Our values

When Norbert of Xanten founded the Norbertine order in the 12th century, he began a legacy of faith, service and community that continues to thrive over 900 years later. Today, St. Norbert College, the only Norbertine institution of higher education in the world carries forward his mission through a vibrant Catholic, liberal arts experience rooted in the Norbertine values.
