Letter from the Editor
September 18th, 2020
To Our Saint Mary's Family,
The Collegian has been a part of the Saint Mary’s Community for 117 years, first publishing in 1903. Over the decades, thousands of students have contributed their opinions to the The Collegian, each bringing a one of a kind flair to the pages of this newspaper. Through pivotal moments in the history of our nation the student staff of The Collegian has covered it all, determined to show their fellow students the truth.
Since the origins of The Collegian, Saint Mary’s College has continued to change, however, through it all the college’s message of the LaSallian values have always remained the same. As the staff of The Collegian we hope to embody the mission of Saint Mary’s through our commitment to creating an environment that fosters learning, creativity, inclusivity and understanding.
We are very excited and honored that we are allowed to contribute to the long legacy of The Collegian, and continue this organization for the next generation of Saint Mary’s students. It is a privilege to be able to work together with so many talented individuals, who each bring a unique perspective to our newspaper. We are dedicated to presenting the Saint Mary’s community with new, honest, and interesting content.
To the staff, it is an honor to serve as your Editor. Your tenacity and dedication to your work inspires me always.
To the Saint Mary’s student body, we thank you for your readership, and your continued support of our mission. All of our work is for you.
To the Saint Mary’s faculty and administration, we thank you for your readership, support, and guidance throughout. You inspire us everyday with your own hard work, and dedication to us as students. Special thanks to Cesar Ramos, and Zachary Tedrow for their mentorship over these past few months.
To our Saint Mary’s alumni, thank you for your continued support and interest in our publication. The paths that you have drawn for us are those that we will continue to make for others.
Through our current global crisis we strive to present the Saint Mary’s community with diverse perspectives, that are very much our own. We strive to be an outlet for the Saint Mary’s community through these difficult times. We hope you enjoy our work!
Sincerely,
Victoria Vidales ‘21
