This book addresses the contemporary challenges and aspirations of Catholic universities--inspired by the original idea of a university -- through a rich historical, philosophical, and practical lens. It begins with an exploration of the history of secular and Catholic universities, laying a foundation for understanding their evolving roles and identities.At its core, the book explores the purpose of a university as an active guiding principle of governance, organizational culture, and community. It examines how identity and purpose must permeate all the spheres and goals: research, teaching, governance, communications, and the 'Third Mission'--the university's societal role. A substantial focus is placed on the concept of a 'community of knowledge.' This encompasses the implementation of a core curriculum, fostering student character and virtue, the role of theology in education, and the infusion of Christian inspiration across all courses. The book also confronts the challenges of communication and impact within a secular context. It discusses strategies for communicating purpose, managing controversy, and highlights the significance of relevance, networking, and dialogue in education and society.Concluding with a reflection on the vocation to service, the book underscores the unique role of universities in shaping future generations. It was originally published as a special issue of Church, Communication and Culture.
