In 1957, the Missionary Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Jesus (MSC), the religious order founded by Saint Frances Xavier Cabrini, secures the charter for Cabrini College. Led by the College’s first president, Sister Ursula Infante, MSC, Cabrini is the first and only institution of higher learning founded by the order. The College adopts Saint Frances Cabrini’s philosophy of providing students with an Education of the Heart, integrating intellectual competence with moral and social responsibility. Cabrini College is a Catholic, liberal-arts college dedicated to academic excellence, leadership development, and a commitment to social justice.
