This year, we celebrate our 175th anniversary by reviewing and sharing the stories of all the people who have helped make Saint Mary’s College what it is today. These portraits share bits of information about our founders, leaders, faculty and staff who have all made an impact on this educational institution. But they also share how our alumnae personify our mission through their work and their lives by supporting our core values of learning, community, faith/spirituality, and justice. We encourage you to take a moment to read a bit about these incredible people and consider nominating others to be included at saintmarys.edu/Portraits.
