Our Catholic intellectual tradition (CIT) is the foundation for so much of what we do here at ACU but few of us have taken the time to intentionally plumb the beauty and depth of this 2000-year-old tradition. In this interactive session participants will dive into what we mean we talk about CIT and explore the major concepts and themes that emerge. Participants will be asked to explore how these concepts and themes are relevant to their daily lives and how they can bring them life in their role at ACU.
This session stands alone but is also one of six sessions in the mission statement module series.
