The University of San Diego and the Franciscan School of Theology jointly announced the broad outlines of a plan to affiliate with each other for the mutual benefit of both institutions in serving the needs of their students, society and the universal church. The plan calls for FST to relocate from its present location in Berkeley to the grounds of Old Mission San Luis Rey in Oceanside, about 35 miles north of the USD campus. The move will affect entering students at FST beginning in September 2013, the Sept. 27 announcement said. FST students will have access to a broad range of graduate courses at USD, including courses offered in the School of Leadership and Education Sciences and in the Joan B.

respective faculties and students to collaborate with one another in service, research and other scholarly activities. “The relocation of the Franciscan School of Theology to Old Mission San Luis Rey is a great blessing for the Diocese of San Diego,” said San Diego Bishop Robert H. Brom. “We welcome the Franciscans with open arms. Their spiritual and theological tradition and outreach to the poor will build upon and expand the vibrant faith-life of this local Church and positively contribute to the mission of the University of San Diego.” Father John Hardin, OFM, leader of the Franciscan friars in the western U.S. and chair of the Board of Trustees at the Franciscan School of Theology, said, “Forging a relationship with USD gives FST an opportunity to explore new ways of expressing our faith for the 21st century. We are excited about bringing together the spiritual, theological and social riches of the Franciscan tradition and USD’s excellence in contemporary sciences, non-profit management, public service, peace work and more.”
