evolved into a beautiful and vibrant place where people of diverse backgrounds combine their talents and energies to make the world a better place . One needn't look far for evidence that USD has come of age. The legacy of campus development begun by President Emeritus Author Hughes continues into the new millennium. On the east end of campus, the Jenny Craig Pavilion, the state-of-the-art home-of our athletic teams, opened last fall. On the west, ground has been broken for the site of the Joan B. Kroc Institute for Peace and Justice, a site destined to play a major role in advancing the cause of peace around the globe. In the classrooms, labs and lecture halls in b,etween, we are educating a_diverse student body to become leaders in a multicultural society, and in the case of our computer technology and our new e-commerce major, in fields that did not exist when the university was founded. As we work to meet tomorrow's challenges, USD in some very important ways remains the same campus Bishop Charles Francis Buddy and Mother Rosalie Hill envisioned more than five decades ago. The university is dedicated to development of the whole person - intellectual, spiritual, physical and cultural-and to recognizing the dignity of each individual. One of the enduring characteristics of a USD education is that our graduates understand they will use the knowledge they gain here in service to humanity. On behalf of our students, faculty and staff, thank you for your interest in the University of San Diego.
