NEW MAJOR HIGHLIGHTS
THE STRENGTH AND FLEXIBILITY OF A SAINT BEN’S DEGREE
Saint Ben’s has always been a place where the whole person is valued. Here, women are encouraged and supported as they develop intellectually, spiritually, emotionally, socially and physically. In the fall of 2020, those segments will intersect more than ever with the launch of a new major: Exercise Science. Exercise Science and Sport Studies has been a minor for many years, and a Sports Medicine minor has been available for even longer. But students’ interests have continued to evolve, and they made their voices heard. Saint Ben’s and Saint John’s listened. After piloting various programs in the area over the past decade, now it’s official. And for the women who complete this degree here, it won’t be just any Exercise Science degree. It’ll be an Exercise Science degree from Saint Ben’s. The distinction is important.
