We ask students not to separate but to bring together what they learn in different fields, and to connect them rationally with each other, with the life of the human spirit and with God as ultimate reality. A recent survey shows close to half of entering college freshmen have as principal objectives to develop a meaningful philosophy of life, and also to integrate spirituality into their personal lives. Nearly half of today s first year students, in other words, truly want to use their studies to understand the meaning of human existence. At Bryn Athyn College, these goals are our primary objectives, sparked by the rational spiritual concepts opened up in the Writings of Emanuel Swedenborg. This is not a college for someone who wishes to get lost in a highly specialized or distant corner, or to be anonymous in a crowd of other students.
Higher education can be truly human.
