  • Religion at Manhattan College and the Lasallian Vision.” AXIS: Journal of Lasallian Higher Education 8, No
    Salm, Luke. “Religion at Manhattan College and the Lasallian Vision.” AXIS: Journal of Lasallian Higher Education 8, no. 1 (Institute for Lasallian Studies at Saint Mary’s University of Minnesota: 2017). © Luke Salm, FSC. Readers of this article have the copyright owner’s permission to reproduce it for educational, not-for-profit purposes, if the author and publisher are acknowledged in the copy. Religion at Manhattan College and the Lasallian Vision Luke Salm, FSC2 To begin with, we had better be clear about the meaning of that elusive word Lasallian. Sometimes it is stretched to mean almost anything, which is another way of saying it means nothing. That term makes sense only if it derives from and refers to the seventeenth century French priest whose name is John Baptist de La Salle, Founder of the Brothers of the Christian Schools. De La Salle was a man of vision, not that he had visions, but that he could see. And he not only saw things with his own two eyes, but increasingly throughout his difficult and turbulent life he saw things with the eyes of God, a faith vision. He lived constantly in the presence of God and trusted implicitly in the providence of God. He encouraged the early Brothers to cultivate this faith vision, the spirit of faith as he called it, by frequently recalling the presence of God as we still do today. In his Rule he tells the Brothers that the spirit of faith leads them not to look on anything except with the eyes of God and not to do anything except with God in view.

While the announcements presented in the following pages apply as of the date of publication, the College reserves the right to make such changes as circumstances require. IMPORTANT INFORMATION This Catalogue contains the general information necessary for those seeking admission into the programs offered by the Graduate Division of Manhattan College. It presents the curricular requirements for the various Master degrees. Applicants should be aware that the courses listed under each program are not offered every year but are offered in a cycle over a five-year period, the time allotted for the completion of all requirements for the degree. Because the majority of students matriculating for the degree are attending part-time, it is impossible to indicate the academic session when each course is expected to be offered. However, a separate printed sched- ule is published approximately two months in advance of every session (fall, spring, summer) detailing which courses are to be offered, the days, times, rooms and professors. The College reserves the right to withdraw or modify any of the courses, costs or programs listed in this cat- alogue, to cancel any course or program for which it deems registration insufficient, usually less than ten regis- trants, to make any other changes which it considers necessary or desirable. All students must provide evidence of immunization against measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) before attending classes.
