Pillars

The Key Elements of the Loyola Experience.

These brand pillars—or themes—provide the framework for our brand story. They define what we do and why we do it. These themes should be weaved into the stories and messages you write and share.

Mentorship and Guidance

Students at Loyola are individually taught and taught as individuals. Faculty, administrators, staff, and coaches are committed to forming genuine relationships with their students so they may serve as true mentors and guides, spurring achievement and connecting students’ passions to purpose.

Jesuit Liberal Arts Education

A Jesuit education grounded in the liberal arts helps ensure a rigorous and lasting mastery of any field of study. It fosters the qualities most needed and most sought in the new world of work. It instills a profoundly necessary commitment to ethics, responsibility, and service. It seeks nothing less than our flourishing as truly free individuals.
