A Mother’s Lasting Gift for Her Daughter
In 1990, Jennifer Herzog Clark ’90 graduated from Saint Mary's with a heart full of literature, a gift for writing, and the love of her professor and peers. A joyful soul who cherished Faulkner, Plath, and quiet moments at the Grotto, Jennifer lived her life with grace—even through a decade-long battle with brain cancer that took her too soon, just shy of her 20th reunion. Today, thanks to the enduring love of her family and friends, Jennifer’s light shines on through a scholarship endowment in her name. From a memorial bench beneath the shade trees outside the dining hall to a lasting investment in the futures of young women, her story is one of inspiration, resilience, and faith.

First Generation Community Thrives at Saint Mary’s College
First generation student Mish Yepez-Cornejo ’26 has a summer job lined up in the Office for Student Equity at Saint Mary’s. Her recent creation of Hidden Syllabus, a comprehensive resource guide for fellow first gens covers everything from traditions like The Ring to navigating academics, finances, and myriad other topics that students may not know, with helpful links throughout. In it, she shared: “As a first gen student, you might sometimes feel like you're charting unknown territory,” she said. “There may be moments when you wonder if you truly belong or if you're making the right decisions. But students should remember, they’ve earned their place here, and they have everything it takes to succeed.”

Nursing Students Simulate Campus Disaster
Recently, the Department of Nursing Science hosted the first Senior Nursing Simulation Day at Saint Mary’s College. For this particular simulation—a staged disaster—a chemical explosion in a college laboratory provided the backdrop for the 57 nursing students who attended to “victims” of the accident. With help from the Theatre and Chemistry departments, six simulation stations were created in and around Regina Hall, home of the Center for Integrated Healthcare Education (CIHE) and the College’s multiple nursing programs. All of the students who participated in the day-long exercise will graduate on May 17 with their bachelor's or master's degrees in nursing.

In the Spotlight: Marwan Gebran
I was raised in a Catholic family and taught by Jesuits throughout my education, so I wanted to give this opportunity to my children. When you come from another country, you want to go somewhere secure, close to yourself, and where you are used to. The Catholic education, culture, and way of living was the main thing that I was attracted to at Saint Mary’s. I have now been here for four years.

We Promise You Discovery
Sister Madeleva’s promise to the Saint Mary’s community resonates with students past and present, here and abroad. Catherine Kirkpatrick ’19, a Maynooth program alumna has been living in Ireland for five years since graduating from Saint Mary’s. “None of this would have ever happened without that study abroad experience,” she said. “For me, the program truly fulfilled the promise of Saint Mary’s—the discovery of the universe and your place in it.”

All In The Family
Last fall, senior Abby Hanson ’25 was walking to her medical terminology class at Saint Mary’s College when up ahead, she spied a student she knew. She called out to her, “Grandma!” When she heard this familiar pet name, her classmate turned around and waited for Abby to catch up. The two hugged and continued on their way. It was a typical student interaction played out every day on campus.
