Ever Ancient, Ever New: Refounding Assumption
Since its founding, Assumption has evolved to meet the changing needs of students and the world beyond its campus. A bold new and innovative strategic plan will guide the University into the future.
Since its founding, Assumption has evolved to meet the changing needs of students and the world beyond its campus. A bold new and innovative strategic plan will guide the University into the future.
In November 2020, Assumption completed construction of the 41,000-square-foot Health Sciences Building, a three-story building with a number of state-of-the-art teaching facilities equipped with the latest training tools to benefit those in the Froelich School of Nursing, School of Health Professions, and a number of other departments and majors.
The ingenuity of Assumption’s faculty in the Department of Art & Music ensured that students’ artwork would be exhibited despite the limitations of the pandemic. In place of the annual fall Student Art & Design Show on campus, a website was created to share the creativity of students.
When Assumption welcomed students back to campus last fall for in-person learning and a residential experience, a comprehensive safety protocol and the new AU Mobile App made it possible. The app has been extensively developed to serve a broader purpose: a centralized location for students, faculty, staff, parents, families, and alumni to obtain vital information.
