TRUTHIt includes Christian truth as well as general truth.
Christian truth broadly refers to the “Reason of True Life” which includes the concept of “Freedom and Justice”. -
SERVICEGiving back to society what has been studied and learned at university, it includes the meaning of volunteering which is highly demanded from the society today. It means our university philosophy is a harmonious human development having a warm heart to love and help others, not means the humans who are only intellectually developed by emphasizing only the education and research which are the main function of the university.
