My teaching philosophy is that students should be active learners rather than passive recipients of knowledge. As such, I challenge my students to do work of high quality, to show mastery over the material through understanding and hands-on learning and eventually to develop habits that make them lifelong critical thinkers. As a scientist, I am actively engaged in studying host-parasite associations. I use parasites of freshwater fishes to address fundamental questions of speciation, the nature of species and the biology of invasive parasites. The research involves a mixture of field work and lab work, and uses morphological and molecular techniques. Long-term collaborations and projects include research in Canada, Mexico, Panama, and in the United States and involve scientists there.

Loving the cold, snowy winter I went to Northern Michigan University and majored in biochemistry. As an undergraduate I spent six months studying British history and culture in the Duke of Northumberland's castle, made famous as the setting for the Harry Potter movies. I also spent a summer in China. Upon graduation I had no idea what I wanted to do, so I applied to and was accepted as the first graduate student in the new Master of Chemistry program at Northern Michigan University. This gave me my first experience as a teaching assistant. I loved teaching and decided to get a Ph.D. So I went off to the beautiful Pacific Northwest and earned my Ph.D. in bioanalytical chemistry at Washington State University working with Jim Schenk. I continued my education with a three-year post doc in the physiology department at the University of Wisconsin-Madison working in the lab of Edwin Chapman. Eager to finally make some money, I took a job at a biotech company in Madison. After a year I decided it was time to teach. I came to St. Norbert College four years ago and love teaching. At St. Norbert College I teach biochemistry I and II and quantitative and instrumental analysis. I am married and have two daughters, Audrey and Violet. I love any outdoor activity. Education B.S.

I teach courses in Systemic Physiology, Human Anatomy and Physiology, Endocrinology, and Neuroscience, in addition to introductory and General Education Program courses in biology. In each of these courses my goal is to interest and engage students in biological study, the scientific process, and the comprehension and effective production of scientific writing. In the lab, students and I investigate the cellular and systemic mechanisms important to neuronal change, and how these underlie (or are affected by) behavioral processes like learning, memory, and stress. Specifically, we use a songbird, the zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata), as a model organism to study the brain's multiple memory systems, like those involving the hippocampus, a structure important for the consolidation of episodic-like or "spatial" memory (such as the ability of a bird to remember the location of a food source), or those integral to procedural memory (like that involved in the production of song learned, in most songbirds, during a restricted period in development). Current experiments in the lab examine the connectivity of and neurotrophic input to hippocampal neurons and, in collaboration with colleagues at Lehigh and Northern Michigan universities, the structural and functional consequences of endocrine manipulation of cells in the hippocampus as well as the neurochemistry of the region.

I also teach the first semester of General Biology, and bring microbiology to the General Education program in the form of a course on Bioterrorism. As microbiologist, I feel a responsibility to bring an appreciation of bacteria and viruses to the study of biology, as they make up roughly half of the world's biomass and more than half of its genetic diversity. Central to my educational philosophy is the involvement of students in independent research. The core research in my lab addresses questions of bacterial physiology in the genus Flavobacterium, a common, understudied group of organisms. Flavobacteria are members of a large and diverse group of bacteria important in carbon cycling and the cause of diseases of aquatic organisms. I am specifically interested in a behavior called gliding motility and its relation to pathogenesis. Many Flavobacteria move over surfaces in response to stimuli using a mechanism called gliding motility. My students, colleagues, and I work to understand this mechanism using molecular techniques. We use similar techniques to study how pathogenic Flavobacteria cause disease in fish, and the relationship between motility and biofilm formation. We also use our model of Flavobacterium infection in zebra fish to study fundamental questions of immune function. I maintain active collaborations with colleagues at The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, The University of Rhode Island and USDA/ARS aquaculture lab in West Virginia. Because microbiology and molecular techniques are widely applicable in biology, I also support research projects outside of my interest in Flavobacterium. Examples of such projects include determining the prevalence of Staph. aureus (and potentially MRSA) among college students and the effect of endocrine disruption on the bacterial population of the songbird gut.

I was shocked. Coming from seminary to a Catholic college, I think I had assumed we would be taught what the Magisterium said, and that it would be that to which we would be held accountable. But this was Intro to Philosophy, taught by Bob Vanden Burgt (Philosophy, Emeritus), where we talked about Plato but also about Jean-Paul Sartre and Albert Camus. It was a genuine, free discussion and there was no heavy-handedness about it. As a student in the 1970s, I learned here that the classroom was a special haven. As I got to learn about academic freedom, I came to understand that this college, and other colleges, are special places where we have an unusual opportunity to talk freely together; where we can let our imaginations run; where we have the privilege of thinking out loud and testing out ideas. I felt almost like an eagle, soaring. It made me want to listen more, to try and understand. I remember being surprised and impressed by how non-judgmental professors were in their presentations of perspectives that were often not considered "orthodox." They wanted us to understand diverse views and appreciate both the strengths and limitations of them. They encouraged understanding before criticizing or dismissing ideas that were different. It was essentially an experience of Norbertine hospitality: not only of the classroom through the professors' friendliness and concern -- and many of them were, in fact, Norbertine priests -- but of seeing how diverse perspectives and views were welcomed, presented and discussed. As a scholar, I have had the opportunity to develop a deeper understanding of the academic context of my own student experience and, as a teacher, to this day, I continue to live in that tradition. I try to avoid caricature of positions and strive to have students understand the nuances of diverse perspectives. In my discipline of religious studies, that means welcome discussion of, for instance, fundamentalism, evangelicalism, main-line religious perspectives or atheism. As for my own faith, I think that, at one time, I found God more in the answers. Now, I find God in the questions -- in the probing and the challenging. Our best moments of asking the toughest questions are buoyed up by the spirit of God. I've really become aware of the mystery of a living God who surprises us -- sometimes uncomfortably.

I have published on Nietzsche, specifically on his engagement with ancient thought. My work in ancient Greek philosophy concentrates on Presocratic thought and its intersections with ancient medicine, law, rhetoric, drama and historiography. Topically, my interests range broadly, though I am particularly attracted to issues in ethics and moral psychology, where I gravitate -- perhaps not surprisingly, given my historical interests -- toward naturalistic, aretaic approaches. I find, too, that I enjoy applying philosophical methods to theoretical problems in other disciplines such as art, religion, science and history. I am convinced that one cannot receive a truly liberal education without practicing philosophy. Moreover, one cannot learn to practice philosophy without learning about the history of philosophy, and I am extremely pleased to teach at an institution that recognizes the value of our intellectual and spiritual traditions.

Educational psychology provides a significant piece of the foundational knowledge teachers need to guide student learning. The field has three main strands: human development, learning and motivation and assessment and evaluation. The Psychology of Teaching course (along with EDUC 125) is the initial course in our teacher education program. Thus, I work with first-year and sophomore pre-service teachers to help them generate a solid understanding of how children learn and what motivates them to achieve. In the Early Adolescent Block, I serve as the leader of an integrated experience that provides pre-service teachers with the opportunity to study the nature and needs of early adolescent learners, the structure of schools for these students, as well as the curriculum and teaching strategies that are effective with students at this level. Pre-service teachers in the EAB are also given the opportunity to teach groups of early adolescent students during two collaborative projects at our partner middle school. In addition to my teaching responsibilities, I serve as the education discipline's accreditation coordinator. In this role, I work with the chair and members of the discipline to coordinate an ongoing review of the discipline's certification programs, including collection and analysis of student performance and program data. My professional work centers on collaborations between higher education and K-12 schools and assessment. One of my major activities in recent years involved serving as a program evaluation consultant for science and geography education programs. My research interests include: defining an effective model of achievement for pre-service teachers and assessment systems to measure relevant learning outcomes within such a model, judging student competence and teacher quality, how changes in technology and consumption of information have affected student learning and motivation, and effective assessment of teacher dispositions.

The Life of St. Norbert Watch More Learn More Strong relationship with the Norbertines St. Norbert College is proudly sponsored by the Norbertine order in De Pere, Wis., whose priests play an active role in campus life as leaders, trustees, cabinet members and faculty.

Born into nobility, Norbert initially lived a life of luxury and dissolution before his dramatic conversion in 1121, which is depicted in a monumental statue on campus. About St. Norbert Today, the Norbertine order includes abbeys and communities around the world, including St. Norbert Abbey in De Pere, Wis. The abbey played a central role in the founding of St. Norbert College. The Norbertine tradition remains the cornerstone of the college's mission and values. It continues to guide St. Norbert College's commitment to academic excellence, spiritual development and service to the common good. St. Norbert Abbey A legacy of faith and learning St. Norbert College, a Catholic liberal arts institution rooted in the Norbertine tradition, was founded in October 1898 by Abbot Bernard Pennings, a Dutch immigrant priest. Established in De Pere, Wis., to educate young men for the priesthood, it soon broadened its mission with a commerce program for lay students to meet the growing educational needs of northeastern Wisconsin. Enrollment expanded rapidly after World War II, leading the college to become coeducational in 1952. Abbot Pennings served as president until his retirement in 1955, and his vision -- to foster the personal, moral, and intellectual growth of each student -- continues to guide the college today.

