Launched ten years ago in Ypsilanti, Michigan as Ave Maria College, the institution was envisioned as a comprehensive liberal arts University off ering baccalaureate and graduate degrees in which teaching and research were major foci, with all of its activities refl ecting a joyful fi delity to the Magisterium of the Church. Since its founding, the University has increased in size, expanded its scope of programs and services, moved its location to Southwest Florida, incorporated into its structure a branch campus in Central America, and, even at this young age, has developed into one of the country’s best known Catholic universities. The University is characterized by its distinctive campus designed in the tradition of Frank Lloyd Wright, as well as its distinguished and high quality faculty and staff personnel. The University also features a well-qualifi ed student body composed of students from across the nation and the globe, a distinctive curriculum grounded in the Core Curriculum, and a robust student life program that responds to the spiritual, physical, co-curricular, and leadership-development needs of the student body. As you examine this publication, I know that you will discover these characteristics as they are refl ected in its content and descriptions of the University’s programs and services.
