About Georgetown University Established in 1789, Georgetown is the nation’s oldest Catholic and Jesuit university. Draw- ing upon this legacy, we provide students with a world-class learning experience focused on educating the whole person through exposure to different faiths, cultures and beliefs. With our Jesuit values and location in Washington, D.C., Georgetown offers students a distinct opportunity to learn, experience and understand more about the world. Georgetown is com- prised of four schools: the College, the School of Foreign Service, the Business School, and the School of Nursing and Health Studies. Currently, over 7,000 undergraduate students attend Georgetown. The school colors are blue and gray, and the school mascot is Jack, the bulldog. About the Berkley Center for Religion, Peace, and World Affairs The Berkley Center for Religion, Peace, and World Affairs at Georgetown University, creat- ed within the Office of the President in 2006, is dedicated to the interdisciplinary study of religion, ethics, and public life. Through research, teaching, and service, the center explores global challenges of democracy and human rights; economic and social development; inter- national diplomacy; and interreligious understanding. Two premises guide the center’s work: that a deep examination of faith and values is critical to address these challenges, and that the open engagement of religious and cultural traditions with one another can promote peace. About the Doyle Engaging Difference Initiative The Doyle Engaging Difference Initiative is a campus-wide collaboration between the Berkley Center and the Center for New Designs in Learning and Scholarship to strengthen the uni- versity’s core commitment to tolerance and diversity and to enhance global awareness of the challenges and opportunities of an era of increasing interconnectedness. The Doyle Initiative supports the work of the President’s Challenge on campus. 3 About the Center for Social Justice Research, Teaching and Service Dedicated since its founding in 1789 to excellence in education that is rooted in service to the Church and to the democratic ideals of the new nation, Georgetown University entered the third millennium with a firmly grounded commitment to “justice and the common good,” as its mission statement proclaims. The Center for Social Justice Research, Teaching and Service (CSJ), which opened its doors in January 2001, is a concrete and imaginative manifestation of that commitment. In order to advance justice and the common good, CSJ promotes and integrates community-based research, teaching and service by collaborating with diverse partners and communities. About Campus Ministry and the Office of Mission and Ministry The Office of Mission and Ministry advances the Catholic identity, Ignatian heritage, and Jesuit mission of Georgetown University, the oldest Catholic and Jesuit university in the country. The office supports the integration of learning, faith and service through a broad array of programs that engage students, faculty, staff, University leadership, and alumni in the understanding and practice of our religious identity, values and commitments. Each year, thousands of individuals participate in the programs of the Office of Mission and Ministry: retreats, seminars, lectures, national and international immersion experi- ences, service projects, and opportunities for worship and spiritual reflection on campus, on location, and on-line. As a Catholic and Jesuit university, we respect and value the wide variety of religious and humanist perspectives of our colleagues. We strive to repre- sent a “centered pluralism” in our offerings and respectfully engage the particular tradi- tions represented in our community. 4 Campus Directions Main Gates to Gaston Hall (on the top floor of Healy Hall) From the University’s main entrance on 37th and O Streets, walk towards the John Carroll statue and enter Healy Hall from the right-most entrance.
