Aquinas College, a small Catholic institution located on a beautiful 92-acre campus in west Nashville, was founded in 1961 by the Dominican Sisters of St. Cecilia ("Nashville Dominicans"). The Dominican Sisters have more than 140 years of experience providing education in a value-centered, Christian learning environment permeated with faith.
At Aquinas College, liberal arts are at the heart of all of our programs of study. In addition to studies in Liberal Arts, we have concentrated our professional degree programs on three areas in which we believe our students can make a tremendous impact on today's culture: business, education, and nursing. Encouraged by the Church's message to colleges and universities, Ex Corde Ecclesiae, Aquinas desires "to determine the relative place and meaning of each of the various disciplines within the context of a vision of the human person and the world that is enlightened by the Gospel, and therefore by a faith in Christ, the Logos, as the centre of creation and human history" (#16). The Nursing Program is celebrating its Twentieth Graduating Class in 2005, having contributed over 800 nurses to the healthcare community.
