Our Place, Our Pride
There is tremendous loyalty and love for the College: a place that nurtures intellectual ambition and leadership; a place that provides rigorous, relevant and experiential education; a place for everyone with the potential and drive to do the work. Here we value freedom, inclusiveness and diversity - the St. Mary’s Way. The generosity - the outpouring of support we receive - is a tribute to the College and the students we serve.
Philanthropy Highlights
NEW PERFORMING ARTS CENTER AND LEARNING COMMONS
- In 2016, we completed our successful campaign to raise $2.5 million in private gifts to help secure $75 million from the state of Maryland for a project that encompassed a new academic building - including an auditorium - and an athletic stadium complex.
- A second building will house the Educational Studies Department and Masters of Arts in Teaching program and feature a 24-hour study commons with a cafe.
- A 700-seat acoustically tuned auditorium will serve both the campus and Southern Maryland communities.
- In addition to the auditorium, the main building will feature a 125-seat recital hall, classrooms, studios, and offices for the Music Department.
- The project remains on schedule to be open for the fall 2022 semester.

PRS&T Consortium Partners Network with St. Mary's College Students
The College's local Patuxent River Science & Technology Consortium Scholarship partners attended a networking reception on November 16, 2021 with St. Mary's College STEM students. The opportunity to introduce students to potential employers could directly impact Southern Maryland's workforce and ultimately benefit the Department of Defense community. We would like to thank these partners for their continued commitment to our community and the future economy of Southern Maryland.
