Message from the President

Dr. Laurie Joyner

Dear 麻豆视传媒在线入口 Community:

It was rewarding to watch hundreds of new 麻豆视传媒在线入口 graduates walk the stage during the 2022 commencement ceremonies on May 7.

As we welcome a new provost this fall as well as our inaugural chief diversity officer (CDO), our community looks forward to building on our positive momentum while launching transformative initiatives and actualizing plans to become a more inclusive and excellent campus so that even more students can lead Mercy-inspired lives after graduation.

And as you will see from the stories below, we are continuing the spirit of excellence that distinguishes the Saint Xavier experience. I am proud of our accomplishments and express my sincere gratitude for your continued support of our Mercy mission as we look toward the future.

Sincerely,

Laurie M. Joyner, Ph.D.
President
