The Center for Equal Access exists to foster an inclusive community for all students, with a focus on furthering the education, understanding and promotion of students with disabilities.

We support the Social Model of Disability in our mission to celebrate the diversity of learners and embrace all abilities. We help students navigate through college with a disability or medical condition, assisting them to address challenges and find resources to aid them on their journey. We advocate on behalf of students and teach them the skills to advocate for themselves. We empower students to recognize that a disability is a difference, not a deficiency or limitation.

****Any student who needs assistance in gaining equal access to classes or College resources due to physical, psychological, or learning disability, as well as attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder, a visual or hearing impairment and/or chronic medical condition should request assistance through this office. Contact us at access@css.edu to set up an appointment or for more information. Students registered with The Center should check out My.CSS and Accommodate for more information

Dignitas provides the foundation for our students' entire college experience by introducing them to the key elements unique to a St. Scholastica education. Dignitas, the Latin word for dignity, is the program's signature element focusing on the intrinsic, absolute value of being a person.

In Dignitas, we are guided by important questions that shape our learning, our actions, and our purpose as members of the CSS community. These questions support the Dignitas learning outcomes, providing structure and coherence to each course. In Dignitas, we ask questions and seek answers in preparation for "responsible living and meaningful work."

Key elements of the CSS Mission and Values are integrated directly into the Dignitas curriculum:
-Dignity
-Diversity
-Benedictine Tradition and Values
-Catholic Social Teaching
-Catholic Intellectual Tradition
