The five will be recognized virtually at 7 p.m. on Saturday, April 24.

From early in her successful career, Angela (Scull

From early in her successful career, Angela (Scully) Steger '76 has carved a path for women in business. She went from being a stock broker in Chicago into the pit — serving as one of very few women traders in the '70s. She continued in the financial industry, expanding into sales and marketing on a global scale, and then into financial planning.

Steger is supporting Saint Mary's business initiative and the renovation of the Adducci Science Center's Hoffman and Brother Charles halls, where business and the sciences will collaborate and innovate.

"With our new strategic plan, Saint Mary's is thinking outside of the box and being more forward thinking about what student needs will be in the future and what industry and societal needs will be. It's about positioning students with the tools the need for the next century," she said.

Through an anonymous COVID-19 feedback submission,

Through an anonymous COVID-19 feedback submission, we were generously reminded us to thank the janitorial staff and others who are on campus every day helping to serve the students and keep them safe.

“We should appreciate their help in this pandemic, just as much as the students, because without them, we would not have a clean and healthy campus!” said the anonymous submitter.

We could not agree more. We thank those dedicated Saint Mary’s staff and contracted partners who are on campus every day doing what they can to keep our environment clean and healthy. Thank you for thinking of these very important individuals. We encourage you to also thank them when you see them.

Last night our Cardinal men's team reacted to the news of the generous anonymous gift in traditional hockey tradition, with some stick banging and raising. We are incredibly grateful for this gift of $250,000 (and commitment of $750,000) and all that it will do for our deserving athletes and our program!

Thanks to the generosity of a family that wishes to be anonymous, Saint Mary’s University Cardinal hockey programs will receive some major upgrades next season — including rink improvements and new men’s apparel and equipment.

With an outright gift of $250,000 and a commitment of $750,000 for future needs, these philanthropic Cardinal hockey fans are giving back to a sport that has brought their family so much joy — and so many meaningful connections — through the years.

We are so proud of how our whole community has creatively found ways to stay positive and stay connected during this pandemic (like our masked and socially distanced concert band members who are keeping the music flowing). The Winona Post shared an update on how SMU and WSU college students are embracing the spring semester. http://ow.ly/bLk550DxUjw

Saint Mary’s University of Minnesota and Viterbo

Saint Mary’s University of Minnesota and Viterbo University are pleased to announce a new partnership that provides flexibility and increased academic offerings for students at both schools.

University presidents Father James P. Burns, IVD, Ph.D., of Saint Mary’s and Glena Temple, Ph.D., of Viterbo will sign a partnership agreement Tuesday, Feb. 23.

Both universities are founded in Catholic values and have a shared mission of transformative education. “Partnering with Viterbo is a natural extension for Saint Mary’s as we look to serve students who seek an excellent education rooted in leadership and service to others,” said Father Burns. “In these increasingly challenging times, we are called to be especially innovative and creative in serving students and meeting employer and societal needs going forward. Strong partnerships create opportunity, and we are pleased to be working closely with Viterbo.”

Juniors Grace Gilles and Peyton Grant were feature

Juniors Grace Gilles and Peyton Grant were featured in an interview with WXOW TV about returning to Saint Mary's safely in a pandemic. They plan to hang out in pods or consistent groups of 10 or fewer people, and said they are confident in Saint Mary's COVID-19 spread prevention plan.

"The school has helped us prepare for that by requiring masks everywhere," Grant said. "So I think just trying to spend more time together in our room will help us personally but walking together to our class with our masks allows us to see our classmates while being safe."
