We met so many interesting friends during our BSPA summer residency.One of the highlights was taking Virginia- a native Indian to see the ocean, Lynn Beach,Massachusetts,for the very first time.

I was fortunate to have received both undergraduate and graduate degrees through the distance education program. In so doing, I spent several summer weeks on campus. Saint Joseph's campus must be one of the most beautiful, relaxing, peaceful places on earth...filled not only with incredible learning, but also such a refreshing, rejuvenating experience, both physically and mentally. May you continue to provide an extraordinary educational experience by God's grace.

So glad to have had four years of learning under the Sisters of Mercy during my time at Saint Joseph's College. God Bless them! Gratefully, Dorothea Michaels, class of 1961

In honor of Julius Davis

I'm proud of my alma mater. SJCME blessed me the ideal platform to complete my BS in CRJ while I served on active duty. It continues in the same tradition of EXCELLENCE today, which warrants my continued support.

Sister Eunice was my first office mate when I started at the College. We bonded over the Clinton impeachment proceedings. She watched it in the office on TV during her every free minute of the day. She couldn’t believe, with the state of Earth and all the environmental issues we faced on the planet, that the federal government was spending their time on this ‘ridiculous issue’. She was a true environmentalist.

I am making my donation to honor Sr. Mary Jude, who made a big impact for me to start my lifelong business career! Thanks Sister!
