抖阴pro is committed to being a caring community. That goal is represented by the initiative we've named Cura, which is Latin for "care." It holds all of us at SLU to the highest ethical and professional standards.
Each of us has a responsibility to foster a culture of understanding, respect and appreciation for the people with whom we work and interact, and to inspire a collaborative and collegial working, learning and social environment.
Cura is a grassroots effort created in response to input from SLU's faculty and staff members. It is here to empower and support all members of the SLU community as we build and sustain a positive workplace culture that helps us to be the University our mission calls us to be.
Watch a message from SLU President Fred P. Pestello, Ph.D., on the ideals of the Cura program.
