WINTER 2009

              

Down to the Core »
"It is critical that the core curriculum design reflect the values of the Catholic liberal arts tradition as taught in a Marianist university while being innovative and responsive to the educational needs of today's students and society."

Futures Bright for Two Fulbrights »
Two of St.Mary’s own have earned the nickname of "Fulbrighters" – a lighthearted nickname for a prestigious achievement. The competitive Fulbright Scholarship is the flagship international educational exchange program sponsored by the U.S. government. This year, a professor and a student travel to opposite ends of the earth in search of mutual understanding between cultures.

Legally Bound »
St.Mary’s University holds a special place in the heart of two former Rattler athletes and current law students. Not only did they find their academic home here, but their life partners and the pathway to their futures.

Summer Vocation »
A handful of St.Mary's professors and students spent the summer months on the coast, in the mountains, and in the idyllic countryside. Their excursions took them to Central America and New England in the name of artistic expression, social justice, and the Marianist charism.

Cultural Identity »
“St. Mary’s University will elevate and reinforce its Catholic and Marianist identity, celebrating within the University community and beyond the mission and core values that have successfully guided us in the past and that provide direction and a framework for planning and progress today and in the future.”

Founders Hall »
Founders Hall, St. Mary’s newest residential facility – and one that is designated specifically for first year freshmen – supports the University’s strategic goals while fulfilling an important component of our Facilities Master Plan.

The Gold & Blue magazine is produced for alumni and friends three times per year by the University Communications staff. The magazine showcases the academic excellence of St. Mary's through articles and special profiles that focus on the significant achievements of our alumni.

The magazine serves as a link to the University, highlighting campus activities and the accomplishments of our alumni, students, athletes and faculty and staff members.

Each issue also features a Class Notes section that provides updates on career changes, marriages, births and more (which is removed from the Web version for privacy issues).
