Student Advocate for Global Engagement (SAGE) Program
N E W!

The Student Advocates for Global Engagement program (SAGE) cultivates the academic, personal, social, and leadership potential of students committed to linking global communities at St. Mary’s College of Maryland.

Through supporting students of diverse backgrounds in academic and multicultural activities and leadership opportunities, the program aims to develop a community of international scholars who will guide the College’s efforts to:

  • deepen understandings of cultural perspectives;
  • expand knowledge about the interconnections among local, international, and global communities;
  • create a campus community climate that is inquisitive and dedicated to appreciating global diversity;
  • build skills in self-reflection, personally and culturally; and
  • promote global engagement and opportunities to serve local and global communities.
