Our Mission: Creative and ethical leadership for the 21st-century.

Our Values: Respect, Courage, ᎦᏚᎩ (Gadugi, a Cherokee word meaning “working together for everyone’s mutual benefit”).

Our Curriculum: Contemporary, innovative, inclusive, and global. An extraordinary range of courses informed by cutting-edge theoretical perspectives, teaching and research methods, and vehicles for reporting and representing knowledge. And we do so in search of the myriad answers to a question that is perennial in its timeliness:  What is America?