Apply for Aid Start your path to Affordability File the FAFSA We strongly suggest that you submit the FAFSA by the SNC priority filing date of Jan. 1, in order to be eligible for the most financial aid. Some sources of financial aid are limited, and those who submit applications received after Feb. 1 could miss out on certain types of funding. Submit the FAFSA For international students If you're an international student, there are opportunities for financial aid during the admission process. Learn More Financial aid offer If you're an incoming student who applied for financial aid for the upcoming academic year, you could receive your financial aid decision letter sometime in February, based on when you completed your college application and FAFSA. Returning students will receive their financial aid letters in April or later. Learn More How to apply for aid When it's time to figure out how to pay for college, what's the most important task on your to-do list? Fill out the FAFSA, of course! Begin form The application is a straightforward online form that's managed by the federal government. Remember, the FAFSA is a free application. Even if you don't think you'll qualify for need-based aid, we encourage you to apply. You may be surprised! Be sure to list SNC as a school of choice when you complete the FAFSA. St. Norbert's federal school code is 003892 You will use this code when completing your FAFSA Learn about SAI When you submit the FAFSA, the results will include your Student Aid Index, or SAI. The SAI is a number used by financial aid offices to determine how much federal financial aid you may receive, based on the information provided on the FAFSA. Financial need is the difference between the total cost of attendance (tuition and fees, housing, food, transportation, personal expenses, and books, course materials, supplies and equipment) and your SAI. College financial aid offices use the data from your completed FAFSA to build aid offers that best fit your financial need. Each college uses its own methodology to calculate how much aid students are offered. SNC looks carefully at your family's SAI (associated with your FAFSA) to determine your level of need for the upcoming academic year. We factor in all of the information available to us, and put together a financial aid offer specifically for you. Verify FAFSA Verification is the process used to confirm the information you have reported on your FAFSA form is accurate. If the U.S. Department of Education selects your FAFSA for verification, St. Norbert College will facilitate the process of requesting and reviewing documentation required by federal student financial aid program regulations. The college may also request your FAFSA for verification to resolve any discrepancies. If any corrections are needed to the reported information, SNC will submit the corrections on your FAFSA to ensure your eligibility for financial aid has been calculated accurately. You can find additional information regarding documentation considerations in the guide to your financial aid offer. Frequently asked questions How will I know if I have been selected for verification? You may see a note on your FAFSA Submission Summary after submitting your FAFSA. Any forms being requested will be viewable in your SNC student portal, and the office of financial aid will send you regular emails until all documentation has been received. If I am selected for verification does that mean I completed my FAFSA inaccurately? Being selected for verification does not mean you are being accused of doing anything wrong. The U.S. Department of Education selects a certain percentage of FAFSA applicants for verification each year. This is not an indication that there is anything wrong with your FAFSA application, but does require our office to verify certain data elements on the FAFSA. If I am selected for verification, how do I know what documents I need to provide? Our office will only request necessary documents to complete the verification process, and specific documentation requests will vary. You may be asked to provide documentation to verify income and tax information, household size and household information, identity and statement of educational purpose, and other data elements. The documents will be listed in your student portal, and you will receive emails from the office of financial aid reminding you of documentation needed to complete the review of your FAFSA and finalize your financial aid offer. How do I submit the requested verification documentation? In your student portal, click on the name of the document to complete any online forms. Other documents may be submitted securely via our upload portal, faxed to 920-403-3062 or mailed to our office. Specific instructions can be found by selecting the dropdown for any listed document requests. All submitted information will remain confidential.Please avoid uploading documents that have not been requested as unnecessary submissions may slow application review.

We encourage you to educate yourself thoroughly about these options before making decisions. You can count on our St. Norbert College staff for financial aid help as you consider how to best use aid to achieve your college and career goals. Apply for Aid Scholarships, grants, and loans help cover college costs, based on merit, talent or financial need. The college offers payment plans where you can make partial payments over a period of time, rather than one large payment. Many SNC students work part-time campus jobs to help cover college costs, including tuition, books, supplies and personal expenses.

However, your cost of attendance will likely be much lower than the "sticker price." Most students at St. Norbert College receive financial aid to help lower the bill. Calculate your Cost Use the Net Price Calculator to answer questions about your grades and family finances, and get an estimate of potential scholarships and grants. It's the best first step to see how much college might cost you. Calculate your Cost The Net Price Calculator provides only an estimate, not a financial aid offer, and actual costs may differ. It's designed for full-time, first-year U.S. students, and may be less accurate for those with divorced/separated parents or parents who own businesses.

If you're facing special financial circumstances, please contact our office. We will help you determine the right forms and documentation to submit for review. Understanding your financial aid offer Find clear answers to common questions about interpreting your financial aid offer. What about the sticker price? Don't let a college's "sticker price" fool you! When comparing financial aid offers from different schools, it's important to look at two things: Your final out-of-pocket cost How much money you'll borrow (in loans) and have to repay At SNC, our typical financial aid offer is composed of two-thirds grants or scholarships, and one-third loans or work-study. Do I need to accept all of the aid offered? You may accept all of the financial aid offered to you -- or you may choose to accept only some of the components of the award. If you choose to attend SNC, our office of financial aid will automatically apply the scholarships and grants in your offer to your SNC bill. However, you must choose whether or not to accept loans or participate in work study. For example, some students choose to accept a Federal Direct Subsidized Loan but not a Federal Direct Unsubsidized Loan. We publish a guide to understanding your financial aid offer yearly -- please read the terms and conditions carefully. How do I access my offer? If you are an incoming student considering St. Norbert who has received notification that your financial aid offer is available to view online, you can view your offer online through student portal. If you are deposited or enrolled at SNC, your financial aid offer is available through KnightLine, our secure student portal. Use your SNC email address and password to log into KnightLine, then select "Financial Aid Dashboard." KnightLine is where you will be able to accept or decline any federal student loans offered to you. The short video tutorial below, created by SNC students, will show you how to log in and accept or decline the components of financial aid you have been offered in KnightLine. How do I submit documents to the office of financial aid? Here is a list of step-by-step instructions on how to securely upload you documents for the office of financial aid to review: Click on "Secure Upload" after you've clicked the "Upload your documents" button below Enter your name and email address.

