Liberal Education
That perfection of the Intellect, which is the result of Education, to be imparted to individuals in their respective measures is the clear, calm, accurate vision and comprehension of all things, as far as the finite mind can embrace them, each in its place, and with its own characteristics upon it.
- John Henry Cardinal Newman
Because the University of St. Francis holds learning to be a life-long process aimed at the full development of the human person, the University strives to prepare its students to seek truth and excellence and to exercise habits of sound judgment. To this end, the University espouses a liberal education designed to introduce the student to various areas of knowledge and the modes of inquiry associated with them. The steady pursuit of truth and excellence, the mastery of broad areas of learning, and the study of great works contribute to the perfection of students’ intellectual powers. The knowledge, dispositions, and intellectual skills developed through liberal education prepare students to assume roles of leadership in their careers and communities. And yet, liberal education is offered as a good in itself: it is a significant achievement to attain some measure of that perfection of the intellect which Cardinal Newman describes above as a “clear, calm, accurate vision.” Based on the conversation of the great minds of all ages, liberal education is rooted in our University of St. Francis heritage; our faculty and students seek to carry on the search for truth in a community of faith and learning.
At the University of St. Francis, a liberal education integrates:
- general education, which is the part of a liberal education curriculum shared by all students;
- a choice of a major program of study, which is the in-depth study of one or more disciplines; and
- other transformational experiences such as those encountered through University Ministry, internships, research programs, service learning, clubs, or athletics.
The general education curriculum includes two foundations courses taken in the freshman year. These two courses are required of students entering the University as freshmen. The interconnected courses of the Foundations program are designed to introduce students to liberal education. Foundations I – Bona Ventura: The Cosmic Journey uses an integrative approach to prepare students for academic success while helping them transition to university life. The academic content utilizes a contemporary framework known as “Big History,” a narrative of our universe that begins with the Big Bang, progresses steadily through time marking particular changes or “thresholds,” and ends with a projection into the future. Foundations II – Continuing the Journey focuses on an evidence-based writing process within the context of courses that reflect the faculty member’s academic field of study and connect with “thresholds”/key ideas found in the first semester course.
Upon graduation the USF student in the undergraduate programs should manifest:
- A sense of ethics and values reflecting the religious foundations of USF and its Franciscan charism
- evidence of having embarked on a personal search for truth, meaning, and faith, including an understanding of and respect for Catholic ideals
- understanding of and sensitivity to values including: personal integrity, respect for the dignity of others, and reverence for creation, compassion, justice, and peacemaking

- Ability to communicate complex ideas in written and oral form in various situations and with diverse audiences
- Intellectual competencies, curiosity and habits of mind that foster continual pursuit of knowledge and independent thought
- facility in quantitative reasoning, as well as scientific and technological literacy
- aesthetic awareness and appreciation
- ability to analyze and interpret historical data; to understand methods and analyze concepts from philosophy, theology, and the social sciences
