The gems:
Under the mission section:
"The multiple challenges confronting the world today compel responsible institutions of higher learning in particular and peoples with diverse skills and experiences to use all the creative and analytical resources at their disposal to think beyond the regimented paradigms that underwrite habitual and predictable inquiries."
The last sentence:
"Even the remotest deserts can, with proper preparation and the right tools, be traversed at a distance even when they remain resolutely off-limits to all but the most intrepid travelers in three-dimensional space."
In the Middle:
"In the same way, the constituent disciplines and disciplinary constellations called upon in any one instance - their signature methodologies, knowledge-generating procedures and truth claims, their effects and affects - are likely to be modified as heterogeneous teams of artists, academics and non-academics interact together in the field and on the artistic stage."

Hahahahahhaha. I agree.
Also I can't take them seriously. I mean, maybe it's because I've had interaction with a current MFAer there who I feel writes worse than most undergrads, but I feel like I can't really trust a program where one of the professors describes it as "people who pay way too much to be pat on the back and be told 'good job.'"
