There are six aspects of Catholic campus ministry:
A.  Forming the Faith Community:  We come together as One Body to form a community of faith that is deeply aware of its connectedness to each other and to all of creation.
B.  Appropriating the Faith:  The faith of our childhood and adolescence is challenged in order to mature into an adult spirituality.
C.  Forming the Christian Conscience:  We facilitate the formation of a Christian conscience so that we can allow the in-dwelling Spirit to guide our attitudes and so that our decisions are based on Gospel values.
D.  Educating for Justice & Serving Those in Need:  We are a genuine servant community that is dedicated to the works of justice, peace, and reverence for life.
E.  Facilitating Personal Development:  We hear and share the faith stories of the whole community so that our personal development may be based on relationship and mentorship.
F.  Developing Leaders:  We tap the immense pool of talent in our students, faculty & staff and help form leaders for society and the Church.
