The mission of the ACU Compass Initiative is to empower students to discover, capture, and further engage with university experiences that ready them for Christian service and leadership throughout the world.\u00a0This mission is accomplished through two main avenues:<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. The Compass Roadmaps<\/strong> which highlight a menu of opportunities for holistic engagement, often with a curricular focus curated by faculty and staff from that discipline.<\/p>\n

2. The Compass app (powered by Suitable)<\/strong> which provides an interactive space for students to discover, reflect on, and articulate their unique story as ACU Wildcats.<\/p>\n