Secure upload Guide to your financial aid offer Make it a point to bookmark and return to this page every year when it's time to think about reapplying for next year's financial aid. In the meantime, let's explore your SNC financial aid offer. How to interpret your financial aid offer Ensure fair expectations While financial aid can come in handy, you and your family are primarily responsible for paying for your college education. If your resources aren't sufficient to cover the costs, then you could be eligible for a variety of financial aid programs to bridge the gap. Most students pay for their college education from a range of sources: family support, personal savings, scholarships, grants, loans and money they earn at a part-time job. Account for all college expenses Your financial aid offer is based on the upcoming academic year's total billed expenses from SNC: tuition, housing, food and required fees. (Personal expenses, books, course materials, supplies and equipment, and transportation to and from home are expenses that students incur, but these costs are not billed to them by SNC.) If you're curious about the details, review the complete breakdown of costs for each academic year, as provided by our student account services office. Explore your fair financial aid offer Every student's financial situation is unique. This means that SNC's financial aid staff created your financial aid offer just for you, based on the precise data from your financial aid application (FAFSA) and related documentation. We use one set of rules to determine your eligibility for aid. While your SNC financial aid offer was tailored specifically for you, the details of your individual offer are based on a standard formula. SNC follows a uniform approach to evaluating each individual student's financial need, so that we can be fair to every student who applies for aid. Consider your sources of aid Does your aid come in the form of grants, scholarships, work aid or loans? When you and your family review your SNC financial aid decision, take the time to read about the types of aid that you have been offered. The choice you make about paying for college has long-term consequences, so now is the time to make sure you understand them. Learn about the various sources of aid available to incoming and returning students. Please note: St. Norbert College scholarships and grants are often funded by a St. Norbert endowed or annual scholarship. At a later date, you may learn the specific name of the endowed or annual scholarships and the name of the donor who helped make them possible. Account for any outside assistance Federal regulations [34 CFR 673.5(b)] require all colleges to take into account any resources they know about (or can anticipate a student receiving) when awarding and disbursing financial aid. This means that if you receive monetary awards from sources other than SNC, you are required to notify the office of financial aid of the details. SNC is required to adjust your financial aid offer to incorporate any outside sources of financial aid according to federal, state, and institutional policy. How to use financial aid to pay your college bill Understand your financial aid schedule and availability of funds Scholarship, grant and loan funds are usually divided equally between the fall and spring semesters, with the exception of wages you may earn from working on campus. Scholarship and grant funds awarded by private sources aren't applied to your account until the money is received by SNC. Once SNC receives these funds, we apply them to your bill for the term indicated on the information attached to the funds we received. Federal loans won't be applied to your account unless you've previously completed entrance counseling and master promissory note requirements. Title IV recipients must have a way to purchase or obtain books and supplies no later than the seventh day of a payment period if a) The institution could disburse the Title IV, HEA program funds for which the student is eligible; and b) Presuming the funds were disbursed, the student would have a credit balance under 34 CFR 668.164(h). The college ensures this by allowing all students to charge books and supplies from the SNC bookstore to their student account. Note: Students may purchase or rent books from the SNC bookstore; however, they are not required to do so. Some financial aid that is funded by federal and/or state grants is dependent on available funds. Rest assured, SNC will include all available sources of federal and state financial aid in your decision letter. Graduate on timeAll grant and scholarship aid you receive from SNC is disbursed (or paid out) equally each semester, for a maximum of eight semesters. Most SNC students graduate after completing their eighth semester. If you enroll for a ninth or 10th semester outside of our four-year graduation guarantee, you won't be eligible for St. Norbert grant or scholarship programs. Consider payment plans and other financing Many families take advantage of college payment plans. SNC offers payment plans that allow you to make partial payments over a period of time, rather than making one large payment. Learn about SNC payment plans. Check your eligibility for the Yellow Ribbon Program SNC proudly participates in the Yellow Ribbon Program, a veteran benefits program. If your financial aid offer includes Yellow Ribbon Program funds, your other sources of aid will be adjusted according to all applicable policies and requirements. Please note: All SNC funds offered in advance of veteran benefits meet Yellow Ribbon Program matching requirements. How to plan for next year Renew your financial aid each year We want to be sure that the financial aid you receive each year is based on updated information about your financial need -- as well as available sources of grants, scholarships and loans. SNC students need to apply for financial aid each academic year of their enrollment. Being late could mean less money If you would like to be considered for financial aid, you are responsible for completing your application on a timely basis. Make a note in your calendar: the priority filing date for submitting the FAFSA is Feb. 1; if you submit your application after that date, SNC will consider your application on a funds-available basis. Maintain your merit scholarship If you received merit-based scholarships in your offer, the renewal criteria are outlined in the original scholarship award notice, not your financial aid letter; be sure to confirm all the details. You could lose your merit scholarship if you fail to maintain the requirements stipulated by your scholarship award. Why your aid amount could change in the future SNC provides grant and scholarship assistance to undergraduate students for a maximum of eight semesters. We'll renew your need-based aid as long as you provide evidence of similar financial need, as our institutional resources permit. SNC students and families feel reassured knowing that our financial aid offers tend to remain relatively consistent from year to year, if there have been no significant changes in your family situation. Changes that could impact your aid include: parent or personal income or assets increased or decreased, the size of your household change.What are other reasons your financial aid amount may change at some point in the future? Be sure to review these topics below very carefully. Documentation considerations Our team of financial aid professionals will reach out to you if we are in need of documentation to complete or disburse your financial aid offer. Requests for documentation will be sent to you via email and are also viewable in KnightLine. Failure to submit documentation Students will receive no federal, state or institutional need-based aid disbursements until all required documents requested have been received. Failure to submit documentation by the established deadline/timeframes may result in forfeiture of aid. If you don't apply for these types of aid, you will not receive them. Incomplete financial aid application You must submit all required documents before your aid offer can be determined. Your offer may change if your FAFSA data was estimated, and the actual data confirmed later reflects a different financial situation. SNC will confirm your offer of aid only after all information in your application file is complete, accurate, and confirmed. Missed deadlines Students must provide documentation within 30 days of notification and no later than 7 days prior to the end of a student's enrollment in a term for federal, state and institutional need-based aid. At the discretion of the office of financial aid, you may still be provided aid after these deadlines. For the purposes of Pell Grant disbursement only, verification documentation will be accepted up to 120 days after the last day of the student's enrollment. Change in family circumstance Your financial situation may change from year to year. For example, your parent(s) may get a raise -- or lose their job. There are many reasons why changes in your family's circumstances could change the amount of aid you receive in the future. It is important that you communicate with the SNC office of financial aid as soon as you know about any substantial variations in your household income or family size. Your financial aid offer could be adjusted based on this information. You may be required to provide verification of college enrollment for your siblings during the fall or spring. You're expected to apply for all available financial aid, including federal student loans, before being considered for special circumstances. Any possible increase in SNC aid will be related to the availability of college resources. Important enrollment information Definition of full-time enrollment Part or all of your financial aid offer is based on your full-time enrollment at SNC, so make sure you are clear on the definition of a full-time student. A full-time SNC undergraduate enrollment is defined as 12 or more credits per semester. Changes to your enrollment status If, at any time during a term, you consider taking fewer than 12 credits eligible for your program of study (or dropping a course), please contact the office of financial aid to determine the changes that might be made to your financial aid offer as a result. Unless otherwise noted, your financial aid offer is based on full-time enrollment (with all classes being required for your program of study) for a full academic year. If your SNC enrollment of courses required for your program of study is less than full-time, or for less than a full academic year, your financial aid offer will be adjusted accordingly. Only full-time students are eligible for SNC grants and scholarships. Some other forms of financial assistance require you to be enrolled at least half-time. Repeat coursework Based on federal regulations, you cannot receive financial aid to pay for courses that have been passed and repeated more than one time. This means that a student can only receive financial aid for one repetition of a previously passed course. Withdrawal If you withdraw or are suspended at any point during a semester, your financial aid will be adjusted according to federal and institutional refund policies. Be sure to review these policies in detail. If you withdraw from all courses eligible for your program of study it is considered a withdrawal for the term, even if you remain enrolled in courses not eligible for your program, and your financial aid will be adjusted accordingly. Course Program of Study Course Program of Study, often referred to as CPOS, is a requirement of the U.S. Department of Education that mandates that only the courses in a student's declared major or minor program will determine that student's eligibility for federal financial aid. To maintain eligibility for full-time federal financial aid, undergraduate students must be enrolled in a minimum of 12 credit hours within their degree program. If an undergraduate student falls below the 12-credit hour threshold, their federal financial aid will be adjusted proportionally based on the total number of qualifying hours. Full-time enrollment for graduate students is 6 credits (3 credits is part-time). Changes to your housing status If your housing status changes, your financial aid offer will be adjusted accordingly. If you're considering a change in your housing status, we encourage you to contact the office of financial aid to determine how that may impact your financial aid offer. Study abroad Your enrollment in a program of study abroad approved for credit by St. Norbert College may be considered enrollment at St. Norbert College for the purpose of applying for financial aid assistance under the title IV, HEA programs. This does not apply to programs where you are considered enrolled solely through the other institution, typically offered during j-term and summer. Satisfactory Academic Progress All students who receive college financial aid must maintain Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) standards, as required by federal regulations. These standards are based on criteria such as completion rate, cumulative grade point average (GPA) and maximum time frame. SNC reviews academic records at the end of the spring semester to identify students whose financial aid may be at risk due to poor academic performance. If you're not meeting the federal standards, you may lose eligibility for federal, state and college financial aid funds. In short, slipping grades could jeopardize your college plans -- so stay on track! Student responsibilities Students are responsible for: Providing valid information on the financial aid application. Keeping the financial aid office informed of changes in family circumstances. Notifying the financial aid office of any assistance received from outside sources.

It happens on your way to Ruth's Marketplace with your friends. It happens during a study session with your floormates. It happens while you're up late having a heart-to-heart with your roommate. It's what happens when you live on campus. That's why St. Norbert offers a four-year residential college experience. Our residential community Residential Education & Housing provides many types of housing to meet student needs, including residence halls, suite-style living arrangements, apartments, townhouses and houses. We even have halls dedicated to community-service initiatives, the Honors Program and residential themed communities.When you first enroll at St. Norbert College, you'll be assigned to one of our first-year student housing options. As you progress through your four years here, you'll have increasingly independent options, such as townhouses, apartments or college-owned houses. First-year housing options You'll live in a residence hall and have a full campus meal plan, so you're free to focus on settling in. Explore our halls listed below, and check out what to bring to put your stamp on your space. First-year residence halls are co-educational and you'll have a roommate (who you can often pair with in advance). Every hall has programming activities coordinated by resident assistants. There are opportunities to get involved in planning activities or be a Residence Hall Association rep, both great ways to get to know people. Some halls are popular with certain majors: education majors like Sensenbrenner because the Children's Center is right in the building, and Bergstrom is home to students in the Honors Program. Bergstrom Hall Overlooking the Fox River, this residence hall houses first-year students, including Honors Program participants. Learn more Madelaine/Lorraine Hall This hall features a large patio overlooking the Fox River. Men live in Madelaine, while women reside in Lorraine.

