respecting individual differences and adhering to the principle that mutual love
and respect should animate every aspect of University life. Through the
multi-faceted programs it supports (such as the Freshman Mentoring Program,
Academic Advancement Program, Mentoring Programs, etc.) the Center undertakes
the challenge of creating at Villanova University an academically distinctive,
culturally diverse learning community where all members live empathically and
lead effectively.
