The Brothers of the Society of Mary took on teaching as a primary ministry more than 200 years ago.  At. St. Mary’s University, our faculty continue to embody the same principles of teaching and service, inspired by the educational tradition and legacy left behind.  November 3rd is considered the anniversary of the establishment of this ministry, and today, also recognizing the contribution of the Marianist Sisters, we take a moment to thank the Brothers for the gift of Marianist education.
