General Info

The Catholic Campus Ministry of WCSU, The Newman Center, is supported through the generous care of the Diocese of Bridgeport. Rooted in Gospel values, the Newman community seeks to help recognize, develop and cultivate the gifts of all God's people at WestConn. We live this mission through varied opportunities of prayer, study, socialization, and outreach to the poor. In the spirit of our patron, John Cardinal Newman, we understand the important role of the university in helping students to speak to the many possibilities of life, especially the "How" questions we encounter. The role of the Newman Center is to create a place where the "Why" questions of life can be explored and answered more fully. The Newman Center, located just across the street from Newbury Hall on the mid-town campus, offers a Christ-like hospitality to all members of the WestConn community.
