About
DeSales really is different. There’s a positive spirit and vibe here that’s difficult to describe, but easy to appreciate.
Yes, we have a gorgeous, lush campus with modern buildings. Yes, our faculty are extremely accomplished, experienced, and dedicated. Yes, we have some of the best labs, learning technology, and facilities around. And yes, everyone is warm and welcoming. We’re the kind of people who hold open doors for each other—literally and metaphorically.
It’s all of that…but more. Thanks to our Salesian identity, our campus is infused with a positive, upbeat attitude and a belief that big results come from small actions. This is not a place where you can remain anonymous. Here, you’re a valued member of a community that truly knows you and cares about your success.
It’s a place where we encourage and prepare everyone—our students, faculty, staff and visitors—to quote our patron saint: “To be who you are and be that well.”
Values-Based
Rooted in the Salesian spiritual values of St. Francis de Sales, we welcome students of all faiths and foster a community of open intellectual inquiry. Everyone is treated with the dignity of the human person that they deserve.
As DeSales' new president, I am excited to lead a growing community where innovative teachers and curious learners ask important questions to construct new ideas.
