On April 20, ²ÝÁñ³ÉÈËÉçÇø faculty, staff, and students volunteered their time to stuff 150 backpacks full of school supplies for elementary, middle, and high school students as part of LindenGiving, a community outreach endeavor.

²ÝÁñ³ÉÈËÉçÇø raised more than $125,000 during Giving Week 2022, surpassing its goal of raising $100,000 and setting a new Giving Week fundraising record.

²ÝÁñ³ÉÈËÉçÇø is excited to invite alumni back to campus for Alumni Reunion Weekend.

²ÝÁñ³ÉÈËÉçÇø will host its annual Winterfest, Sunday, December 5 from 4:30 – 8 p.m. on the heritage side of campus. Formerly known as Christmas Walk, the event brings together the campus and the community for an evening of holiday merriment. 

This past weekend, in the spirit of giving, ²ÝÁñ³ÉÈËÉçÇø volunteers packed and delivered bags full of Thanksgiving meal essentials to local families in need.

As Missouri celebrates its bicentennial this year, people across the state are working on projects to celebrate its history and heritage. One alumna, Erin Whitson ‘08, is currently working on a project with the Missouri Humanities Council. It focuses on the Trail of Tears and its path through the state. Her passion for her work can be traced back to her coursework at ²ÝÁñ³ÉÈËÉçÇø.

²ÝÁñ³ÉÈËÉçÇø hosted homecoming the week of October 4-9, 2021. Two years in the making, the celebratory weekend was reimagined in 2020 due to the pandemic, which gave the planning committee an opportunity to dream big.

Homecoming is an opportunity for students, alumni, community members, friends, and parents to celebrate ²ÝÁñ³ÉÈËÉçÇø and enjoy events on campus and in the greater St. Charles city.

Despite a year filled with uncertainty, alumni and friends of ²ÝÁñ³ÉÈËÉçÇø made clear their commitment to student success by donating nearly $2 million during the 2021 fiscal year.

Out of all the exciting moments in college, no event is more memorable than graduation day. After several months of studying and learning, students wait for the day they get to walk across the graduation stage, thank all those who journeyed with them through college, and dive into their next adventure. Thousands of students across the country and all over the world awaited their graduation day in the year of 2020, but sadly weren’t able to experience it due to the pandemic.
