"There is no higher religion than human service. To work for the common good is the greatest creed." -Albert Schweitzer OVERVIEW

The University of San Diego is an independent Catholic institution of higher education located on 180 acres overlooking San Diego's Mission Bay. USO is known for its commitment to teaching, the liberal arts, the formation of values and community involvement. The institution takes pride in the personalized approach and holistic view of students it brings to the educational process. Chartered in 1949, USO enrolls nearly 6,000 students who may choose from more than 50 undergraduate and graduate degree programs. The university's academic units include the College of Arts and Sciences, and the Schools of Business Administration, Education, Law and Nursing. The School of Graduate and Continuing Education coor- dinates the graduate programs of all schools with the exception of the Law School. Throughout its history, USO has remained committed to the ideals of liberal education and to recognizing the dignity of men and women as human beings and as creatures of God. As a Catholic institution, the university is committed to examination of the Catholic tradition as the basis of a continu- ing search for meaning in contemporary life. A COMMITMENT That is the type of civic leadership so critical to creating a compassionate com- munity in which the dignity of all human beings is valued and respected.

He tells the story of one family from the first Habitat project in Georgia, a tale of a home built with sweat equity and a no- interest mortgage finally paid off. And how a couple who never made it past grade school eventually saw all of their children graduate from college. " Having the chance to own their own home completely changed their expectations for what's possible," he observes. Dennis Briscoe subscribes to the Humanity, an organization which has Dr. Briscoe remembers vividly the philosophy that almost anything is possible, provided some 4,000 homes for the working life experiences which shaped his own if only one's expectations are set high enough. poor worldwide. perceptions about bringing change to the He validated that observation when " Everybody in this town believes status quo.

IV where he started a chapter of Habitat for chapter the past two years. Yet, Habitat's have been." His religious upbringing was another cardinal factor. " Somewhere early on I defined myself as a lay minister, and I have never seen it differently. I thought seriously about entering the seminary when I was in college, even applied for a scholar- ship. But I have never been comfortable proselytizing. My strongest point of view is to live my faith, to serve other people." Then a few years ago, Dr. Briscoe was approached by representatives from Beyond War. " They really brought me back to my roots. It was a case of ·wow, where have you guys been!' " He started a local chapter of Beyond War, and subsequently has helped organize several organizations involved in social justice causes. " I like to talk, to make the presenta- tions, but I have a strong need to be autonomous, and not much interest in management, once things get going. That's why teaching fits-I like the people side of business, not the numbers side." Dr. Briscoe sees nothing unusual about a business professor devoting much of his time to causes. "There probably is a stereotype of business professors, business- men, of not being involved . But my experi- ence has been very different. Maybe this campus is unique, but I think the stereotype is wrong. Most successful businessmen are involved."

In 1970, at Mother Teresa's request, she accepted the position of regional chairperson of the organization. Since Mother Teresa's visit to Tijuana in 1988, the Missionaries of Charity have brought three groups of nuns, brothers and all of their priests to the city, establishing facilities to house and feed the poor. Dr. Figueredo is available to the clinic staffs in Tijuana every day of the week for consulta- tions and help with problem solving. " My medical work with patients really has been an enormous satisfaction," she says. " It satisfies my need to help people, which is the basis for my involvement. And if you look at it objectively, it's really just another way to help people in need, wherever you find them."

"My mom was my mentor. She was a person of real faith. She raised us telling us that you share what you have. It mushrooms back; you receive so much more than you give."
