D.E.T.A.I.L.S.

We believe that excellence is the result of a lifelong pursuit of the highest standards. 在国库, our collective quest is to earn merit through commitment to rigorous scholarship, cultural literacy, and high ethical standards.

We believe that individuals achieve high standards when supported by the collective work of others. We reinforce this value by constantly creating opportunities to collaborate both inside and outside of traditional alliances at our University, our proximate community, and the world.
