St. Mary’s stands out as a friendly and welcoming campus— and it always has, ever since the Marianists (members of the Society of Mary) founded the University more than 150 years ago based on values that emphasize educating in the family spirit for service, justice, and peace.

Inclusively faith-based

The beginning of every semester is marked with a day-long, Universitywide service event called Continuing the Heritage, when you gather with more than 700 other students, faculty, alumni and staff to collectively offer over 3,500 hours of volunteer service in the local area.

Our community, our home

Being neighborly sometimes means doing manual labor like creating pocket parks, or preparing local residents’ taxes for free on Saturdays during tax season. In 2010, St. Mary’s Neighborhood Revitalization Project, in conjunction with the Office of District 7 Councilman Justin Rodriguez, announced the St. Mary’s Gateway District, giving the community an official name.

Fun with liquid nitrogen

The annual Fiesta of Physics takes St. Mary’s students out into the community with guitars, pinwheels, and balloons to share the wonders of acoustics, light spectrums, electricity, and more for local schoolchildren in hands-on demonstrations.

While 65 percent of our students are Catholic, our University Ministry pastoral team promotes spiritual development and growth in community among students of all faiths. In addition to daily Mass and two Masses on Sunday, University Ministry offers prayer gatherings, student retreats, ministry opportunities, and faith and justice activities.

Serving as a role model

Many St. Mary’s students tutor seventh graders in the San Antonio Students Stand and Deliver program, working on the skills that will eventually help them excel on the SAT college entrance exam.

“I love how easy it is to get involved in service outreach at St. Mary’s. Almost every weekend there is some sort of volunteer project going on for students to help with—showing just how important community involvement is on campus.” Mercedes Kelso ’15 Hometown: Boise, Idaho Major: English Activities: Marianist Leadership Program, Catholic Student Group, The Rattler Newspaper, Honors Program

MUCH MORE TO DO.

Community at St. Mary’s begins in the residence halls, where nearly 80 percent of our first-year students live as part of a big family. Before classes even start, you’ll go to Rattlerpalooza, an annual event that gets you acquainted with your fellow students and all of the ways you can pack your days and nights with activities that let you pursue new interests and have lots of fun.

One BIG party! Started as an alumni tradition in 1916, Fiesta Oyster Bake now attracts more than 70,000 people to our campus. It features 30 bands on five stages, a carnival area, a fireworks show, 6,000 turkey legs, 7,500 ears of corn, 25,000 chickens-on-a-stick and 100,000+ oysters. The proceeds support a $6 million scholarship endowment fund that benefits around 70 St. Mary’s students per year.

“Between going to class, attending interesting University events, traveling as the manager of the men’s basketball team, and doing mandatory tasks like laundry and homework, I’m usually very busy— and I love every minute of it!”

Okay, get out your social calendar … Getting involved in some of our more than 80 clubs and student organizations lets you meet new people, plan and organize events, and promote worthy causes.

“I stay active on campus attending many events and socials as a member of the Pre-Dental Society and the Filipino Student Association. Being ranked 6th in the nation for public speaking as a high school student, I continue to share this passion by mentoring local high school students in the art of presentation.” Kara Tapangan ’14 Hometown: Harlingen, Texas Major: Biology (Pre-Dentistry) Activities: Beta Beta Beta, Pre-Dental Society, Intramurals, Filipino Student Association
