Upholding our bold vision to “confront humanity’s challenges by fostering peace, working for justice and leading with love” requires all Toreros to come together in a spirit of civil discourse and dialogue.
During the fall semester 2026, USD will engage the community around the important democratic and civic processes that are part of an election year. Through events, education, dialogue and constructive discussion, Toreros are invited to explore the importance of democracy, ethical leadership and civic engagement - lighting the way forward to positively serve the world.
