Returning Students: Remember to celebrate your return and reflect on the dedication and hard work it has taken to get to this point. As Dean of Students, I am, ultimately, your advocate and your biggest supporter as a student during your time at Rosemont. I am committed to working with the Student Affairs staff to assist in this important mission. For wellness needs and emotional support, do not hesitate to reach out to our great staff in the Counseling Center and in the Wellness Center.

These changes have also helped to leverage the operation of a seasonal farmers’ market, located at the train station parking lot off of Easton Road. The 400+ shoppers that show up on Saturdays help support this corridor, and the recently formed Downtown Glenside Community Partnership has been organizing special weekend events to draw these shoppers into the heart of downtown Glenside.
