Mission Priority Examen
Loyola participated in the Mission Priority Examen during the 2019 – 2022 academic year. The Mission Priority Examen invites the Loyola community to engage in institutional reflection on the mission and to commit to a set of priorities for faithfully and creatively promoting our Catholic, Jesuit identity and values in the years to come. The Office of Mission & Identity oversees the ongoing facilitation of the priorities set forth through the Examen process. Here is the report from the last Mission Priority Examen. Here is general information about this important endeavor.
