Karen Ristau, president, National Catholic Educational Association: |
"You are receiving a degree from a Catholic college – and that in itself should say something distinctive and exceptional about your education; what you have come to see; and how you will consider living your life. The mission of Mount Mary College includes the noble aim that you, its graduates, will, among other ideals, develop a deep sense of social justice. |
 |
That sense of social justice comes from the social mission of our church – based in the belief of the essential dignity of every human person – growing out of the belief that we are all loved, that we are all worthy – and therefore every believer is called to serve ‘the least of these’ to hunger and thirst for justice, to be a ‘peacemaker.’" |
