A Fresh Perspective… St. Mary’s connection to you!

This is the first of four online newsletters for parents of first-time freshmen. During New Student Orientation, you had the opportunity to meet many members of the St. Mary's community and learn about the many opportunities your son or daughter has as he or she strives for academic success. In Fresh Perspective, the University will continue to build your knowledge regarding college life at St. Mary's.

Through this newsletter, you will learn about important academic policies and procedures, dates for your son or daughter to keep in mind, and information on special events that occur at St. Mary’s. We also will share interesting facts and history about St. Mary’s, highlight campus resources, introduce you to faculty and the freshman class, and let you know about the latest exciting developments that will enrich your son's or daughter’s educational experience. 

We hope that you enjoy reading the first issue of Fresh Perspective. We know that it is important for you to remain informed as your son or daughter attends his or her first semester of college. Look for the next issue of Fresh Perspective in December. It is our way to stay connected with you!
