“Whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is gracious, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think on these things” (St. Paul to the Philippians 4:8).
The St. Anselm Institute for Catholic Thought is a voluntary organization of Catholic faculty and others dedicated to promoting the vast, life-affirming riches of the Catholic intellectual tradition at the University of Virginia and beyond. Founded in 2000, the Institute supports several activities, including a public lecture series, various reading and discussion groups including a Doctors of the Church lunch seminar series, Catholic arts programs, faculty-student dinners and local field trips, Lenten retreats, and our annual appeal to support Catholic education in Saltadère, Haiti.

UVA graduate/professional school students, postdocs and researchers are invited to attend a fellowship group designed especially for them. The group name ("Whatever is True") reflects the goal of reinvigorating the interdisciplinary meaning of Catholic to embrace every Truth within every academic discipline in the Light of Christ the LogosOur format is simple, friendly and informal, we'll gather for a meal and shared discussion about ourselves and our studies. Our Spring 2023 meetings will meet 6:30-8:00pm at St. Thomas Aquinas University Parish. To receive group emails, email one of the facilitators Dr. Jocelyn Moore (Classics, This email address is being protected from spambots.