You can find information about our exhibitions and events on this website, on our Facebook page and on our news and events page. May I bring food and drink into the galleries? Most of the time, food and drink are allowed in the galleries. We do ask that you be careful and do not set food or drinks on gallery pedestals. There are occasional exhibitions when, due to contractual agreements, we can't allow food in the galleries. That is why you occasionally see a "no food and drink" sign when you visit. Is the work on exhibit for sale? We are not a sales gallery, but if you see something you like, please feel free to email the curator Michael Wartgow at michael.wartgow@snc.edu, so she can connect you with the artist. Do you accept artist proposals? Other than shows of work by our current students, we only exhibit work by professional artists with exhibition records. If you are a professional artist, we'd love to take a look at your work. We strongly prefer email submissions. Email an introduction and link to your website to curator Michael Wartgow at michael.wartgow@snc.edu.

St. Norbert College provides options for high school students looking to experience - and earn credit for - college courses prior to high school graduation. Early college credit program St. Norbert College is pleased to be part of the Early College Credit Program (formerly the Youth Options Program), which allows public high school students in Wisconsin to take college courses for high school credit and, potentially, college credit. According to Wisconsin legislation, the cost of college classes, books and course materials will be paid by the public high school student's school district if the high school does not offer a comparable course, or if the student has exhausted the course curriculum. All courses taken by Early College Credit Program students at St. Norbert College will be recorded and transcribed as postsecondary credit, and they will become part of a student's permanent college record. Credits earned through the Early College Credit Program are accepted by most other colleges and universities. However, St. Norbert College does not guarantee acceptance, since every institution is governed by its own policies. All students are expected to adhere to St. Norbert College's campus rules and regulations. These will be explained in greater detail at orientation. Benefits of the Early College Credit Program Gain a competitive edge over other college applicants Save on tuition, textbooks-in most cases, the school district pays for Early College Credit Program students' tuition, fees and textbooks. It may also reduce the amount of tuition paid when you are a full-time college student because, when you transfer courses, that means fewer courses you have to take in college. Earn up to 16 credits toward college before high school graduation Provides access to the St. Norbert College Mulva Library resources Improves your ability to do well on ACT and SAT tests For details about the St. Norbert Early College Credit Program, please contact us at: dualenrollment@snc.edu College Jumpstart College Jumpstart allows high school students to take St. Norbert College courses in their high school. The material for these courses is taught by their high school teachers on behalf of St. Norbert College.

She serves as an instructor, mentor and guide for pre-service teachers seeking license certification in grades K-12. Barnett uses her previous experience as a full-service teacher in various school districts in Wisconsin to model educational pedagogies that deviate from rote learning. Her goal is to cultivate culturally sensitive educators who are reflective practitioners. She believes that pre-service teachers who achieve these outcomes prior to graduation will not only "survive" their first years as full-service teachers, but also thrive as effective educators. Barnett's research interests focus on using content analysis to examine overall women's agency and the agency of women of color in social studies textbooks to promote more gender-balanced curriculums. She introduces pre-service teachers to content analysis and elements of her research to assist them in developing critical review skills of curriculum materials, regardless of content area. She is a strong believer in undergraduate research opportunities and has enjoyed many successful study collaborations with student researchers.

