Philosophy of Avila University
Avila University, sponsored by the Sisters
of St. Joseph of Carondelet, is an academic community dedicated
to education in the liberal arts and the professional areas.
Avila is a Catholic university that seeks
to foster the intellectual, spiritual and social growth of its
members. The university community includes individuals with a
diversity of religious convictions.
The administration, faculty, staff and
students work together to create an environment wherein the
quality of Christian hope permeates and enlivens an objective
search for truth.
Avila students are encouraged to develop
values which enable them to grow in freedom and responsibility
as they respond to contemporary, social and moral issues.
The Avila community provides an atmosphere
of faith and support in which members may gain insight into
themselves, their relationship with God, and their place of
service in the world community.
