Education
"Without drawing up guidelines for education under monastic auspices, Benedict had provided for a style of religious life that lent itself to teaching children by drawing on the monks' own foundation in the liberal arts, forming them morally and religiously at the same time, and fostering the literary and theological interests of individual monks"
— Hilary Thimmesh OSB
"Benedictines and Higher Education: American Style."
Since 1857, the Benedictine monks of Saint John's have welcomed students to the Collegeville campus. Saint John's Preparatory School and Saint John's University trace their roots to those earliest classes. Monks are engaged in our educational apostolates as board members, teachers, administrators, chaplains, counselors, faculty residents, librarians, etc.