This effort focused on mission radiance, academic excellence, student success, operational excellence, and long-term sustainability. In response to demographic shifts and inflationary pressures, the College took immediate action to reduce its operating budget by nearly $12 million, in service of protecting our shared mission in perpetuity. The PTL initiative emphasizes living within our means while making strategic investments in integrated marketing and communication, enrollment management, new academic and athletic offerings, expanded student success initiatives, and piloting non-credit certificates. This approach, guided by collaboration between faculty, staff, and administration inspires confidence in the College's future. St. Norbert College is unwavering in its commitment to maintaining educational quality, deepening its Catholic identity, striving for operational excellence in all areas, and building financial strength. Given the need to reduce the budget by a minimum $7 million in recurring expenses to balance the FY26 budget, we are actively managing the next steps of the retrenchment process in an open and transparent manner consistent with the Faculty Handbook. In this way, the current financial challenges will be temporary. St. Norbert College will emerge even more mission-driven, student-centered, and financially sustainable. The St. Norbert College Board of Trustees as well as Abbot Dane Radecki of the St. Norbert Abbey are in alignment with the measures being taken by the administration to preserve the College's legacy. Community Email Updates Aug. 13, 2025 Dear St. Norbert College Community,As we look forward to a new fall semester with hope and eager anticipation, we rededicate ourselves to a core objective, which is to provide our students with a distinctive and superior educational experience, rooted in our sustaining traditions: Catholic, Norbertine, and liberal arts. We fulfill this purpose through an unwavering commitment to academic excellence.Students returning this fall will live, learn, and thrive with a purpose. They will grow and change in more ways than they can imagine, in an inclusive environment that nurtures their development in every respect. Our community is one in which all can flourish. It's built on collaboration, service, and thoughtful engagement with the world around us. We are dedicated to preparing students for a lifetime of success.As we prepare for a new academic year, we also face the sobering reality that this is a most challenging time for higher education. Since 2004, some 861 colleges and 9,499 campuses have closed, according to The Hechinger Report. Despite these trends and considerable challenges, we've made necessary changes to meet the demands of current and future students, while remaining financially sound and true to our mission and identity. To do this, we have had to make some difficult decisions involving both programs and personnel. While some majors no longer exist, we are redirecting existing and new resources to current and recently developed programs (for example, sports medicine, sports management, data analytics, supply chain management, healthcare administration, digital marketing (minor), and project management (minor)). Our goal is to continually enhance the student experience in distinctive and innovative ways.A commitment to academic quality is also at the heart of our identity and there are various ways to measure it. The most respected organizations and ranking bodies use a variety of metrics to assess academic quality. These metrics collectively provide a comprehensive and complete view of St. Norbert College's quality and academic strength, such as faculty with terminal degrees (e.g., Ph.D., MFA, JD), academic and professional experience, student-faculty ratios, graduation rates, and retention rates.Institutional resources are another metric of the quality of a St. Norbert College education. St. Norbert College stands out in national comparisons thanks in no small part to the continued generosity of alums and stakeholders.A recent shining example of SNC's superior resources is Donald & Patricia Schneider Family Hall. This state-of-the-art business complex, a testament to our commitment to academic excellence, will serve as the new home of The Donald J. Schneider School of Business & Economics and a hub for business education in northeast Wisconsin.The 45,000-square-foot multiuse facility is at the western end of the Claude Allouez Bridge in De Pere, with a terrace along the Fox River. It features reimagined classrooms and workspaces designed for contemporary learning; and space for executive education and conferencing opportunities.It will be home to our College's undergraduate and graduate business and economics programs, including data analytics and a new sports management program. It is part of our ongoing success in keeping St. Norbert College at the forefront of academia by providing top-level facilities to our current and future students.Beyond just business students, the new building's indoor and outdoor spaces will serve and benefit all of our campus and the local community.While there is no official threshold for what constitutes "high quality," national averages help establish standards. The Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System database provides benchmark statistics. For instance, in fall 2023, less than a third (32%) of faculty members in U.S. colleges held full-time tenured or tenure-track appointments. In the semester ahead, the percentage of tenured and tenure-track faculty at St. Norbert College far exceeds this benchmark. However, the use of tenure statistics alone is arguably a flawed benchmark of academic quality.At St. Norbert College, we respect and value everyone for their gifts and contributions to student engagement, learning, and success. Adjunct faculty play a vital and respected role in the academic life of a college, bringing professional expertise, real-world experience, and fresh perspectives that enrich the learning environment. While tenured and tenure-track faculty provide long-term stability and deep engagement in institutional life, adjunct professors can also serve as bridges between the academic and the broader world, offering students direct insight into current industry practices, emerging fields, and applied skills. Their contributions complement those of their full-time colleagues, helping to expand course offerings, meet specialized educational needs, and ensure students are prepared both intellectually and practically for their vocations.Other crucial metrics in which St. Norbert College has enviable success include financial resources available per student, our library and technological resources, alumni outcomes, employment rates, average starting and mid-career salaries of graduates, student satisfaction and engagement, campus life, and the quality of extracurricular and support services. Together with these existing resources, our new cutting-edge infrastructure and programming strategically position us for continued academic excellence and student flourishing.Sincerely,Anindo Choudhury, Ph.D.Interim Vice President/Chief Academic OfficerProfessor of Biology and Environmental Science July 31, 2025 Dear St. Norbert College Community,Our goal has always been, and will always be, to preserve and protect the core of what makes SNC special, which includes offering a uniquely transformative experience that prepares students not just for careers, but for lives of meaning, leadership, and service. Our Catholic, Norbertine, and liberal arts traditions have sustained the College for more than 125 years and continue to guide us, especially in seasons of change that require courage, faith, and hope in the future.During the past two years, we have invested in mission integration and other strategic priorities across the College, even as we had to make difficult financial decisions. These actions were necessary to ensure the College remains mission-driven, academically excellent, and financially stable. We can all be proud of how the SNC community has helped propel us forward.We closed last fiscal year with positive operating results and strengthened our financial position. With significant cost-saving efforts, program streamlining, and an institution-wide focus on efficiencies, we anticipate breaking even this fiscal year (FY26) as well -- despite predicted enrollment declines.This positive report marks the continuation of our remarkable progress during the past two years. After actual operating losses of approximately $4 million in FY22, $8 million in FY23, and a projected operating loss of nearly $6 million in FY24, we balanced the FY24 budget, achieved positive operating results in FY25, and anticipate a balanced FY26 budget. Our prudent stewardship and shared sacrifice have positioned the College to weather the multitude of challenges facing the higher education sector today.Colleges and universities across the country are navigating declining enrollment, increasing tuition discounts, loss of public confidence, and changing student interests and expectations. In response, we are taking proactive steps to sustain our mission by adding new academic offerings, diversifying revenue streams, and adapting staffing models. Yet, our core commitment to academic excellence, personal relationships, and strong mentorship remains the same. We are fortunate to have a percentage of talented tenured faculty that exceeds national averages and a robust pool of additional instructional staff that brings invaluable professional practice experiences to the College.No amount of aggregate data can effectively demonstrate the true measure of our success: the kind of graduates we educate and what they go on to accomplish. It is heartening to learn about the incredible SNC alumni changing the world for the better. We are privileged to be a part of their inspiring stories of resilience, perseverance, and achievement.Our students will soon return to campus, as they have for more than a century, embracing our ideals and flourishing in our unique educational environment. Nurtured by our practices of study, reflection, prayer, wellness, play, and action, they will grow, dream big, and prepare to impact their families and communities positively. The culture and spirit that define this special place are thriving -- thanks to the unwavering generosity and resilience of so many of you reading this update.I am grateful to all of you for your unwavering commitment to advancing our mission and serving our students. Thank you for all you do to nurture, preserve, and protect our sacred purpose for today's students and those to come.It is with profound gratitude that I share that our core commitments to excellence and value are once again being externally recognized with a series of impressive institutional and student outcomes. St. Norbert College was recognized as a U.S. News & World Report Top 100 National Liberal Arts College and Best Value School last fall and has once again been named a College of Distinction for the 2025-26 academic year. This prestigious national recognition honors us in several key areas:Private College of DistinctionCatholic College of DistinctionBusiness College of DistinctionEducation College of DistinctionTop College for Career ServicesBest College for International StudentsThese acknowledgments recognize the outstanding work that happens every day across our campus. From appreciative academic advising and career development to the deeply rooted Norbertine tradition of communio -- our community, grounded in faith and purpose, continues to inspire and prepare students for lives of significance and service.And if these accolades were not enough, we also know that Catholic higher education demonstrates lasting value academically, financially, and in helping to build purpose-driven lives. According to national data compiled by the Association of Catholic Colleges and Universities (ACCU), Catholic colleges report higher retention and graduation rates; lower default rates; and favorable return-on-investment at the 15-year post-graduation point as compared to other institutional counterparts (e.g., public institutions).No amount of aggregate data can effectively demonstrate the true measure of our success: the kind of graduates we educate and what they go on to accomplish. It is heartening to learn about the incredible SNC alumni changing the world for the better. We are privileged to be a part of their inspiring stories of resilience, perseverance, and achievement.Our students will soon return to campus, as they have for more than a century, embracing our ideals and flourishing in our unique educational environment. Nurtured by our practices of study, reflection, prayer, wellness, play, and action, they will grow, dream big, and prepare to impact their families and communities positively. The culture and spirit that define this special place are thriving -- thanks to the unwavering generosity and resilience of so many of you reading this update.I am grateful to all of you for your unwavering commitment to advancing our mission and serving our students. Thank you for all you do to nurture, preserve, and protect our sacred purpose for today's students and those to come.Sincerely,Laurie M. Joyner, Ph.D.President St. Norbert College March 13, 2025 Dear St. Norbert College Community,This week, our community demonstrated inspiring generosity for A Day to uKnight, giving more than $545,000 to support our mission and students while surpassing our performance in the past two years. Thank you for your continuing support."Preserving the St. Norbert Legacy: A Shared Promise of Stewardship" is about protecting the delivery of mission-focused, transformative educational experiences while maintaining affordability, and advancing accountability for student success. These strategic priorities, coupled with an emphasis on excellence, innovation, and communio are positioning our College for even greater success in its next century.At St. Norbert College, we are unwavering in helping students discover their passion and discern their purpose through access to the majors and high-impact educational experiences they want and a broad, liberal arts foundation of courses across disciplinary areas, including Theology, Philosophy, and History.The following majors will continue at St. Norbert College:AccountingAccounting CPAArt - Graphic DesignBiology - Organismal BiologyBiology - Biomedical SciencesBroadfield Social StudiesBusiness AdministrationFinanceManagementSupply ChainMarketingHealthcare AdministrationSports ManagementChemistry - BiochemistryCommunicationCommunication - MediaComputer ScienceComputer Science - Business InformationComputer Science - Game DevelopmentComputer Science - Graphic Design and ImplementationComputer Science - Secondary CertificationData AnalyticsEconomicsElementary Education (K-9)4-12 TeachingK-12 TeachingEducation - GeneralEnglishEnglish - Writing EmphasisEnglish - Education EmphasisEnvironmental