FROM THE PRESIDENT

Dear Members of the Mount Saint Mary College Community:

Your amazing support for the Mount – in ways big and small, measured in your time, ideas, and donations – have a direct and lasting effect on the lives of students. From our vibrant classrooms, libraries, and athletic fields to our dedicated students benefiting from a variety of scholarships and mentorship opportunities, I am blessed to see the fruits of your labor each day on campus. The Advancement Committee of the Board of Trustees, and my talented colleagues in the Advancement office and Marketing office, worked hard to bring you this Mount Saint Mary College Donor Impact Report. I thank them for their extraordinary dedication to the project, and I hope you enjoyed what you found in these pages. This Donor Impact Report is a lasting record of those who have so generously given of themselves to benefit our college community, and offers a unique perspective on the ways in which your volunteer efforts and philanthropic endeavors dramatically improve the college’s academic programs, studentlearning initiatives, and overall campus culture. Moreover, the report demonstrates how your contributions reflect and continue the distinguished and laudable legacy of the Dominican Sisters. Like our founding sisters, it is clear that our supporters have made the four Dominican Pillars of study, spirituality, community, and service a part of their everyday lives.

When they arrived in Newburgh in 1883, the Dominican Sisters had their hearts and minds set on

scholarship and service. What they built for us goes beyond brick and mortar, beyond just a place to get an education. For our students, our distinguished friends, our faculty and staff, and our nearly 20,000 alumni, Mount Saint Mary College is a place to live, grow, serve, and thrive. As we celebrate our 60th anniversary, please take a moment to remember that you are an essential part of that legacy. You have all been instrumental in the success of the college and its students, and for that, we are extremely grateful.

I can’t thank you enough for everything you do to help make the Mount such an incredible place. These stories reflect the college’s deep commitment to service – and to providing pathways of opportunity to students and community stakeholders. As we embark on and expand this vision of service in our next strategic plan, I look forward to seeing how each new story builds upon the Dominican and Catholic legacy of serving others.

My heartfelt thanks, A

Dr. Jason N. Adsit President Mount Saint Mary College

Mount Saint Mary College 330 Powell Avenue Newburgh, New York 12550
