Fact Book 1989

              PREFACE
This is the fifteenth annual edition of the Fairfield Univ'ersity
FACT BOOK dedicated to serving frequent information needs and
interests of administration, faculty and alumni. The design of
the publication attempts to offer concise, consistent, and
relevant information on principal characteristics and strengths of
Fairfield University. You are encouraged to offer suggestions for
improvement of future issues as each year the FACT BOOK is
expanded to include pertinent areas. This year the Bellarmine
Medal of Honor Recipients are included (p. 22).
Responses to the FACT BOOK demonstrate its many applications in
the shared management, administrative, and planning activities of
Fairfield University.
My appreciation is extended to the various off ices which assisted
m e with the development of the information. I am especially
appreciative of 'the assistance from Mary-Jo Battistelli, secretary
in the Office of the Provost, who complci?ted the typing of this
FACT BOOK and to Michael Micinilio, graphic artist in the Media
Center who completed the graphs.

FAZRFIELD UNIVERSITY -
MISSION, STATEMENT ..- .
. . ... . .
'.. . . ,
I
I . ' . .
Fairfield university, foknded by: the Society of '~esusi,s a,
coeducational institution of higher learning whose primary
objectives are to develop the creatsve intellectual potential
of its students and. to foster--int-h e
m ethical and religious
values and..a sense of social respongibility. - Jesuit Education,
which-began in 1547, is committed today to.the;,serviceo f
faith, of which the promotion of justice.is an absolute
requirement. . . .. a ,
Fairfield is Catholic in both tradition and .spirit. It
celebrates the God-given dignity of every human person. As a
Catholic university it~welcomes~thosoef all beliefs and : . .
traditions who share its concerns for scholarship, justice,, . , , .
truth and -freedoy; 'and' it values .the diversity which their . .
membership brings-.to the-university community.. . ,
-- ,. . .
~airfi"e1d educates , its students- throhgh a variety of scholarly
and professional -disciplines. All of its schools share a
liberal and humanistic perspective and a commitment to
excellence. Fairfield encourages a res,pect for all the
disciplines -- their similarities, their differences, and their
interrelationships. In particular, in its undergraduate
schools it provides all students with a broadly based general
education curriculum with a special emphasis on the traditional
humanities as a complement to the more specialized preparation
in disciplines and professions provided by the major programs.
Fairfield is also committed to the needs of society for
liberally educated professionals. It meets the needs of its
students to assume positions in this society through its under-graduate
and graduate professional schools and programs.
A Fairfield education is a liberal education, characterized by
its breadth and depth. It offers opportunities for individual
and common reflection, and it provides training in such
essential human skills as analysis, synthesis, and communica-tion.
The liberally educated person is able to assimilate and
organize facts, to evaluate knowledge, to identify issues, to
use appropriate methods of reasoning and to convey conclusions
persuasively in written and spoken word. Equally essential to
liberal education is the development of the esthetic dimension
of human nature, the power to imagine, to intuit, to create,
and to appreciate. In its fullest sense liberal education
initiates students at a mature level into their culture, its
past, its present and its future.
Fairfield recognizes that learning is a life-long process and
sees the education which it provides as the foundation upon
which its students may continue to build within their chosen
areas of scholarly study or professional development. It also
seeks to foster in its students a continuing intellectual
curiosity and a desire for self-education which will extend to
the broad range of areas to which they have been introduced in
their studies.
As a community of scholars ,. Fairf ield gladly' joins in the
broader task of expanding human knowledge and deepening human
understanding, and to this end it encourages and supports the
scholarly research and artistic production of its faculty and
students. - , . ,
: -
Fairfield has a further obligation to;the wider community of
which it is .a part, to share with'its':neighbors its resources
and its special expertise for the betterment of the-community
as a whole. Facu1ty'and"students are encouraged to participate
' ' in the larger' community through service and acadeniic
activities. But most of all, Fairfield ser.ves the wider
community by educating its students to be socially aware and
morally responsible persons.
. . . :
Fairfield University-values each of its students as an
individual with unique abilities and and it- '
respects the personal and academic.free'dom of all its members.
At the same time it seeks to develop.'a'greaters ense'of
community within itself, a sense that all of its members belong
to and are involved in the University; sharing common goals and
a common commitment'to truth and justice, and.manifestfng in
their lives the'common concern for 'others which is the obliga-tion
of all ed'ucated, mature'human beings. .,. ..
