        <Explanation>Frederick Hart's Washington National Cathedral Collection is an impressive assemblage of sculptures that includes the bas-relief "Ex Nihilo" and the life-size castings of the biblical figures Adam, St. Peter and St. Paul. In addition to these sculptures from the National Cathedral in Washington, DC, the artist is best known for his bronze sculptures of three soldiers for the National Vietnam War Memorial. Benedictine College is the only college to have these first castings available for viewing on a daily basis. "Ex Nihilo" is on exhibit inside the Student Union and the statues of Adam, St. Peter and St. Paul are located in the heart of campus along the Raven Walk. The presence of these pieces exposes our students and our campus visitors to some truly magnificent artwork, and is another illustration of our commitment to a broad liberal arts education.</Explanation>

        <Explanation>BENEDICTINE COLLEGE IS A CATHOLIC, BENEDICTINE, LIBERAL ARTS, RESIDENTIAL COLLEGE WITH A MISSION TO EDUCATE MEN AND WOMEN WITHIN A COMMUNITY OF FAITH AND SCHOLARSHIP. WE HAVE A VISION TO BUILD ONE OF THE GREAT CATHOLIC COLLEGES IN AMERICA, AND ATTAINING THAT VISION REQUIRES A COMMUNITY-WIDE COMMITMENT TO EXCELLENCE. WE DEDICATE OURSELVES TO EDUCATING STUDENTS TO BECOME LEADERS IN THE BENEDICTINE TRADITION, WHO WILL TRANSFORM THE WORLD THROUGH THEIR COMMITMENT TO INTELLECTUAL, PERSONAL AND SPIRITUAL GREATNESS. BENEDICTINE COLLEGE IS LOCATED IN ATCHISON, KANSAS, ON A 120-ACRE CAMPUS OVERLOOKING THE MISSOURI RIVER, ABOUT 50 MILES NORTH OF KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI. THERE IS A GRADUATE PROGRAMS SATELLITE CAMPUS IN ROELAND PARK, KANSAS, AND A PARTNERSHIP WITH THE KANSAS CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT TO TEACH GRADUATE COURSES AT THE REGIONAL POLICE ACADEMY. THE COLLEGE ALSO HAS AN INTERNATIONAL CAMPUS IN FLORENCE, ITALY. FOR THE CURRENT ACADEMIC YEAR (2012-13), BENEDICTINE COLLEGE IS BLESSED TO HAVE THE LARGEST FULL-TIME UNDERGRADUATE STUDENT BODY IN ITS HISTORY, WITH MORE THAN 1,700 STUDENTS, NEARLY TRIPLING BENEDICTINE COLLEGE'S ENROLLMENT FROM 20 YEARS AGO. THE FRESHMAN CLASS ENTERING IN 2012 WAS NOT ONLY THE LARGEST IN SCHOOL HISTORY, BUT ALSO HAD THE HIGHEST AVERAGE ACT SCORE IN SCHOOL HISTORY AND THE HIGHEST AVERAGE GPA IN SCHOOL HISTORY. IT IS OBVIOUS THAT BENEDICTINE COLLEGE IS ATTRACTING BOTH MORE STUDENTS AS WELL AS THE BEST AND THE BRIGHTEST. NEARLY 80% OF UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS LIVE ON CAMPUS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE COLLEGE'S STRONG RESIDENTIAL TRADITION. TO KEEP UP WITH ITS GROWTH, BENEDICTINE COLLEGE HAS OPENED NINE NEW RESIDENCE HALLS SINCE THE YEAR 2000. THIS YEAR WAS NO DIFFERENT, AS THE COLLEGE OPENED ST. MICHAEL HALL AS A HOME TO 150 UNDERGRADUATE MEN. NATIONAL SURVEYS PLACE BENEDICTINE'S STUDENT LIFE PROGRAM HIGHEST IN OVERALL RESIDENT SATISFACTION AND BENEDICTINE COLLEGE'S RETENTION RATE IS CONSISTENTLY ABOVE 90%. IN MARCH OF 2012, THE COLLEGE OPENED THE NEW 57,000-SQUARE-FOOT FERRELL ACADEMIC CENTER. THIS LEED-CERTIFIED FACILITY PROVIDES SPACE