Teaching at Xavier

Xavier's Mission

At Xavier University of Louisiana, the mission statement is the guiding principle through which all decisions, big and small, are made. As a faculty member at Xavier, you should always be able to explain how you are living out the mission through your responsibilities in and out of the classroom.

"Xavier University of Louisiana, founded by Saint Katharine Drexel and the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament, is Catholic and historically Black. The ultimate purpose of the University is to contribute to the promotion of a more just and humane society by preparing its students to assume roles of leadership and service in a global society. This preparation takes place in a diverse learning and teaching environment that incorporates all relevant educational means, including research and community service."
