Power of Us
Explore the Philosophy Driving Our Work.
Inspired by the teachings of Howard Thurman, a philosopher and educator, we embrace his philosophy of the Search for Common Ground. Through self-exploration and shared experiences, we believe that we can find common ground, transcend barriers, and inspire positive change in our community and beyond.

“As we navigate a world where division often overshadows unity, we also recognize the incredible opportunity we have to bring people together. This is the essence of the Power of Us initiative. It’s our commitment to embedding our values into every facet of our organization. It’s our way of celebrating our student-athletes, coaches, staff, campus, and community while amplifying the voices and experiences of every individual within it.”

“Don't ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive and go do it, because what the world needs is people who have come alive.”
