Philosophy
Human
dignity, health, and safety are three of an
individual's most prized possessions and,
as such, should be protected. The professional
programs offered in this college were founded
in response to the needs of individuals. The
education of students in this college embraces
knowledge from diverse sources, including
a liberal education. Students graduating from
this college should be prepared to examine
their roles and modify practice in response
to new information. They should be able to
act as catalysts in initiating and implementing
new patterns of practice aimed at bettering
the human condition. For these reasons, education
is directed toward inspiring and developing
problem-solving and creative capabilities
in students. Additionally, pre-professional
and professional education must be regarded
as preparation for a lifetime of continued
learning, which enhances the process of self-actualization
for the individual.
