Posted By: How May I Help You NC on June 11, 2017 The second week of summer session is well underway. I see so many student faces beaming with the eagerness to learn and pursue their academic journey at Saint Paul College. I would like to take this opportunity to thank our faculty and staff who are dream makers for our students. So many of our students come from various stations around the globe.

Annual Development Conference - I along with the Interim Executive Director of Friends of Saint Paul College foundation, Minnesota State presidents and development executives attended the Annual Development Conference at the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities System Office. We learned the power and influence of clear and concise communication as well as story-telling. I will end this week’s blog by sharing an interaction I had with a student. He told me that he felt our Saint Paul College faculty are really committed to connecting to students, and that our faculty find ways to create the "ah-ha moment" for students. This student stated that he never experienced this type of learning at a neighboring four-year institution! What a testament to dedication and commitment of our faculty Our faculty inspire and ignite the fire of knowledge in our students. I wish you a relaxing weekend.