FOR CLASSES, FACULTY AND PROGRAMS, ALLOWING BENEDICTINE TO CONTINUE GROWING. THE COLLEGE ALSO OPENED THE McCARTHY GALLERY OF ART IN HONOR OF LONG-TIME ART PROFESSOR, DENNIS McCARTHY. OUR ATHLETES HAVE EXCELLED ON THE FIELD AS WELL AS OFF, WITH SEVEN VARSITY SPORTS TEAMS RECEIVING NAIA SCHOLAR TEAM RECOGNITION AND BENEDICTINE COLLEGE BEING NAMED A "CHAMPIONS OF CHARACTER FIVE STAR INSTITUTION" BY THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS. MORE THAN A DOZEN ATHLETES WERE NAMED NAIA DAKTRONICS SCHOLAR ATHLETES AND TWO WERE NAMED TO THE ALL-AMERICA HONORABLE MENTION LIST. IN THE AREA OF ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE, BENEDICTINE IS NOW ONE OF THE FEW CATHOLIC COLLEGES IN THE NATION OFFERING ABET-ACCREDITED PROGRAMS IN CHEMICAL, CIVIL, ELECTRICAL, AND MECHANICAL ENGINEERING. ALSO, SEVERAL NEW MAJORS HAVE BEEN ADDED IN RECENT YEARS, INCLUDING ART, CRIMINOLOGY, ENGINEERING PHYSICS, FINANCE, INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS, INTERNATIONAL STUDIES, AND NURSING. THE FIRST CLASSES OF BENEDICTINE ENGINEERS AND NURSES GRADUATED IN SPRING 2012. ALL THE NURSES PASSED THEIR EXAMS AND HAVE JOBS IN THE MEDICAL FIELD. THIS YEAR, 25 OF OUR PROFESSORS WERE RANKED IN THE TOP 10% OF THE NATIONAL IDEA FACULTY EVALUATIONS. FOR THE SIXTH YEAR, BENEDICTINE COLLEGE WAS NAMED ONE OF AMERICA'S BEST COLLEGES BY "U.S. NEWS &amp; WORLD REPORT," APPEARING AS A TOP-TIER SCHOOL IN THE MIDWEST - MASTERS CATEGORY. IN ADDITION, THE CARDINAL NEWMAN SOCIETY NAMED BENEDICTINE COLLEGE ONE OF THE TOP CATHOLIC COLLEGES IN THE UNITED STATES IN ITS PUBLICATION, "THE NEWMAN GUIDE TO CHOOSING A CATHOLIC COLLEGE." AFTER AN EXTENSIVE NATIONAL STUDY, "FIRST THINGS" MAGAZINE ALSO NAMED BENEDICTINE COLLEGE TO ITS TOP 20. THE SCHOOL IS RANKED NUMBER 18 IN THE NATION BY THEIR RESEARCH, WHICH INCLUDED MORE THAN 2,000 COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES, FROM AMERICAN UNIVERSITY TO YALE. THE STUDY ALSO RANKED BENEDICTINE COLLEGE AMONG THE TOP 5 CATHOLIC COLLEGES IN THE COUNTRY. THE COLLEGE ALSO LAUNCHED AN HONORS PROGRAM, A GREGORIAN FELLOWS PROGRAM, AND THE GREGORIAN SPEECH DIGEST. LAST YEAR, A NEW INSTITUTE FOR MISSIONARY ACTIVITY WAS DEVELOPED. THE MINISTRY PROGRAM IS NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED, THE STUDENT LIFE PROGRAM HAS BECOME A MODEL FOR OTHER COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES, AND ATHLETIC PROGRAMS, INCLUDING THE ADDITION OF A NEW WRESTLING PROGRAM, ARE HIGH ACHIEVING IN EVERY ASPECT. BENEDICTINE COLLEGE IS CONSISTENTLY GAINING IN IMAGE AND AWARENESS. IT HAS AVERAGED 6% GROWTH IN ENROLLMENT EACH YEAR FOR THE PAST 13 YEARS. THE CAMPUS HAS BEEN TRANSFORMED, WITH NEW RESIDENCE FACILITIES AND NOW A FABULOUS NEW SIGNATURE ACADEMIC BUILDING. IN ADDITION, A SPECIALLY-COMMISSIONED STATUE OF ST. BENEDICT NOW WELCOMES VISITORS TO CAMPUS OUTSIDE THE HAVERTY CENTER. THE BENEDICTINE MONKS AND SISTERS WHO BRAVED THE AMERICAN FRONTIER OF THE MIDDLE 1800s WOULD BE PROUD TO SEE THE INSTITUTION THAT STILL REPRESENTS THEIR VISION OF COMMUNITY, FAITH AND SCHOLARSHIP IN SUCH AN OUSTANDING WAY.</Explanation>
