Saint Mary’s first Cardinal women’s hockey tea

Saint Mary’s first Cardinal women’s hockey team in 1998-99 wasn’t exactly composed of first-string recruits. “We were a mishmash of girls — ranging from a few who had played hockey their entire lives to girls like myself who had been around hockey all my life and knew how to skate, but hadn’t played,” said Carey (Stover) Benson ’99.

About the only thing they shared? The desire to play hockey.

Benson said more than 20 years later she still has a sense of pride in being on that team. “Being on that team gave me a connection to Saint Mary’s that otherwise I wouldn’t have had,” she said.

Working in genetic research at Mayo Clinic, Beth (Schubert) Pitel ’06 solves complex puzzles, which could ultimately improve patient care or even save lives.

Pitel became part of a research team using genetic testing to understand why young children were suddenly dying about 15 years ago in an Amish community. The deaths had baffled medical examiners and brought heartbreak to the Amish community. Some of her most recent research was covered by CNN.

Because our students' safety is our top priority, Saint Mary’s University has invested in groundbreaking purification systems on its Winona and Twin Cities campuses. These systems will purify the air and surfaces of harmful materials, including viruses: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRMr5BJhVbs

In response to students' great suggestions, the Market is being constructed inside the Cardinal Club. Here, students will be able to purchase snacks or other basic necessities instead of needing to leave campus. The bookstore will continue providing school-related items like pens and notebooks. We'll share more photos of the progress!

The Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Council ann

The Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Council announced its decision today, Tuesday, July 28, to postpone most fall intercollegiate competition. According to the MIAC, “The conference is working to develop spring schedules for those sports, which have been deemed at medium- or high-risk for coronavirus transmission by the NCAA.” The postponement relates to health and safety concerns related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The MIAC is permitting golf and tennis to compete this fall in accordance with campus, state, and NCAA health directives. Saint Mary’s does not have a golf team, and although Cardinal tennis teams will practice in fall, no conference games are scheduled until spring.

“We know this wasn’t an easy decision for the MIAC to make, but we understand this outcome because our No. 1 priority has always been our students’ safety as well,” said Dr. Tim Gossen, vice president for Student Affairs.

Winona Campus students at Saint Mary’s Universit

Winona Campus students at Saint Mary’s University will be welcomed back to numerous changes, upgrades, and continued renovations — all of which are being made possible solely through philanthropic support.

One of the largest construction projects underway is the renovation of the Adducci Science Center’s Brother Charles and Hoffman halls, which are being transformed into a state-of-the-art space for innovation and collaboration.

Through a $17 million initiative, Saint Mary’s is creating a space for state-of-the-art classrooms, learning spaces, and labs for business and the sciences (including math, psychology, nursing, and computer science.) Saint Mary’s knows that interdisciplinary efforts are critical now more than ever. In fields ranging from business to healthcare, it takes a team of experts to examine issues, challenges, and opportunity from a variety of perspectives.

Highlights of the new facility, expected to be completed by fall 2021, will include a nursing suite, simulation and control rooms, a debrief room, makerspace, trading lab, data analytics lab, computational lab, environmental biology lab, human behavioral lab, sales training suite, teaching and research greenhouse, and covered outdoor classroom extension.

As a direct response to market research and an identified need in the workforce, Saint Mary’s University has announced its plan to establish a B.S. in Nursing program in fall 2021 at its Winona Campus.

The university is currently renovating its Adducci Science Center’s Hoffman and Brother Charles halls to house the dedicated nursing suite, which will include a large clinical skills lab, a high fidelity nursing simulation center, faculty offices, and learning hubs (among other collaborative disciplines like business and the sciences — including math, psychology, and computer science).

Seven clinical agency partners from southern Minnesota and the metro area have agreed to partner with Saint Mary’s on student clinical education, and more relationships are forthcoming.

“We have clinical placements in rural areas to help with relationship building and the job placement, and our graduates are sought after,” Todd Reinhart, Sc.D., dean of Sciences and Health Professions, said. “It’s ultimately about helping today’s healthcare system provide affordable quality care. Saint Mary’s is working to help strengthen the workforce and address the economic challenges within that workforce.”
