| A Le Moyne education provides you with the intellectual skills necessary to succeed in the world and, beyond that, the ethical insight to use those skills to promote a more just society. The Jesuit approach to education is characterized by a passion for academic excellence in a faith context and a commitment to using knowledge to serve others.
Catholicism in the Jesuit tradition enriches every aspect of campus life. From chapel liturgies to classroom discussions and from hospice work to impromptu get-togethers after services, the spiritual experience flourishes among Le Moyne students of all faiths. Students participate in a broad range of service opportunities through Campus Ministry – spiritual retreats, alternative break service trips, local volunteer efforts, and projects through groups such as Habitat for Humanity and Amnesty International. And, to Le Moyne students, the Jesuit priests who live on campus are not only teachers, advisors, and administrators, but the living embodiment of the College’s commitment to service and leadership. |
