Well, its a Jesuit university. Jesuits are commonly thought to be liberal, controversial and fairly accommodating of other religious doctrine.
I like this joke and think it exemplifies this a lot. A Franciscan, a Dominican, and a Jesuit are doing archaeological research in the Holy Land and discover an unopened tomb from the early first century. After excavating it, they go inside and find a cross with a skeleton nailed to it and a sign above that reads "Jesus of Nazareth King of the Jews".
Immediately the Franciscan says, "The Resurrection never happened! My whole life has been for nothing!" and runs out distraught. The Dominican says, "The Gospels are full of lies! My whole life has been for nothing!" and runs out distraught. The Jesuit looks at the skeleton and says, "Well what do you know, I guess He really did exist!"
