Campion College President: “At the Center of This College Is Jesus Christ.”

January 15, 2013, at 5:21 PM | |

“At the center of this college is Jesus Christ. I take that very seriously,” Campion College Australia president Dr. Ryan Messmore said at his inaugural speech last month. “Rather than a mere pious label or a decorative gloss, the Christian faith informs the very content and character of a Campion education.”

Dr. Messmore, an American and a Catholic convert, is making a strong push to make Campion College Australia better known. And he is asking Catholics to not only watch the video below of his comments but also to send them to students and families of students who right now are considering colleges. Campion College Australia will be accepting applications over the next six weeks.

You can watch his inaugural address below:

Campion College Australia opened its doors in 2006. It’s an independent institution named for Saint Edmund Campion and is recommended in The Newman Guide. You can visit its website here.
