A message from Fr. Kevin E. Mackin, OFM
President of Mount Saint Mary College
Dear Friends:
Welcome to Mount Saint Mary College’s website. Here, you can
find information about our programs and campus life, and apply
online.
I hope you have the opportunity to visit our beautiful campus: a
“gem” in historic Newburgh, New York, overlooking the Hudson River
Valley. If you’re a prospective student, you’ll experience
firsthand our wireless campus with the latest technology, our
“smart classrooms” and laboratories, our nicely equipped residence
halls, and most important, our state-of-the-art community.
As a Catholic and Dominican college in the liberal arts
tradition, we are guided by values and opportunities, and are
recognized for excellence in teaching, learning, scholarship and
community engagement. Catholic education is a rich tapestry of men
and women working across fields of study, surfacing gifts which are
enlightening and beneficial.
We are committed to the intellectual, social, ethical, and
spiritual development of our students: preparing them for
professions and developing their full potential as lifelong
learners.
Our students bring a vigor that invites people to become
involved in our diverse and vibrant community. The truth is, to
lead is to understand others well enough to awaken their trust in
themselves.
We invite you to participate at the Mount, where we develop
skills of mind and habits of heart. I look forward to meeting
you.
Sincerely,
Fr. Kevin E. Mackin, OFM
President
