TCU’s mission is to educate individuals to think and act as ethical leaders and responsible citizens in the global community. This ideal is the continuation of a quest that began in 1869, when brothers Addison and Randolph Clark dreamed of creating a college where men and women could acquire a classical education and develop character.
