    Form 990 Part III Line 1 THE COLLEGE OF THE HOLY CROSS IS, BY TRADITION AND CHOICE, A JESUIT LIBERAL ARTS COLLEGE SERVING THE CATHOLIC COMMUNITY, AMERICAN SOCIETY AND THE WIDER WORLD.
    AS A LIBERAL ARTS COLLEGE, HOLY CROSS PURSUES EXCELLENCE IN TEACHING, LEARNING, AND RESEARCH. ALL WHO SHARE ITS LIFE ARE CHALLENGED TO BE OPEN TO NEW IDEAS, TO BE PATIENT WITH AMBIGUITY AND UNCERTAINTY, TO COMBINE A PASSION FOR TRUTH WITH RESPECT FOR THE VIEWS OF OTHERS. INFORMED BY THE PRESENCE OF DIVERSE INTERPRETATIONS OF THE HUMAN EXPERIENCE. HOLY CROSS SEEKS TO BUILD A COMMUNITY MARKED BY FREEDOM, MUTUAL RESPECT, AND CIVILITY. BECAUSE THE SEARCH FOR MEANING AND VALUE IS AT THE HEART OF THE INTELLECTUAL LIFE, CRITICAL EXAMINATION OF FUNDAMENTAL RELIGIOUS AND PHILOSOPHICAL QUESTIONS IS INTEGRAL TO LIBERAL ARTS EDUCATION. DIALOGUE ABOUT THESE QUESTIONS AMONG PEOPLE FROM DIVERSE ACADEMIC DISCIPLINES AND RELIGIOUS TRADITIONS REQUIRES EVERYONE TO ACKNOWLEDGE AND RESPECT DIFFERENCES.
    THE FACULTY AND STAFF OF HOLY CROSS, NOW PRIMARILY LAY AND RELIGIOUSLY AND CULTURALLY DIVERSE, ALSO AFFIRM THE MISSION OF HOLY CROSS AS A JESUIT COLLEGE. AS SUCH, HOLY CROSS SEEKS TO EXEMPLIFY THE LONGSTANDING DEDICATION OF THE SOCIETY OF JESUS TO THE INTELLECTUAL LIFE AND ITS COMMITMENT TO THE SERVICE OF FAITH AND PROMOTION OF JUSTICE. THE COLLEGE IS DEDICATED TO FORMING A COMMUNITY WHICH SUPPORTS THE INTELLECTUAL GROWTH OF ALL ITS MEMBERS WHILE OFFERING THEM OPPORTUNITIES FOR SPIRITUAL AND MORAL DEVELOPMENT.
    SINCE 1843, HOLY CROSS HAS SOUGHT TO EDUCATE STUDENTS WHO, AS LEADERS IN BUSINESS, PROFESSIONAL AND CIVIC LIFE, WOULD LIVE BY THE HIGHEST INTELLECTUAL AND ETHICAL STANDARDS. IN SERVICE OF THIS IDEAL, HOLY CROSS ENDEAVOURS TO CREATE AN ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH INTEGRATED LEARNING IS A SHARED RESPONSIBILITY, PURSUED IN CLASSROOM AND LABORATORY, STUDIO AND THEATER, RESIDENCE AND CHAPEL, SHARED RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE LIFE AND GOVERNANCE OF THE COLLEGE SHOULD LEAD ALL ITS MEMBERS TO MAKE THE BEST OF THEIR OWN TALENTS, TO WORK TOGETHER, TO BE SENSITIVE TO ONE ANOTHER, TO SERVE OTHERS, AND TO SEEK JUSTICE WITHIN AND BEYOND THE HOLY CROSS COMMUNITY.
