"The purpose of a Gustavus education is to help its students attain their full potential as people, to develop in them a capacity and passion for lifelong learning, and to prepare them for fulfilling lives of leadership and service in society. That's why we foster a community where a mature understanding of the Christian faith and lives of service are nurtured and students are encouraged to work toward a just and peaceful world." [Source]
