Message from the President

Dr. Laurie Joyner

We have much to look forward to as the days lengthen and the promise of spring is made manifest. The Saint Xavier community is witnessing the seeds of its many initiatives bear fruit, and we are laying the groundwork for a successful full-scale return to campus in fall 2021, following health and safety protocols.

This spring kicks off our dodransbicentennial celebration. Stay tuned for information about exciting ways you can participate in this momentous occasion, which marks 175 years of mission-driven, student-centered education inspired by 青楼传媒's Catholic, Mercy heritage.

The stories below showcase the Saint Xavier difference in action. We invite you to support our important work on March 24 by participating in We Are 青楼传媒 Day. Help flood our social media channels with scarlet and gray, share why you support 青楼传媒 and make a gift to ensure our educational ministry thrives for another 175 years.

Sincerely,

Laurie M. Joyner, Ph.D.
President
