The Sisters of Notre Dame founded Emmanuel College to provide an excellent liberal arts education based on Catholic principles to women in the Boston area who might not otherwise have had that opportunity. The founding mission remains vital as the college educates students for today and for the next century. The college's mission reflects the religious and educational mission of a Catholic church committed to human rights, social justice, and world peace. As part of its religious identity, the college encourages students and faculty of all religious backgrounds to learn and to teach in an environment that is shaped by an engagement with intellectual and moral issues. As a liberal arts college, Emmanuel enables students to cultivate both the means of acquiring and evaluating knowledge and the imagination to shape new and alternative ways of perceiving, thinking, and creating. By offering a variety of career-oriented programs, informed by the liberal arts disciplines, the college prepares students for professional fields, and develops the skills and knowledge that can be applied to diverse and changing circumstances. This link between the liberal arts and career-oriented programs at Emmanuel reflects the college's sense of responsibility to students for the lives they will create and for their lifelong need to identify changing talents and concerns, to maintain the analytical, communicative, and creative skills necessary for growth, to discern worthwhile work, and to bring ethical standards and moral sensitivities to all endeavors. Emmanuel is situated in the city of Boston at the intersection of the city's educational, cultural, and medical centers. The college's urban location provides special opportunities as well as responsibilities. Through its presence and its programs, Emmanuel College strives to serve the community from which it receives so much enrichment. As a women's college, Emmanuel has maintained a continuing commitment to educate women of all ages in an environment that supports the conviction that women have the right to pursue the full range of academic experiences and professional opportunities. Building upon the critical abilities developed by a liberal arts education and religious and ethical perspectives, Emmanuel College assists students to reflect upon their experiences as women. In Emmanuel College's adult and graduate programs, men are admitted and encouraged to share in and benefit from this educational mission. Courses, programs, flexible formats, and institutes have been developed that offer women and men adult learners and graduate students the richness of the liberal arts tradition as well as career preparation and reflection on critical contemporary issues.
