Catholic Ethos
The University ensures that it maintains its Catholic ethos by providing students and staff with various facilities. One of the most prominent expressions of this ethos is the daily Mass at the university chapels; 12:30 in Fremantle and 12:35 in Sydney. Each School takes turns to facilitate Mass on Wednesdays (such as providing lectors for the readings), and a schola cantorum compused of students, staff and faculty sing Masses on both campuses.

“Take the serious side of Disney, the Confucian side of Disney. It’s in having taken an ethos ... where you have the values of courage and tenderness asserted in a way that everybody can understand. You have got an absolute genius there. You have got a greater correlation of nature than you have had since the time of Alexander the Great.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
