Associate Dean for Hispanic Engagement

Faculty

The Oblates of Mary Immaculate have been engaged in serving the Hispanic/Latine community in the United States since 1849. This follows the Oblate charism and the mission of its school since its founding in 1903: to prepare students for ministry in the Southwest and Mexico. That mission has expanded over the decades to “the multicultural, global reality of church and society, with particular attention to the diverse and rich Hispanic reality of the Americas." The purpose of the Associate Dean of Hispanic Engagement is to enhance this commitment by establishing a full-time position, with faculty status, to increase “cultural responsiveness, access to theological education, affordability, and student success.” The purpose of the Associate Dean is twofold: to foster research and teaching in Hispanic theology and ministry, and to coordinate the school’s accompaniment and collaboration with Hispanic communities. The Associate Dean will also be the holder of the Victory Noll Sisters Chair of Hispanic Engagement.
