Founded by the Sisters of the Holy Cross in 1844, Saint Mary’s promotes a life of intellectual vigor, aesthetic appreciation, religious sensibility, and social responsibility. All members of the College remain faithful to this mission and continually assess their response to the complex needs and challenges of the contemporary world. insidesaint mary’s Milestones “Life is a journey, not a destination,” Ralph Waldo Emerson told us. It is a metaphor that resonates at Saint Mary’s, where the Avenue marks a milestone in an alumna’s journey. The life of a college is also marked by its own turning points and watersheds. This year, in particular, has been a year of milestone events and accomplishments at Saint Mary’s. This fall we celebrated the beatifi cation of Blessed Basil Anthony Moreau, the founder of the Congregations of Holy Cross. We also approved a new strategic plan, launched a new marketing campaign, and achieved a new national ranking. This Special Report is dedicated to informing alumnae about these landmark achievements. Much of what we are reporting in this Special Report of Courier is possible because of our alumnae. A year and a half ago, when the College began to develop a new marketing position, we sent Web surveys to alumnae, hoping that they would candidly share information about their perceptions of the College. And share they did; within 12 hours of launching the survey we had over 20 percent of the alumnae responding. As President Mooney was developing the College’s Strategic Plan, she asked alumnae serving on the Board of Trustees, Madeleva Society Steering Committee, and Alumnae Association Board to share their feedback. These comments helped to mold the fi nal plan. Our alumnae not only helped us plan for the future, they joined the entire college community as we celebrated the beatifi cation of Moreau on campus, in LeMans, and in our communities. This time has given us all an opportunity to refl ect on what is unique to a Holy Cross education. And alumnae played an important role in how Saint Mary’s is ranked among its peer colleges. With this issue we note our progress along many paths—the spiritual journey, the path to leadership, and the road to distinction. Yet, we do so with an eye to what lies ahead. Shari Rodriguez Vice President for College Relations 2 COURIER | Fall 2007 standingout You’re seventeen. In front of you are brochures from half a dozen colleges, each making you promises. You visit their Web sites and fi nd even more information, lots of information. You face one of the most important and infl uential decisions of your life. But how will you recognize the place where you belong amidst the chaos? What will make the college that’s right for you stand out from the others? Standing out is no easy task, even for a unique school. Our namesake, Saint Mary, has been the inspiration for so many endeavors over the years that her name has been attached to institutional monikers everywhere. An internet search for “Saint Mary’s” will return between half a million to two million results. It is in this cacophonous atmosphere that Saint Mary’s College must distinguish itself. Add to that a Catholic heritage and a community that esteems humility as a virtue, and the challenge becomes even greater. It was with this challenge in mind that Saint Mary’s B O B J embarked on the Identity E O * F Initiative. The fi rst task was N B % F to understand the existing S U P / perceptions of Saint Mary’s. t F H F M This was done by surveying M P $ T over 3000 alumnae, faculty, Z S B . U staff, administration, O J B 4 current students, and prospective students and their parents. Based on survey feedback about the core values of our community, the brand promise—what Saint Mary’s stands for— was developed: “Saint Mary’s is an academically excellent Catholic college Cover of admission booklet for high school for women who seek to seniors featuring (left to right) Kristy King ’08, challenge themselves Kim Hodges ’08, and Julia Malone ’07 and their world.” That’s not new. In fact, that’s been true since 1844. But what became apparent was that the characteristics most important to prospective students and their parents corresponded with the College’s strengths. Three strengths stood out, Saint Mary’s best-kept secrets, if you will: The Strength of our Majors: Saint Mary’s academic programs have always been distinctive in their comprehensive approach. The woman who graduates from Saint Mary’s, whether she enters a profession or goes on to graduate school, never doubts her preparation. Outstanding Faculty: Classes at Saint Mary’s are taught by experts in their fi elds of study. That expertise COURIER | Fall 2007 3 Developing Leaders. The strength of mentoring at Saint Mary’s Collegeextends from organized toindividual efforts, with faculty, administrators, and alumnaesetting the standards for students.

