To close this gap, Xavier University is committed to training more minority students to teach children of all cultural backgrounds. As a unit of a historically Black university with a unique Catholic character, the Division of Education combines professional abilities with a liberal arts education to prepare its graduates for a rewarding and challenging career as educators. Xavier's historical foundation is grounded in its mission to prepare well-qualified teachers for careers in public and private schools. With the national agenda now focused on education, Xavier has reaffirmed its committment to producing certified teachers who are heavily recruited by school districts and graduate schools across the nation. In a pluralistic learning environment, the Division of Education fosters its faculty's teaching, scholarship, and community service as a means of developing the values, spirituality, culture, knowledge, and skills of its students.
