Cur Non
Cur Non, the motto of our namesake, the Marquis de Lafayette, is our rally cry. Cur Non means why not? Why not have the courage to live boldly? Why not engage in every aspect of learning? Why not use your intellect, energy, and talent to build the kind of world you believe in? As you will find at Lafayette, cur non means that for our students anything is possible.
