Mission Engagement
Through engaging seminars, thought-provoking book discussions, and innovative programs, we bring Catholic social and intellectual traditions to life—making them meaningful and relevant for all faculty and staff, especially as we address today’s most pressing issues.

As a staff member who participated in the Lane Center’s events, I feel that I am better equipped to explain to students or fellow staff members what USF’s mission is and what it is built on– a long-standing tradition of advocating for the most vulnerable and upholding dignity in every human person.
