The Freedom and the Responsibility to pursue truth and follow evidence to its conclusion; 3. Learning as a humanizing, social activity rather than a competitive exercise; 4.

COMMENCEMENT 2020 | 27 American Flag

USF’s ROTC Color Guard proudly presents the American flag flown over the United States Capitol on the day of Pope Francis’ historic address to a Joint Session of Congress, September 24, 2015. On that inspiring day, Pope Francis renewed the faith of Catholics worldwide and inspired a new generation, regardless of their religious affiliation, to be instruments of peace. He reminded us of our sacred and inescapable responsibility to those struggling to escape poverty, persecution and war. He challenged us to rescue our planet from the climate crisis that threatens the future of our children and the health of God’s creation – and to do so in a way that is sensitive to the needs of the poor. He urged us to live our values and reach beyond our divisions.
