  • Conrad Grebel University College
    Conrad Grebel University College GREBEL NOW Defining Words “We want the words of our mission statement to come alive this year, and we want our various and individual names to come alive with the uniqueness and distinctiveness that characterizes each of us.” With this bold statement, President Henry Paetkau has set the tone for the entire school year. During Grebel’s commencement ceremony, students were asked to reflect on the individual words in the mission statement. Henry highlighted the verbs that call to action and the nouns that define the purpose, content, and meaning of that action. “What do those words, and combinations of words, actually mean? What gives them meaning? And how do they move from mere letters on a page to life and action?” In an effort to answer these huge questions, Henry postulated that “in our life together they begin to have content and meaning. They begin to carry us to new places and define us in new ways, even as we define them in new and unique ways.” Students, faculty, and staff were invited to sign a stylized mission statement - a symbol for the Grebel community this year. It hangs in the Atrium as “a collection of names and words that will be arranged and rearranged in many and diverse ways to give our time together meaning and purpose, to bring us joy and beauty, sometimes challenge and often comfort us, conjuring up our deepest hopes and fondest dreams,” noted Henry.

The saying goes like this: "We have not inherited this from our forefathers, we have borrowed it from our children."
