Newman Catholic Campus Ministry, the Church's ministry to higher education on secular and private non-Catholic campuses, traces its mission to the vision of John Henry Cardinal Newman, himself a pastor and scholar. The mission of Newman Catholic Campus Ministry is to gather Catholic students attending non-Catholic colleges and universities in the Diocese of Cleveland in order to strengthen their faith and Catholic identity through:

• Participation in a worshipping community of faith
• Increased understanding of Catholic teaching and tradition
• Education, action, and reflection on peace and justice issues
• Leadership development
• Opportunities for personal development and conscience formation
• Making connections between faith and life

The Newman Catholic Student Association is the undergraduate student group within Newman Catholic Campus Ministry of the Diocese of Cleveland. NCSA collaborates with the campus minister to provide opportunities for spiritual growth through the development of a supportive faith community that offers educational, service, and social programming.
