The original schools— Nursing and Medicine––have been joined by Allied Health Professions, Dentistry, Public Health, the Graduate School, and the Faculty of Religion. The University, operated by the Seventh-day Adventist church, is committed to the vision of its founders and is sustained by its close association with the church. Loma Linda University is a Seventh-day Adventist coeducational, health-sciences institution located in inland southern California. It is part of the Seventh-day Adventist system of higher education. Professional curricula are offered by the Schools of Allied Health Professions, Dentistry, Public Health, Medicine, and Nursing. Graduate programs in various biomedical sciences are offered by departments of the schools. The profession- al curricula of the University are approved by their respective professional organizations. The most current campus census figures (1999-2000) indicate that the core of the combined faculties consists of 1,051 full-time teachers. Part-time and voluntary teachers, largely clinicians in the professional curricula, bring the total to 2,254. Men and women from 87 nations are represented in the 1999-2000 enrollment of 3,410. PPHHIILLOOSSOOPPHHYY A s implied by its motto, “TO MAKE MAN WHOLE,” the University affirms these tenets as central to its view of education: God is the creator and sustainer of the universe. Mankind’s fullest development entails a growing understanding of the individ- ual in relation both to God and society. The quest for truth and professional expertise, in an environment permeated by religious values, benefits the individual and society and advances the min- istry of the Seventh-day Adventist church. 9 OUR MISSION OOuurr MMiissssiioonn L oma Linda University, a Seventh-day Adventist Christian health-sciences institu- tion, seeks to further the healing and teaching ministry of Jesus Christ “to make man whole” by: Educating ethical and proficient Christian health professionals and scholars through instruction, example, and the pursuit of truth; Expanding knowledge through research in the biological, behavioral, physi- cal, and environmental sciences and applying this knowledge to health and disease; Providing comprehensive, competent, and compassionate health care for the whole person through faculty, students, and alumni.
