UNIVERSITY MISSION STATEMENT

Georgetown is a Catholic and Jesuit, student-centered research university. Established in 1789 in the spirit of the new republic, the University was founded on the principle that serious and sustained discourse among people of different faiths, cultures, and beliefs promotes intellectual, ethical and spiritual understanding. We embody this principle in the diversity of our students, faculty and staff, our commitment to justice and the common good, our intellectual openness and our international character. An academic community dedicated to creating and communicating knowledge, Georgetown provides excellent undergraduate, graduate and professional education in the Jesuit tradition for the glory of God and the well-being of humankind.

Georgetown educates women and men to be reﬂ ective lifelong learners, to be responsible and active participants in civic life, and to live generously in service to others.

The Hoyas endured a trying season with ups and downs. In its fi rst season as a full member of the BIG EAST Conference, Georgetown posted a 5-12 overall record with a 0-6 mark in conference play for a seventh place fi nish. In the season opener on August 26, the Hoyas struggled to get anything going offensively and were defeated on the road by St. Joseph’s, 3-0. However, in its second contest, Georgetown was able to reverse its fortunes. Katie Lachman scored two goals and Willemijn Wijsman added a goal and an assist as Georgetown recorded its fi st win of the year, 3-0, over St. Francis (Pa.).
