The Benedictine Leadership Institute for Students
The Benedictine Leadership Institute, an institute for disseminating Benedictine ideas, is an opportunity to infuse the Benedictine way of life, its principles and values into the lives of our students to help them live a life filled with meaning and purpose.
Principles, Virtues, and Core Values
It is our vision to transform society through Benedictine thought and action and our mission to form principled and virtuous leaders according to the Benedictine way of life through our values: awareness of God, community, hospitality, and lifelong learning.
Curriculum & Experiential Learning
Each year, the BLI takes our freshman and sophomore students on a transformative experience, either to the Black Hills, the Grand Canyon, or the Rocky Mountains, where they get an opportunity to examine who they are and how it is that they want to impact the world.
At no additional cost above tuition, each trip is part of Mount Marty's education curriculum through the Benedictine Leadership 101 and 201 courses.
For more information, contact BLI Director, Joe Rutten or schedule a visit with Admission.
