A Message from #SpireNation
Class of 2020, we know this is not the way you expected your time at Saint Mary to end. Remember that these last few months do not define your Saint Mary experience. Your experience will be defined by your personal and intellectual growth and the lasting relationships you developed at USM.
We hope you take time to celebrate the many accomplishments from your USM journey. You deserve it!
Graduates, you are strong and resilient. You are always a Saint Marian.
