community involvement and respect for diversity within an interdisciplinary liberal arts curriculum. Our campus hosts key conferences, lectures and landmark centers for spiritual discovery and discourse – and our president Dr. Anthony Cernera is widely published on the role of the Catholic university in today's complex world. Today, as always, our commitment to each student is unwavering. |  | |
