Notice Regarding Opening Mass and Class Operations for the 2026-2 Semester

The Opening Mass is a unique tradition that has continued since our university launched as a comprehensive university in 1995.

As this Mass, offered at the beginning of every semester, is the only liturgy and event on campus where all members of our university community participate together,

we ask for the active participation of all students, faculty, and staff.

• - Date & Venue: September 9, 2026 (Wed) 10:00 /Concert Hall (Grand Auditorium)(CH)
