Inspired by
the rich intellectual and experiential traditions of East and West,

whole person, cultivating academic excellence and contemplative insight in order
to infuse knowledge with wisdom. The University nurtures in its students a
lifelong joy in learning, a critical intellect, the sense of purpose that

ethnic and cultural differences for their essential role in education. It
embraces the richness of human diversity with the aim of fostering a more just

humanity.
