For example, a philosophy major, after studying law at Yale, served as a special counsel
to the White House; a psychology major joined Texas Instruments as a software engineer;
a modern language major became a pilot for American Airlines; and a history major
entered graduate school at Oxford University. Science majors have earned PhD's in
humanities, drama majors have gone to medical school, and theology majors have entered
the business world.
UD students leave with more than the specific knowledge of their discipline. Armed
with the freedom of a liberal education and the wisdom of the Core, our graduates
have taken on myriad leadership roles, serving as doctors, teachers, economists, lawyers,
politicians, and even bishops. The extent to which UD students have immersed themselves
in every facet of society is made possible by UD's unique education. The tools earned
by the rigorous study of the Core texts are not merely additional; rather, they are
foundational to any noble pursuit and subsequent success.
“
Fidelity to man requires fidelity to the truth, which alone is the guarantee of freedom
and of the possibility to integral human development.
