Collegiate Association for the Research of Principles
The Collegiate Association for the Research of Principles (CARP) is an
international student movement which believes Unificationism has the power
to guide humanity in the search for solutions to the world's problems.
Beginning in Korea in 1955, CARP expanded to Japan in 1964, to America in
1973 and now is established in more than 70 nations. CARP seeks to
generate a new spirit of compassion, involvement and determination in the
world's young people, by revitalizing their relationship with God. The
three major goals of CARP are: spiritual renewal, new moral commitment and
positive solutions to global injustice. Among CARP campus and community
activities are the World Student Service Corps, which annually brings
students to nations in need to work on a specific project for the benefit
of that nation and for the education of the young people. Each year CARP
sponsors the Mr. and Miss University Pageant an international pageant to
celebrate the beauty, moral character and artistic nature of students. For
the past four years CARP has sponsored The CARP Convention of World
Students, a convention for students from around the world to discuss
issues of world peace and to celebrate the unique aspects of each culture
through the arts, sports, music and dance.
