University’s Mission Integration Statement

University’s Mission Integration Statement
Through academic excellence, our values and guiding virtues, leadership, and collaboration, Molloy University strives to identify barriers for members of our community. Molloy University will actively work to dismantle all barriers, ensuring that all students, faculty, staff, and administrators are recognized and honored as integral to the institution's success.
The University is committed to fostering a welcoming and supportive environment in keeping with our Catholic and Dominican heritage and mission, defined by an understanding that our community draws strength from its diversity. Molloy seeks to nurture attitudes and behaviors that promote global awareness, inclusive sensibilities, and respect for individuals’ diverse experiences as informed by race, religion, socio-economic status, gender, sexual orientation, country of origin, (dis)ability, ideology, and other expressions of human difference and allow for respectful dialogue (disputatio) on issues of importance. As part of this commitment, Molloy denounces all forms of bigotry and bias.
Consistent with the above declaration and Catholic and Dominican values, Molloy asks every member of the community to recognize their responsibility to promote the values and guiding virtues of the community. Recognizing that our institution has work to do to achieve our goals, all members of the Molloy University community are collectively responsible for actively:
- promoting our values and guiding virtues in all planning, policy, decision-making, procedural, administrative, and academic operations throughout the University.
- standing up against any behavior or action that is diversity-intolerant, exclusionary, and/or discriminatory.
- promoting a campus environment that continuously works for greater equity through leveling access of opportunity for all.
