Encourage an overall NU vision that institutionally honors the spiritual well-being of all those in its campus community, neighborhood community, and world community. Build a campus atmosphere of active interfaith dialogue and cooperative engagement among faith groups that promotes understanding and respect among individuals, as well as a healthy commitment to one’s own faith. Help improve the overall breadth of opportunity and quality of life for students at NU. Foster a program of social action and volunteerism in the community, which is informed at its root by spiritual values and imperatives. Support, embrace and respect the richness of diversity on all levels, including for those among and within faith traditions; those who are marginalized within their faith communities; and those who hold to no particular spiritual tradition.
