2018-2019 Academic Catalogue Ave Maria University Catalogue 2018-2019 5050 Ave Maria Blvd. Ave Maria, FL 34142 Telephone: (239) 280-2500 www.avemaria.edu July 2018 Ave Maria University All Rights Reserved Volume XVI, Number I 2018-2019 AMU Academic Catalogue / 2 2018-2019 AMU Academic Catalogue / 3 WELCOME TO AVE MARIA UNIVERSITY As President of Ave Maria University, I welcome you to one of America’s youngest and most dynamic and faithful institutions within Catholic higher education. Launched in 2003 by Domino’s Pizza magnate and philanthropist Thomas S. Monaghan, AMU offers a first-rate liberal arts curriculum and over 30 challenging undergraduate majors, as well as graduate degrees in theology. In addition to vibrant programs in the humanities, sciences, and music, the University features pre-professional and professional specializations in disciplines as diverse as nursing, accounting, and biochemistry. The University’s Core Curriculum numbers among the strongest in America and provides graduates with the tools they need to become critical thinkers, competent writers, and lovers of learning. Beginning in the Fall of 2018, the University also began to offer degrees, including a Master in Business Administration, through online learning. An Ave Maria education has been a spring board for many to promising careers and vocations. Recent alumni pursuing graduate studies have been admitted to prominent law and medical schools and other graduate programs of distinction. Those seeking employment have secured favorable placements in the marketplace. A number of AMU’s graduates have entered the seminary or religious life, while others have been called to married life – often with a fellow Ave classmate! Vocational discernment is at the heart of the Ave Maria educative experience. We believe our campus should provide an environment where young men and women can mature into responsible adults who live their faith in Jesus Christ and apply their knowledge to the challenges of the 21st century. The moral climate in our residence halls allows our students to maintain the values instilled in them by their parents, and promotes growth in the spiritual life. The hallmark of an Ave education is the movement by the student from being self-centered to other-minded. Ave has the only Mother Teresa Project in America and our students not only volunteer in the neighboring farmworker community in mentoring and Catechism programs, but they travel on missions to work with Mother Teresa’s nuns in India, Uganda, Mexico, Haiti and other countries. This academic year will be my eighth as President. It is clear that what Tom Monaghan envisioned is coming to fruition, and that the Lord is honoring His Holy Mother by blessing us with record enrollment, financial stability, and yes, beautiful, sunny Southwest Florida weather! Put simply, Ave Maria is unique, affordable, and authentically Catholic. I hope you enjoy reading about Ave Maria University and visit our website at www.avemaria.edu. Visit our campus and see for yourself why Ave Maria is attracting some of the country’s finest scholars, and students from 45 states and 18 countries. I wish you every success as you review these materials and invite you to seek further assistance from our well-qualified and student-friendly staff and faculty if you have any questions. Thank you for your interest in Ave Maria University. God bless you! With kindest regards, H.

Introduction and General Information The University is a place of concourse, whither students come from every quarter for every kind of knowledge. ... It is a place where inquiry is pushed forward, and discoveries verified and perfected, and rashness rendered innocuous, and error exposed, by the collision of mind with mind, and knowledge with knowledge. —John Henry Cardinal Newman, The Idea of a University Ave Maria University Mission Statement Founded in fidelity to Christ and His Church in response to the call of Vatican II for greater lay witness in contemporary society, Ave Maria University exists to further teaching, research, and learning at the undergraduate and graduate levels in the abiding tradition of Catholic thought in both national and international settings. The University takes as its mission the sponsorship of a liberal arts education curriculum dedicated, as articulated in the apostolic constitution Ex Corde Ecclesiae, to the advancement of human culture, the promotion of dialogue between faith and reason, the formation of men and women in the intellectual and moral virtues of the Catholic faith, and to the development of professional and pre-professional programs in response to local and societal needs. As an institution committed to Catholic principles, the University recognizes the importance of creating and maintaining an environment in which faith informs the life of the community and takes expression in all its programs. The University recognizes the central and indispensable role of the Ordinary of the Diocese of Venice in promoting and assisting in the preservation and strengthening of the University’s Catholic identity.

  • 'Solved by Sacrifice' : Austin Farrer, Fideism, and The
    ‘SOLVED BY SACRIFICE’ : AUSTIN FARRER, FIDEISM, AND THE EVIDENCE OF FAITH Robert Carroll MacSwain A Thesis Submitted for the Degree of PhD at the University of St. Andrews 2010 Full metadata for this item is available in the St Andrews Digital Research Repository at: https://research-repository.st-andrews.ac.uk/ Please use this identifier to cite or link to this item: http://hdl.handle.net/10023/920 This item is protected by original copyright ‘SOLVED BY SACRIFICE’: Austin Farrer, Fideism, and the Evidence of Faith Robert Carroll MacSwain A thesis submitted to the School of Divinity of the University of St Andrews in candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The saints confute the logicians, but they do not confute them by logic but by sanctity. They do not prove the real connection between the religious symbols and the everyday realities by logical demonstration, but by life. Solvitur ambulando, said someone about Zeno’s paradox, which proves the impossibility of physical motion. It is solved by walking. Solvitur immolando, says the saint, about the paradox of the logicians. It is solved by sacrifice. —Austin Farrer v ABSTRACT 1. A perennial (if controversial) concern in both theology and philosophy of religion is whether religious belief is ‘reasonable’. Austin Farrer (1904-1968) is widely thought to affirm a positive answer to this concern. Chapter One surveys three interpretations of Farrer on ‘the believer’s reasons’ and thus sets the stage for our investigation into the development of his religious epistemology. 2. The disputed question of whether Farrer became ‘a sort of fideist’ is complicated by the many definitions of fideism.

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.
