Our Mission
Anchored in the LMU and School of Education missions, we are a team of dedicated, student-centered professionals who advocate for personal, academic, and professional growth of every student through our comprehensive support services. We are committed to ensuring that students have an excellent experience with us by fostering an education as a whole person. We offer holistic resources that empower students to successfully complete their program and achieve their career goals and aspirations.
Our Vision
We want all of our students to develop a sense of advocacy and responsibility that it will allow them to define their own success during and after their time at the LMU School of Education. We aim to cultivate educators who are guided by their moral compasses to advocate for themselves and for the students and communities they serve. We strive to produce graduates who model the intellectual, physical, and emotional support we offer at LMU in their own workplaces, as we believe these tools will equip students to be successful in any career path they take.
Our Core Values
Students are at the center of all we do. We prioritize your voices and needs in all aspects of our work. By actively listening and engaging with students, we seek to understand their unique goals, challenges, and aspirations. We encourage their self-discovery, agency, and holistic growth. We embrace change and remain flexible in designing and implementing academic plans tailored to students’ goals.
Respect forms our foundation. This includes respect for each student as an individual, as well as for the LMU community and the greater world. We cultivate a caring, compassionate, and professional environment that celebrates people of all abilities and from all walks of life. We are committed to these principles both in and out of our LMU classrooms, as well as beyond our students’ time at LMU.
Student achievements guide our actions. Our learning community uplifts academic, leadership, and personal growth of our students. In our work we emphasize advocacy, collaboration, personalized support, and empowerment, ensuring that students feel seen, heard, and valued as they navigate their academic journey at LMU. We honor and affirm all aspects of individual identity, and we embrace LMU’s diverse community, as we strive to help every student reach their full potential.
