"We can't talk about academic excellence without addressing our Catholic and Jesuit-Marymount identity and mission, because our mission and identity should not be viewed as seperate and apart from our drive toward academic excellence. Indeed, excellence is and has been a central feature in our Ignatian heritage." —David W. Burcham, President of Loyola Marymount University
