CFA Council
The CFA Council supports the dean by providing advice, counsel and philanthropic support, to ultimately advance the mission and growth of the college and, by extension, the university. This group of leaders helps the dean sustain our significant commitment to liberal arts education, fostering a dynamic and diverse learning environment, while placing social justice principles unique to our Jesuit education firmly planted in the arts, communication, and performance.
The CFA Council seeks to enhance our current assets and further inspire our students and faculty to strive towards the magis – that restless desire to do more in the form of service towards the greater good.
