Our Catholic Faith

Students laughingly describe our professors as sometimes playing devil’s advocate in the classroom — and acknowledge that it spurs them to see and understand different points of view.
Educating the Whole Person
For hundreds of years, the Catholic Church has been delivering education that takes the whole person into account. UD continues the longstanding Catholic intellectual tradition, preparing students for success beyond UD and encouraging them to make a difference in the world by providing rigorous scholarship with an emphasis on the liberal arts, a commitment to spiritual and ethical values and the development of the whole person.
The light of the Catholic faith illuminates every aspect of life at UD.
