    a message from the president Campion is different. Different in the degree we offer; different in our approach; different in our purpose. Campion is the only Catholic liberal arts college in Australia. As a fully-accredited tertiary institution, we go directly to the core of education, faith and human flourishing. Campion goes to the core of education and immerses you in a core curriculum that all students study together — a curriculum designed not just to impart information but also to train you how to think. And our small size enables a genuine community of learning. Campion also goes to the core of faith. Where many approach university as nothing more than career training, we focus on your entire formation - spiritual, intellectual, social and vocational. We are Catholic in identity but desire to help all students live out their faith in all of life. Finally, Campion goes to the core of human flourishing. A generation from now, you will likely be serving in influential fields such as law, business, medicine, government, arts and media; you will be forming families or perhaps serving in clerical roles and other religious vocations; and you will be professors at the most respected institutions in Australia. In these positions you will exercise reflective, responsible leadership, bringing to bear the skills, character, wisdom and vision that you cultivated in early adulthood. Imagine the difference that a core, Christ-centered liberal arts education will make on your formation, and then imagine the difference you, as graduates, will make on our society! Your university years will be some of the most important of your life.

  • The Austin Woodbury Archives
    Th e Austin Woodbury Archives: Collection and Preservation of Historical Materials by Angela Kolar, College Librarian, Campion College ith the great emphasis of aligning our libraries with the most contemporary IT developments and W matching our digital and online services along with major academic libraries, and in the thrust of all this activity to constantly maintain the relevance of our libraries, we can overlook the distinctive nature and responsibility of theological libraries and libraries with a strong theological component. Th e Campion College Library is a liberal arts library in the Catholic tradition with no vocational subjects, the only one of its kind in Australia – liberal arts meaning the inclusion of Th eology along with Philosophy, History, Literature, from antiquity through the medieval period to modern times based on the early Oxford tradition of incorporating Th eology and Church History as the major fulcrum around which the related subjects develop. Th e College occupies what was once a Marist Seminary continuing an historical line from a teaching seminary, to the establishment of Campion College for the formation of young students in the Catholic faith in the heritage of the European western traditions of historical inquiry and learning. Th e Marist Seminary at Old Toongabbie (the third settlement in the historical establishment of Sydney), was the fi rst Marist Seminary in Australia. Th e Marist Fathers originated in France founded by Fr Jean Claude Colin in 1836.1 One of the fi rst major missions of the Marist Fathers was to the Oceania Region at the end of 1836.2 St Peter Chanel was a member of that original missionary group.3 He was martyred in 1841 in the South Pacifi c on the Island of Futuna after having succeeded in converting the son of the king of the island to the Christian faith.

  • Campion College
    Campion College Old Toongabbie, Australia www.campion.edu.au Overview Education today is experiencing the same globalization that other sectors are. It is not surprising, then, that there would be an op- tion for U.S. Catholics to be able to study at a faithful Catholic college in distant lands, and Campion College outside of Sydney, Austra- lia, represents one such opportunity.

  • The Campion STUDENT HANDBOOK 2021
    The Campion STUDENT HANDBOOK 2021 Welcome to the academic year! I would particularly like to welcome all new students to the College. Campion College is a unique institution in Australia - the first institute of higher education dedicated to the Liberal Arts. Here at Campion we are committed to the Catholic Liberal Arts tradition, whereby an education is truly about the fostering of the life of the mind and the pursuit of wisdom. In order to think freely as humans we need the tools that liberate us to know and contemplate all that is good and true. These tools are what Campion provides. Engaging with ideas, reflecting on the big questions, knowing our past, thinking logically, investigating the insights of faith and reason, reading great works, constructing arguments, are just some of the ways that the life of the mind is fostered at Campion College. Campion, though, is not just about the life of the mind; we attempt to engage and to form the whole person. Grounded in the Catholic tradition, we see no conflict between a dedicated life of study and the flourishing of the whole person. At the heart of Catholic culture is liturgy and prayer from which flows a social, artistic and sporting life that is truly integrated with the intellectual life. Here at Campion there are many opportunities to participate in this culture as well as space for you to contribute your own initiatives in developing the life of the College. I invite you to participate fully in all that is offered. As part of educating you in wisdom there is special care taken at Campion in relation to your individual academic development.

It has been accepted for inclusion by an authorized administrator. For more information, please contact [email protected]. 1 Importing the American Liberal Arts College? Kristine Mitchell and Cotten Seiler The liberal arts model of higher education is simultaneously under attack in the United States— the place where it is most entrenched—and being embraced, at least in part, elsewhere in the world. In this essay, we look at the utilitarian concerns that motivate these domestic and international shifts, paying special attention to what Chinese experiments with liberal arts education might mean for future developments in that country. “Irrelevant”? The Attack on the Liberal Arts Model in the United States In recent years, there have been a number of high-profile challenges to the funding of liberal arts disciplines in American public universities. Allocation of public funds to these fields is portrayed as wasteful and decadent by a number of prominent and vocal critics. Florida governor Rick Scott said in a 2011 interview that he wanted to shift funds away from programs like anthropology (his daughter’s major!) and instead “spend our money getting people science, technology, engineering and math degrees. That’s what our kids need to focus all of their time and attention on: Those type of degrees that, when they get out of school, they can get a job [sic].”1 The idea was echoed more recently by North Carolina governor Pat McCrory.