ScienceHealth and Human Performance - Public HealthHealth and Human Performance - Sports MedicineHealth and Human Performance - Medical HumanitiesPre-Nursing (Transfer Program)MathematicsMathematics - Actuarial MathMathematics - TeachingMusic Performance - PianoMusic Performance - VocalMusic Performance - InstrumentalMusic Performance - Composition EmphasisMusic Liberal ArtsMusic EducationMusic - Pre-Music TherapyNatural SciencesPhilosophyPolitical SciencePsychologySociologyThe following minors will continue at St. Norbert College:Art - Graphic DesignBiologyBusiness AdministrationDigital MarketingProject ManagementSports ManagementChemistryClassical, Medieval, Renaissance StudiesCommunicationMedia StudiesComputer ScienceData AnalyticsEarth ScienceSustainabilityEconomicsLanguage ArtsEnglishHealth and Human Performance - Pre-NursingHealth and Human Performance - Pre-HealthHistoryLeadership StudiesMathematicsMilitary ScienceMusicPeace and JusticePhilosophyRoboticsPolitical SciencePsychologySociologySocial WorkSpanishWomen and Gender StudiesThe following certificates will continue at St. Norbert College:Arts ManagementLatinFrenchPre-LawSpanishThe following graduate programs will continue at St. Norbert College:Master of Business AdministrationMaster of Theological StudiesWe had to make tough decisions. And we made them together. Thank you to those who worked diligently on the academic program review process last year, especially faculty members on the Curriculum and Educational Policy Committee. I am also grateful to the full faculty for passing a motion to endorse a statement on the effects of retrenchment on the curriculum. These two governing bodies' work, feedback, and contributions were central to the final program decisions.At a special meeting of the Board of Trustees, the following majors and minors were approved for discontinuation, though courses in these areas will continue:Studio Art Major and Minor; Art Education MajorGeneral Chemistry MajorEarth Science - Geology Major; Earth Science Environmental Geology MajorFrench and Francophone Studies Major and MinorHistory MajorInternational Studies MajorTheoretical Math Major; Applied Math MajorPhysics Major and Minor; Engineering PhysicsSpanish MajorTheatre Studies Major and MinorTheology and Religious Studies Major and MinorSt. Norbert College will continue to offer courses across the humanities, arts, natural sciences, and social sciences. Further, all currently declared majors and minors will be able to complete their program of study, even if it is discontinued.Next week, Dr. Martin Conley will connect with each student in a program that has been discontinued, providing guidance and direction. Our College exceeds national norms regarding the percentage of tenured or tenure-track faculty members on campus. Our current situation requires us to reduce the number of faculty to align with the size of our student population more closely. Here are the final numbers:Total Faculty Positions: 10666 Retained21 Terminated (May 2025)6 Terminated (May 2026)13 VacantIn line with our Catholic and Norbertine values of caring for the whole person, we are committed to doing all we can to help all our faculty colleagues. Those directly impacted will receive support consistent with the provisions outlined in the Faculty Handbook (i.e., 10-month notice or the equivalent severance in lieu of notice; financial support for employer-paid portion of health insurance premiums; tuition waiver for employees or dependents who are sophomores, juniors, or seniors in high school; financial support for retraining up to $2,500; placement in another available position for which the faculty member is interested in serving and qualified; and access to the Employee Assistance Program).I am deeply grateful for the ongoing dialogue and feedback from so many of our alums, donors, staff, faculty, students, trustees, parents, Norbertines, and friends of the College. Your input and advocacy for our talented colleagues and educational programs have been heartwarming and helpful. But our work is not over. We need you more than ever. We must courageously embrace the tough decisions and sense of loss to preserve something truly precious.These decisions, though difficult, set us on a path to emerge stronger from this transitional period. Resilience is a testament to our Norbertine DNA, and the loyalty we have repeatedly witnessed during the past 18 months reflects the radical gratitude we all have for this remarkable community. With resilience and radical gratitude, we step into a promising future with steadfast faith, boundless hope, and absolute confidence.With appreciation for your support of our shared mission, Laurie M. Joyner, Ph.D.PresidentSt. Norbert College Feb. 28, 2025 Dear St. Norbert College Community,In response to the faculty vote, the Abbot and the Board Chair praised our results over the past year and a half. The Board provided the vision and mustered the courage to direct my administration to animate Catholic identity and Norbertine heritage across the College and to deliver balanced annual budgets.We have made tremendous progress in multiple areas but focusing solely on these two board-directed priorities, please see below:Mission IntegrationStrengthened relationships with the Diocese of Green Bay and the NorbertinesRe-established the Division of Mission and Heritage, which oversees the Office of Mission and Heritage, Campus Ministry, Killeen Chair of Theology and Philosophy, the Center for Norbertine Studies, Norman Miller Center, and Sturzl CenterImplemented a robust hiring for mission programDeveloped a Mission Integration Guide requiring all director-level employees to submit a written report on mission integration efforts and goalsInitiated an inspiring series of educational lectures, ongoing formation offerings, and new traditions, including the blessing of St. Norbert Medallions during ConvocationFinancial SustainabilityDiscovered, shared, and decisively addressed the under-reported budget issues to the Board and campus communityAdjusted the budget by nearly $12M during the past 18 months to avert a projected $18M budget deficit in FY27Achieved a balanced FY24 budget and projecting a balanced FY25 budget with significant administrative interventionPositioned to make considerable progress on an approximately $7M deficit in FY26Initiated athletics optimization and the RIZE partnership as growth strategies that are performing in line with expectationsOur purpose is clear: protecting the delivery of mission-focused, transformative educational experiences while maintaining affordability and accountability for student success."Preserving the St. Norbert Legacy: A Shared Promise of Stewardship" is about putting students first with an emphasis on excellence, innovation, and communio. It is about giving students greater access to majors they want and a broad, liberal arts foundation with courses spanning the humanities (including philosophy and theology), the arts, natural sciences, and social sciences. It is about helping the students on our campus today discover their passion and discern their purpose. And advancing this great College in a way that ensures we can do the same thing for their children and their children's children.Together, we will get through this challenging chapter in the history of the College. We are called to lead from where we are, to adapt, collaborate, and improve in ways that add even greater value to our students, colleagues, and community. We must deliver excellent educational experiences, control costs to maintain affordability, diversify revenue streams to support the core enterprise of teaching and learning, and demonstrate consistently superior student outcomes.To those faculty and others who may have reservations or concerns, I hear you. I understand that change is challenging and that ambiguity creates anxiety. I promise to continue to do what is necessary to preserve our core traditions: Catholic, Norbertine, and liberal arts. But I would much rather do it with you. There is an abundance of talent on campus, and we need your engagement and initiative to secure a future worthy of those we serve.Faculty, your role in curricular development and assessment is indispensable. Your expertise and dedication to working on an Academic Affairs Strategic Agenda rooted in the educational vision of the College is critical. In this service to the College, a quote attributed to St. Francis of Assisi comes to mind, "Start by doing what's necessary, then do what's possible, and suddenly you are doing the impossible."We are all invited to work toward a purpose greater than ourselves: to secure our sacred mission as the world's only Catholic, Norbertine College. This shared commitment is crucial to our collective success.You may count on me to continue demonstrating transparency and relying on our shared governance structures and processes. We will also proceed in good faith to adhere to Faculty Handbook protocols, ensuring that principles of fairness and respect are reflected in every decision.With gratitude for your faith in our shared mission, President JoynerSt. Norbert College Jan. 28, 2025 Dear St. Norbert College Community,As we welcome 2025, I am encouraged by the spirit of collaboration and commitment to the common good that defines our journey together.What we accomplished last year, with your active participation, is a source of confidence in our ability to manage the challenges ahead. Our collective efforts have resulted in required budget adjustments of nearly $12 million, a necessary step to ensure the stability and strength of the College."Preserving the St. Norbert Legacy: A Shared Promise of Stewardship" is built around institutional priorities of mission radiance, educational quality, student success, operational excellence, and financial sustainability. This approach has facilitated considerable progress in advancing our mission while addressing under-reported financial challenges in 2024.The retrenchment process, declared by the Board of Trustees last year, is an essential step to ensure academic excellence and the long-term financial strength of St. Norbert College. This process involves a strategic review of our programs and operations with a focus on preserving our core traditions: Catholic, Norbertine, and liberal arts. We are unwavering in our commitment to our mission which is why every student will still be required to take courses across a broad range of disciplines spanning the humanities, arts, natural sciences, and social sciences.Looking back on 2024, we can take pride in the thoughtful and deliberate steps taken to evolve and to ensure the College remains affordable and that our majors reflect the shifting interests and needs of students. I am grateful for the recommendations of our faculty governance groups to eliminate some low-enrolled programs. During this transitional period, SNC will remain student-centered, ensuring all current students are supported to finish their programs while we are adjusting to their preferences and the realities of today's workforce.I am also grateful for faculty leadership in introducing new, high-demand programs that will be made possible through innovative partnerships. This means that students will have greater access to majors they want while still experiencing the broad liberal arts foundation that is so important to help them discover their passion and discern their purpose.We balanced the FY24 budget and are projecting a balanced FY25 budget. Still, Business and Finance projects a nearly $7 million budget deficit in FY26. As a result, Dr. Valerie Martin Conley, the College's Vice President overseeing Academic Affairs, has been collaborating with deans and faculty governance groups to review academic programs and develop recommendations for potential program elimination as well as discuss the criteria to be used in potential faculty termination recommendations. Other areas of the College are also working together to make significant reductions as well.The path before us is difficult, but we are steadfast in continuing to collaborate with our faculty governance groups and adhering to the processes outlined in the Faculty Handbook. This includes a minimum 10-month notice or equivalent severance for our faculty colleagues. As a community, we have embraced these challenges together ensuring that fairness and respect are central to every decision we make. I understand that concerns and uncertainties arise, and I want to assure you that we are navigating this path with the utmost care and consideration.As part of our commitment to transparency, my leadership team and I continue to host town hall gatherings for faculty, staff, and students. These opportunities provide a platform for open dialogue and mutual understanding about the complex decisions facing our community. We are hosting town halls for faculty, staff, students, alums (virtual), and parents (virtual) this week.As we move forward, I ask for your continued engagement and trust. Together, we are strengthening the foundation of our institution, enabling St. Norbert College to thrive in a rapidly changing higher education space and world.Thank you for your dedication to our shared mission. Please help advance our efforts by:supporting the St. Norbert Fundendowing mission-critical positionsrecruiting prospective studentsoffering internship opportunities for students andhiring SNC graduatesWe are grateful for each one of you. It is your faith in our mission that inspires and sustains us.With gratitude and optimism, Laurie M. Joyner, Ph.D.PresidentSt. Norbert College Dec. 19, 2024 Dear St. Norbert College Community,As the year draws to a close and we prepare our hearts for the joy of Christmas, I want to share an update on our journey together--a journey grounded in faith and communio --to advance the sacred mission of St. Norbert College. This time of year invites us to reflect on our purpose, count our blessings, and review our progress as we work together to build a hopeful future.Our WhyAt SNC, we change students' lives as our dedicated faculty and staff spark their curiosity and accompany them as they discern their purpose. Personal relationships and a commitment to human flourishing, within the context of communio , set this campus apart in quite an extraordinary way. This educational environment is transformative by fueling excellence in academics, leadership, athletics, scholarship, and service. I mark these impressive accomplishments each week with personal notes of congratulations.I count the relational nature of our community as among our greatest blessings. This is evident in the culture of care, compassion, and interconnectedness that gets amplified in both good times and difficult moments. We celebrate each other's successes with genuine joy and happiness. In tough times, we navigate through the range of emotions associated with the Kubler-Ross stages of grief: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance emerging stronger and more