Guiding Principles
We are guided by shared values rooted in the Seven Grandfather Teachings. Acknowledging the origins of these teachings in an indigenous worldview, their universality provides a foundation for Creighton’s values
Our Values
Love: to promote kinship and self-worth through devotion, admiration, and kindness
Respect: to show regard for all people and things through courteous consideration and appreciation
Bravery: to face challenges, difficulties, and obstacles with courage and integrity
Honesty: to be trustworthy, truthful and straightforward
Humility: to use a balance of equality with others and to accept oneself as a part of creation
Wisdom: to cherish knowledge and to use good sense and use wisdom of elders
Truth: to faithfully apply these teachings through sincerity of actions and words
Integrated throughout the teachings are three other values that guide decisions and action at Creighton…
Accountability: to be willing to accept ownership for one’s deeds and words
Responsibility: to act dutifully and reliably
Empowerment: to recognize and support strength and ability in others
