WHAT'S CIVITAE?

It's the challenge of thinking critically.
It's the challenge of being an engaged citizen.
It's the challenge of valuing different perspectives.

Only at Longwood University do students experience the power of Civitae, the philosophy that guides our teaching and community. It’s a philosophy of forging meaningful relationships by interacting with the world around us, valuing and considering different opinions, and taking the reins of your life and career.