united.Each of us processes change with varying levels of understanding and in our own time. For my part, I will continue to be as honest and transparent regarding how we arrived at our current financial circumstances, the progress we have made, and the distance we have left to travel. While many seem relieved that we are addressing the realities of this time directly, there are others who are fearful, angry, and/or anxious about the future. These are understandable emotions, and we assure any community member who is struggling or needs assistance that we are here to support you. Please take advantage of the SNC support services available.I am grateful to all the members of the community who have stepped up to lead from where they are by staying focused on serving students and each other while spreading kindness, joy, and love. I will never forget all of you who have reached out to me personally to offer your words of understanding, support, encouragement, and thanks.Institutional ContextGiven some misinformation that is circulating, I want to remind everyone how we got here and why our collective response to this moment in the history of the College is so critical to its future:Within weeks of my arrival, it became clear that the College was on track for three consecutive years of negative operating performance and that the FY24 deficit was significantly larger than anticipated.During the prior decade, the College's enrollment had been shrinking even as its discount rate was growing at a steady clip (meaning less net tuition and fee revenue to cover expenses).In fall 2022, the College's faculty numbers were at the highest level in more than a decade despite SNC educating nearly 350 fewer students.Net tuition and fee revenue is lower today than a decade ago due to the College graduating larger, lower-discounted classes and replacing them with multiple smaller, more highly discounted classes.SNC is tuition-dependent and approximately 60% of the College's operating expenses were personnel-related in FY24. This is why we cannot address current financial challenges without impacting our faculty and staff colleagues.The demographic cliff and increasingly competitive market are exacerbating the dynamics described as reflected in the size of recent first-year classes.Despite adjusting faculty numbers during the past year, the student-faculty ratio is virtually the same as it was a decade ago.Our ProgressOur commitment to the mission of St. Norbert College remains unwavering. We understand how unsettling the financial challenges have been to our community. I also empathize with the disruption that results from rapid change on campus. Yet, if we did not proceed in the way we have during the past 16 months, the walk-forward budget projected a nearly $20M deficit by FY27 in an increasingly inhospitable environment for higher education. To avoid this devastating prospect, we have acted decisively in reducing the budget by approximately $12M. This was extraordinarily difficult, but it was the right thing to do as we work to preserve the mission of this incredible College.We are advancing multiple strategies to contain costs and generate revenue while remaining attentive to mission, educational quality, student success, and operational excellence. We continue to invite faculty, our critical partners, to develop ways of diversifying: a) the student segments we serve (beyond traditional-aged, residential students); b) the programs we offer (beyond four-year degrees); and c) the way we deliver instruction (beyond face-to-face to include hybrid and online offerings).While we are addressing these significant annual operating budget challenges, I want to assure our community that St. Norbert College is working hard to adjust in order to sustain its historically sound financial position with substantial long-term assets and relatively low debt levels. This work is critical to ensuring SNC's long-term success and service to future generations. The hard decisions we have made are proactively strengthening our position to meet emerging challenges with resilience and purpose.Looking Forward: Spring 2025Dr. Valerie Martin Conley, Vice President and Senior Academic Officer, has been working all semester with faculty, academic deans, academic affairs staff, the Faculty Personnel Committee, the Curriculum and Educational Policy Committee, and the Senate as she finalizes recommendations for academic program elimination and faculty reductions. Next steps, slated to happen in January 2025 include:Finalizing potential academic program elimination recommendationsIdentifying potential individual faculty members for terminationCommunicating recommendations to potentially impacted facultyAllowing time for potentially impacted faculty to request a review by the Faculty Personnel CommitteePlease know, every decision is being viewed through the prism of fulfilling our mission and protecting our community members to the best of our ability.Our Commitments:To Students: All students in currently declared programs will be able to complete their degrees, honoring their paths and progress.To Faculty: Terminated faculty will receive a minimum 10-month notice period or equivalent severance pay.To Staff: Severance will also be offered to impacted staff as appropriate and in a manner consistent with institutional precedent.As of 12/13, our enrollment management and business offices are projecting a minimum spring 2025 shortfall of $700K. We will close this gap prior to May 31, 2025, to balance the current FY25 budget.Beyond this, we still face a significant challenge--a minimum $7 million budget reduction target to align revenues and expenses next fiscal year (i.e., FY26). This alignment will remain a top priority because "without margin, there is no mission."While these issues can be unsettling, we should remember that we have already reduced nearly twice this amount working together. We have significantly reduced expenses, developed new curricula, and implemented strategic initiatives. The progress we have made bolsters our confidence in our College community and its supporters' resilience as we complete the critical work ahead.As we continue the path toward long-term sustainability, we will develop the process for strategic planning in spring. We will remain steadfast in our commitment to Catholic identity, Norbertine heritage, and liberal learning while diversifying the student segments our College serves. In this way, we will position SNC to meet the needs of local, regional, and global communities while embracing innovation, excellence, and sustainability.As the only Catholic, Norbertine College in the world, our strength is in communio , a value guiding our shared work and calling us to unity and mutual support. The spirit of communio is present in each of you--students, faculty, staff, trustees, alums, donors, and friends--whose efforts and sacrifices are integral to sustaining the College during this time of transition.Together We Lead, Together We ServeSt. Norbert College is a great institution. Its current financial difficulties are similar to those playing out in higher education across the country. The quality and effectiveness of our response will be critical for the generations of students, faculty, and staff who follow us. I have no doubt this community will rise to the occasion and become a model for others as we demonstrate compassion, grace, resilience, and determination in the coming months. Building on our considerable assets, we will become an even more mission-driven, student-centered, and financially-sustainable College.As we move forward, we will continue to rely on the generosity of all to help strengthen sustainability, build institutional reputation, and preserve the exceptional educational experiences we provide. In this season of giving, I invite each of you to consider how you might make a difference. You can positively impact our mission by:supporting the St. Norbert Fundendowing mission-critical positionsrecruiting prospective studentsoffering internship opportunities for studentshiring SNC graduatesWe are so grateful for each one of you. It is your faith in our mission that inspires and sustains us. Together, we will continue to honor our traditions and adapt to meet the needs of our time with courage and resilience.Wishing you peace and blessings in this holy season,Laurie M. Joyner, Ph.D. President, St. Norbert College Dec. 6, 2024 Dear St. Norbert College Community,Since announcing our alignment with Dignitas Infinita regarding gender identity language in mid-September, our community has engaged in meaningful dialogue about how we live out our Catholic, Norbertine, and liberal arts identity, specifically within the context of the teachings of the Catholic Church. For more than 125 years, the respectful exchange of perspectives has been the foundation of St. Norbert College's resilience. However, achieving that type of community takes work and vigilance.While some community members have expressed concerns, we are perplexed by claims that there have not been opportunities for discussion. The forums for engagement attached below reflect our ongoing commitment to transparency and inclusion.It is essential to understand that this decision lies within the governance authority and responsibility of our Board of Trustees and Sponsor. Dialogue allows us to deepen understanding, but this decision reflects our Catholic and Norbertine identity, and is not subject to unilateral change by the administration.The Vatican document Dignitas Infinita was signed by Pope Francis and released in March of 2024 with the goal to offer clarifications on the use and abuse of the term "dignity" for the universal Church, which includes St. Norbert College. The decision was not made in response to any one issue. It puts us in conformity with our colleges' bylaws ([The operation of St. Norbert College] "shall be conducted within the context of the...teachings and doctrines of the Roman Catholic Church, and shall be in compliance with the objectives and philosophy of the Order of Canons Regular of Premontre..." bylaws I.2); it prepared us to receive the new 2024 Title IX regulations; it responded to internal policies that shifted the college's stance without proper approval; it allowed us to continue to serve and minister to people on campus as we always have; and it put us into communion with our local Bishop, Pope Francis, and the universal Church. Most importantly, Dignitas Infinita clarifies what human dignity means and looks like, and recognizing the dignity of every human being is a core aspect of St. Norbert College's Catholic tradition.St. Norbert College remains committed to radical hospitality. We will continue to create a welcoming environment for everyone in our community--LGBTQIA+ students, practicing Catholics, members of other faith traditions, those from diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds, and everyone who calls St. Norbert College home. It is also worth noting that we have received more positive feedback about this shift to align with Catholic teaching as we have received critical comments, underscoring the diversity of perspectives in our community.CorrectionsLike other SNC leaders, I received several emails yesterday from students. There has been some confusion regarding the November 21 st "Communio for All" event. On October 24 of this year, Dr. Karen Park, on behalf of the Theology and Religious Studies (THRS) faculty, invited me and any other Norbertine interested in participating, to a campus wide discussion of Dignitas Infinita and the associated changes on campus. While I could not accept the spot on the panel at that time, I offered the THRS discipline an opportunity to discuss the topic with me and/or a couple of Norbertines before engaging the topic in a campus-wide forum. I am confident Dr. Park would be willing to share the 10/28 and 10/29 email exchanges in which she declined my offer on behalf of the THRS faculty. During these exchanges with the THRS faculty, I was unaware of any student participation or organizers for the event.On November 15 of this year, a sophomore student--an impressive young leader with an email signature that listed her as VP, President, and Representative of prestigious student organizations--invited me to serve on a "Communio for All" panel on November 21. As we sent emails back and forth, I learned that students would be involved on the panel. When I said I had extended an invitation to the event organizers, some thought I was referring to a student leader. I was not referring to a student or a student group. I was not aware that students would be on this panel until three days before the event took take place.In trying to understand who was hosting the "Communio for All" event, we looked at the registry for the event space: that night, that time, that topic, and that room was listed as a THRS faculty event. The primary contact for the faculty group was Dr. Craig Ford. Dr. Ford is a faculty leader and theologian.Dr. Craig Ford is not a student. And the THRS faculty are not a student group.I'm sorry that the THRS discipline didn't accept our invitation. The Gospel and the Rule of St. Augustine teach us that a private discussion ought to happen first when a problem emerges. Honest, open debate among community members with conflicting views is how we build community and change the world around us.Those desiring communio must be vigilant. It is easy and tempting to know better, to look down on others on the bedrock of confidence in one's correctness. Communio would guide us to trust and share who we truly are with the community, and to accept others regardless of the similarities or opposition of our beliefs. Misrepresenting and hiding things are inconsistent with communio.In the quote NBC 26 shared, I referenced some dishonesty in some of the criticism and comments regarding the college offering opportunities for dialogue. It was startling to hear people who participated in events on the attached list testify that the school had done less. The promotion of lies and distortions, and what could be the manipulation of students, are inconsistent with our values at SNC. We remain committed to our shared values and actions that affirm them.Transparency is about honesty, trust, wisdom, and respect.Office hours continue every semester to facilitate communio and the ongoing dialogue and support that nurtures it. I'll happily speak with students, faculty, and staff who have questions or seek dialogue.These efforts reaffirm our dedication to fostering inclusion and belonging for everyone at St. Norbert College. Our commitment to respect the dignity of every person exemplifies the spirit of communio that binds us together.Fr. Matthew Dougherty, O. Praem.Special Assistant to the President for Mission Integration-For reference:Since announcing alignment with Dignitas Infinita in September 2024, the institution has held several forums to discuss this change with students, faculty and staff.

