Meet Our Alumnae
Saint Mary’s women are amazing! They’re articulate, smart, and driven. They lean in to their passions with care and compassion, and face difficult endeavors with strong critical-thinking skills. The world sees them as well-rounded women who lead with empathy and integrity. We see them as Belles — strong symbols of what Saint Mary’s stands for and incredible examples of how we prepare our students to discover themselves and their place in the world.
Browse this small selection of our incredible alumnae to see what path they took here at Saint Mary’s as well as how they put their minds and hearts to work in the world.
Saint Mary’s was the best place for me to grow as a student, friend, daughter, and athlete. For underclassman Belles, i advise you to take every moment in. Enjoy the good and the hard times, do not lose yourself along the way of your college journey. Remember when you leave, you will always have a home to come back to. The next four years will fly by, so use every chance you get to grow as a person and as a Belle.

“Chosen by God, for this new life of love, dress in the wardrobe God picked out for you: compassion, kindness, humility, quiet strength, discipline. Be even tempered, content with second place, quick to forgive an offense. Forgive as quickly and completely as the Master forgave you, and regardless of what else you put on, wear LOVE. It’s your basic, all purpose garment. Never be without it."Colossians 3:12-17

SMC has given me the college experience of a lifetime. It has been my home away from home for four years and a place that will be so hard to leave. The friends I’ve made, professors I’ve had, & traditions I’ve experienced are ones that I will forever cherish forever. Belle yeah! Thank you for everything, Saint Mary’s College!

Saint Mary's gave me the opportunity to receive an amazing education through small class sizes and caring professors, while also being able to continue my love for dance by cheering on the Irish! I've also met some of my best friends during these four years and I cannot express how grateful I am to be a Belle.
