The Division of Mission and Heritage promotes faith development and spiritual well being for the College community. Grounded in the good news of Jesus the Christ, we draw on the richness of our Catholic, Norbertine and liberal arts traditions to encourage reflective action. We work to enliven the core values of St. Norbert College by integrating faith and reason in the search for truth and wisdom. Through educational and transforming spiritual experiences, we seek to build a culture that prepares members of the College community for every good work.
The division consists of the Office of the Vice President for Mission and Heritage, Campus Ministry, the Peace and Justice Center and the Program of Faith, Learning & Vocation. Collaboration with the St. Norbert College Parish, the Office of Norbertine Life and Vocation as well as the Center for Norbertine Studies supports and enhances division initiatives.