HAHN BALL STATE UNIVERSITY MUNCIE, INDIANA MAY 2012 ACKNOWLAGMENTS I could not have completed this project alone. I must thank Dr. Stephan for his continuous guidance and sharp editing eye. Without his help and direction this project would have floundered. I also have to thank the archivists at Saint Mary’s College Archives and the Congregation of the Holy Cross Archives, who helped me find the primary sources that gave this study its depth. In addition, I must thank those closest to me who helped in all of the small (and some large) ways that can never be fully enumerated. To my mom and dad, who provided me not only with necessities, but also with constant support and encouragement, I am forever grateful. To my extended family whose constant questions and at times nagging, helped motivate me to finish this project. To my friend, Melissa Estes, who read draft after draft, listened to my crazy ideas at midnight, who encouraged me and patiently listened to my whining, I wouldn’t have gotten here if you hadn’t constantly reminded me that I could do this. And to all the other friends, Jess, Julie, Erin, Abby, Courtney, and Delia all of whom provided moral support, cookies, and mixed CDs during the writing process, I’m so lucky to have you and I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

  • Christian Education by Bl. Basil Moreau
    Christian Education By Blessed Basil Anthony M. Moreau The Holy Cross Institute AT ST. EDWARD’S UNIVERSITY Editor’s Note First published in 1856, Christian Education is a manuscript by Reverend Basil Anthony M. Moreau, founder of the Congregation of Holy Cross. In this manuscript, Father Moreau attempted to outline the ideals and the goals of a Holy Cross education as he saw them. These ideals were used in setting up the school in Le Mans, France, that bore the name Our Lady of Holy Cross. Part One of the original text, Teachers and Students, is presented in its entirety. Part Two, dealing with the establishment of a school in the France of Father Moreau’s day, provides practical guidelines for maintaining a school and directives regarding content and instruction. This edition includes brief excerpts from the final part (the only difference from the earlier version), which deals with the teaching of religion and the Christian formation of students. Grateful acknowledgement is made to the South-West Province, Congregation of Holy Cross for making Christian Education available in English to the Congregation, and in particular to Brother Edmund Hunt, CSC, for the initial translation, completed in 1986. That edition was ably edited by Brother Franklin Cullen, CSC, and Brother Donald Blauvelt, CSC. The new excerpts included in this edition are from a subsequent translation of Christian Education by Sister Anna Teresa Bayhouse, CSC, completed in December 2002. To this sesquicentennial edition of Christian Education are appended a readers’ guide and materials for further reflection. Grateful acknowledgement goes to the contributions of Brother Joel Giallanza, CSC, Brother Thomas Dziekan, CSC, and Brother Robert Lavelle, CSC, in the preparation of these latter materials.

  • They Came to Serve
    A Chronicle of Women Religious in the Diocese of Dallas 1874-2014 THEY CAME TO SERVE BY SISTER MARY BRIAN BOLE, SSND A 125th Anniversary Publication of the Catholic Diocese of Dallas Archives Introduction Too few people are aware of the courageous sisters who came to serve the Church in Texas in collaboration with the diocesan priests and religious prieests and brothers. Many endured long religious voyages to reach the vineyard to which they had been called. Many died to the dread epidemics of cholera and yellow fever that repeatedly swept over the republic and later the state. Others died protecting the orphans at St. Mary’s Orphanage in Galveston in 1900. Long before our diocese was established in 1890 Ursuline Nuns, Daughters of Charity, Holy Cross Sisters and Sisters of St. Mary Namur had established schools, hospitals and academies in what would become the Dallas diocese. They were but the vanguard of the thousands of women religious from 63 communities who came to serve and are still serving God in this corner of his vineyard. Sister Mary Brian Bole, SSND, gives a glimpse of the labors of these brave consecrated women in this chronicle. Theirs is story that needed to be told and she has done it well. January 1, 2016 Most Rev. Kevin J. Farrell Bishop of Dallas The Author School Sister of Notre Dame Mary Brian Bole, author of They Came to Serve, has held administrative and teaching positions at a number of educational institutions in Texas and Japan, including the University of Dallas, Kyoto Notre Dame University, Kyoto, Japan, Bishop Dunne School, Nolan Catholic High School, Fort Worth, the Highlands School, Irving and Our Lady of Perpetual Help School in Dallas.
