The mission of Clark Atlanta University is to provide the highest quality education and training for a student body which is predominently African American but which is becoming increasingly diversified by students from various racial, ethnic, cultural, and socioeconomic backgrounds. This mission commits the institution to the shaping of graduates who are productive, creative, socially and economically responsible citizens in a dynamic global society and who are themselves committed to the search for solutions to the problems of racism, sexism, age discrimination, economic deprivation, and other forms of oppression. The three functions of the University--teaching, research, and service--are focused strongly on the attainment of American, Third World, and global societies that are responsive to the human needs of all people. To achieve its mission, the University must attract and maintain a faculty dedicated to that mission and possessing the highest professional standard, significant scholarly achievements, and excellence, creativity and humaneness in teaching. The University must also provide an intellectual and educational environment in which students of high intellectual promise and attainment as well those who suffer educational and other deprivations may thrive, learn, and develop their highest potentialities for leadership and responsible citizenship. These requirements are supported by the University's emphasis on sound ethical and moral principals designed to enhance personal integrity and compassion for others. The University will maintain the ties to the United Methodist Church which have been a hallmark of Clark College since its inception. In summary, Clark Atlanta University's mission is to produce graduates who have met standards of excellence in contemporary higher education, who are educated to be creative and to have a perspective on the world and its peoples which commits them not only to excel in their professional careers and personal lives but also to seek for new knowledge and solutions to the pressing problems of mankind.
