A teaching order, the Basilian Fathers promote education with the values of goodness, discipline, and knowledge. They care about the whole person, the soul, and the intellect. These are the hallmarks of a Basilian Catholic education.
    GovernanceUST has a 40-member Board of Directors that meets four times a year. According to the bylaws, one-third of the Board must be either Basilian Fathers or Basilian appointees. The remaining board members are a representation of Houston's business, medical, philanthropic, and cultural interests.
