THE PRESIDENT'S PEACE COMMISSION
The purpose of the President's Peace Commission is to foster ethical commitment to participate in the establishment of world peace. That purpose recognizes that a respect for human rights and the dignity of all people is essential to any such commitment.
The Commission serves to create within the St. Mary's University community an awareness of the Roman Catholic perspective as a foundation for directing the dialogue among the broad and varied human and religious enterprises, themselves directed toward peace. It especially takes direction from the United States Catholic Conference and the Association of Catholic Colleges and Universities.
The Peace Commission, founded in 1984, is comprised of students, staff, and faculty, all with equal status.If you would like more information about the President's Peace Commission, please contact any one of its members:
