Educational Leadership Catholic Mission Culture This study was done at a small Catholic college in the Midwest that has had great change over the past 15 years. The senior leader, staff and faculty Catholic identity and mission was explored by investigating the culture at the institution. The investigation was done using qualitative methods. Interviews from senior leaders, staff and faculty were done along with personal observations and document reviews in order to better understand the Catholic identity and mission of the institution. This study found that the Catholic mission and identity is communicated by story telling from person to person about the founding Catholic order. This study also found that senior leaders, staff and faculty viewed the Catholic mission and identity as serving the underserved. Furthermore, serving the underserved was how the senior leaders, faculty and staff viewed social justice. This study provides the framework to create a survey that could be done at multiple institutions to investigate the manifestation of the Catholic mission, faculty and staff compromise, and the understanding of social justice. Finally, this study found that the traditions and history of the founding Catholic order continues to have influence over the culture of how the faculty and staff manage discriminatory stimuli at the work place. 2015 English text University of Akron / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=akron1447688091 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=akron1447688091 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
