Our Mission

The Communications and Marketing team supports the mission of the College by producing all major College publications in printed and electronic form. The office also is responsible for maintaining the College’s identity standards policy and coordinating campus photography. The office works with departments across St. Mary’s College to support the design and production of print and electronic material.

Any publication (including electronic format such as PDF) intended for off-campus distribution to 100 or more people (via postal mail, email, social media or hand distribution such as flyers or posters) must be approved in advance by the Office of Communications & Marketing. Strict adherence to the brand guidelines is required for approval.
