“We always conceive of our students as bold divers, going down and seeking. We believe in them as ones who believe in somewhere, who will go with full heart and faith into the difficult thing. Our dream is to see them break the surface and emerge having done that difficult thing, bringing up meaning where otherwise there would be little; exploring and mapping landscapes of experience, inner questions, and personal texts; opening up to a community of different minds; and defining value where otherwise there would be none.”
