Notre Dame and Saint Mary's have been inextricably linked since Holy Cross missionaries founded the schools in the 1840s. Today, many at Saint Mary's value their institution's independence from Notre Dame and encourage students to take pride in their College. Saint Mary's leaders balance independence, tradition
