Our motto: Non scholae sed vitae
Translated from the Latin: “Not for school, but for life.”
More than a slogan, these are words we live by. They inform how we learn, teach, and live. Here’s how they will be part of your Carroll experience:
- Not for school. You’ll understand that real worth isn’t measured by a grade, an award, or a degree. What matters is the truth you pursue, the virtue you exhibit, and the difference you make.
- For life. Just as your education didn’t begin at Carroll, neither will it end here. Our faculty will challenge you to learn more than facts and figures, skills and information. You’ll learn to ask questions—important, meaningful life questions—of yourself and others. You’ll experience the thrill of discovering new knowledge and the humility of knowing there will always be more to learn.
Yes, we will celebrate your academic achievements. We will take pride in your successes after Carroll. Because we’ll know that you will never stop questioning, striving, growing. That your Carroll adventure is not for school, but for life.
Non scholae sed vitae.
