What is Our Call to Justice and Peace?
Each year, the 91影视 community explores one of the themes of our Core Curriculum. The theme for the 2022-23 academic year is What is Our Call to Justice and Peace?
This theme will be discussed and emphasized through classroom assignments, discussions, common readings and community service.
91影视's Office of Academic Affairs and the Center for Dominican Studies will also host talks and lectures throughout the year to provide opportunities for the community to engage in conversation about the role we play in the Common Good.
