Founded in 1843, Clarke University serves approximately 1,250 students at its 55-acre campus in Dubuque, Iowa. Academics have always been the central focus of the university, and Clarke’s strong liberal arts programs help students gain valuable experience in critical and creative thinking and advance their abilities to speak and write effectively. Students are challenged to analyze situations, solve problems, interact with people and be open to new ideas. Clarke’s liberal arts curriculum empowers students to understand the principles that underlie the major fields of knowledge — spirituality, philosophy, fine arts, humanities, social sciences, mathematics, natural sciences, and human diversity. Most importantly, students learn how all these fields of knowledge are related to each other. Clarke is a student-centered university and an ideal atmosphere in which to learn and grow. With a 11:1 student to faculty ratio, a committed and highly qualified faculty challenge students to think, search and explore. Students indicate that their close relationship with faculty is the most valuable and influential part of their Clarke career. THE MISSION We are a Catholic, coeducational, liberal arts university founded in 1843 by the Sisters of Charity of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Dubuque, Iowa. Clarke educates students at the postsecondary level in the liberal arts and sciences, the fine arts, selected professional programs, and graduate programs.

  • 2018 Iowa Religious Leaders Statement on Climate Change
    We can no longer wait… 2018 Iowa Religious Leaders Statement on Climate Change Global climate change is one of the most pressing moral challenges facing our world. Today, we call on Iowans to find and implement solutions to climate change. As religious leaders representing diverse faith traditions in Iowa, we offer the following shared, core beliefs that compel, empower, and guide faithful action. As people of faith: • We must act to solve climate change because it threatens our brothers and sisters in our neighborhoods, throughout our state, across our country, and around the world. We are all neighbors put at risk by a changing climate. • We can find solutions to climate change by embracing a spirit of hope. Earth sustains our lives. Creation provides a world of abundance. This abundance offers us the path out of our dependence on fossil fuels and the environmental destruction associated with greenhouse gas pollution. • We know climate justice requires we bear each other’s burdens equitably. It is not fair that climate change is affecting most those who are vulnerable and least able to adapt: the poor, the young, the elderly, the sick, and those living in developing countries. Solutions to climate change will unleash new economic opportunities the benefits of which must be shared equitably. • We are required to work with nature to find solutions to climate change. We are part of nature, not independent from it. Our call to be stewards of the Earth, to care for creation that nourishes us all, demands we work with nature rather than against it and share our first fruits with those who need them most.