Nov. 21, 2024 Dear St. Norbert College Community,As we approach Thanksgiving, I am deeply grateful for each of you. Your unwavering dedication and steadfast commitment to the College are the cornerstone of our success. Thanks to you, we remain a community rooted in faith, excellence, and service.In this season of reflection, I reiterate our unwavering commitment to radical transparency regarding the challenges facing the College. We face a changing higher education landscape necessitating heart-wrenching choices. These decisions will be made following extensive consultation and input through our shared governance structure and beyond. In this spirit of collaboration, we act in good faith with the best interests of our mission and community at heart.As we navigate declining enrollment trends, we must align revenues and expenses. This requires a significant budget adjustment of $7 million for the upcoming fiscal year. This work is essential to ensure a sustainable future for the College.We are combining program elimination and operational changes with new potential revenue sources. In the past few weeks, we launched our first suite of non-credit, online certificates to meet the evolving needs of working professionals and students. This initiative aligns with our mission by fostering lifelong learning, contributing to social mobility, and actualizing the Norbertine value of stabilitas loci by supporting broader community needs.These affordable, flexible, online educational options are offered in high-demand areas like healthcare and technology. These certificates are an initial response to today's dynamic job market and early indicators are affirming interest in such offerings.Thanksgiving is more than a time of gratitude -- it is a call to give back. Our Catholic, Norbertine heritage calls us to live out our faith through acts of service, generosity, and compassion. In the spirit of communio , let us remember that every gift, every act of service, and every expression of kindness strengthens our community.In this season of giving, some have asked about the best way to help the College.Please consider a year-end gift to the College.Please consider naming and endowing a mission-critical position at the College. Such a commitment provides relief to the annual operating budget, which is the College's most pressing need, while growing the endowment.Please help recruit a student to attend the College.Every contribution matters and every person makes a difference. With your continued support, we will overcome short-term challenges and create a brighter future for the College.As we prepare to gather with loved ones, let us reflect on the positive impact our inspiring campus and local community has had on each of us. For my part, I am grateful forthe warmth of our people and the beauty of four seasonsthe tradition of excellence reflected in the arts, humanities, natural sciences, and social sciencesbeloved traditions like Mass of the Holy Spirit and the Knights on Broadway Christmas showthe occasional Brandy Old Fashioned with alums or comfort food in the nostalgic surroundings of a supper club andthe team spirit surrounding the Green and Gold of the Green Knights and the Green Bay Packers!I wish you and yours a most joyful and blessed Thanksgiving.Laurie M. Joyner, Ph.D.PresidentSt. Norbert College Oct. 22, 2024 I write today to share updates following the Board of Trustees meeting held on Oct. 11, including significant items considered and actions taken.Executive Summaries and Institutional DashboardsThe Board reviewed Executive Summaries from President Cabinet members highlighting priorities, challenges, and achievements across the College as well as the following dashboards tracking institutional performance over time:Ten-Year Dashboard inclusive of critical enrollment and financial performance indicatorsFinancial Dashboard tracking long-term debt, cash, endowment, and investment metricsAdvancement Ten-Year Giving History DashboardMeeting ScheduleThe Board began its new one-day meeting schedule with its revised committeestructure to better address cross-divisional priorities and issues. The new committees include Finance/Organizational Sustainability; Academic & Student Experience; Audit, Risk & Information Technology; Governance; and Mission & Heritage.Some key points from the materials and reports provided:Mission and Heritage has a robust month of lectures and other activities scheduled to celebrate the College's three core traditions: Catholic, Norbertine, and Liberal Arts.The Norbertine Video Project is almost complete and will be part of faculty and staff onboarding and student orientation.Despite efforts to increase undergraduate student headcount through new offerings, improved marketing, expanded direct admission initiatives, enhanced recruitment efforts, adjusted financial aid strategy, streamlined transfer review processes, improved website design, and greater cross-divisional collaboration, the College is projecting undergraduate enrollment declines through 2028. This is primarily a function of shifting demographics and reduced demand.SNC has been graduating larger classes with lower discount rates and replacing them with smaller, more highly discounted classes. Declining undergraduate enrollment that is more highly discounted can only be sustained by aligning revenues and expenses. Budget projections for FY26 necessitate adjusting the operating budget by an additional $7M across the College.The Board accepted the 2023-24 Audit Report and approved an extension of the 2023 Tax Form 990 filing date.The Support What Matters campaign concluded with a remarkable achievement, raising more than $128M, surpassing our $125M goal. The SNC Hockey Locker Room initiative also exceeded expectations, raising nearly $1.7M, surpassing the $1.5M goal. These successes are a testament to our dedicated and generous alums and an inspiration for future endeavors.Academic Affairs will deliver $4M+ in budget reduction recommendations by December 2024. Faculty provided recommendations for program elimination, reducing the number of courses in the core curriculum, restructuring, and reducing personnel and operating budgets. Please be assured that students will be able to complete their majors, even if their particular program is eliminated.Undergraduate enrollment as of census date (9/6/24) was 1,662, with 1,464 residents in housing this year.We are pleased to report that our first-to-second year retention has improved to 83.7%. This positive trend is a testament to our collective efforts and the supportive environment we strive to create for our students, providing us with optimism for the future.Graduate enrollment is 62, primarily part-time students, across three programs (MBA = 44; MTS = 12; and MLS = 6).Fall 2025 recruitment goal is 440 (FY Domestic 403, Transfer 30, and International 7).Undergraduate headcount is projected to decrease to 1,446 in FY28, necessitating continued budget adjustments. This decline in enrollment will impact our revenue and will require strategic budget adjustments to ensure the financial sustainability of the College.Full Board SessionTrustees participated in a Mission Reflection led by Fr. Johnathan Turba, O. Praem., reviewing the core Norbertine value of actio.Each Trustee also received a copy of a 7-page letter followed by signature pages titled, "A Letter of Concern and Care for St. Norbert College" from SNC alumni and friends of Catholic and liberal arts higher education.The Board of Trustees unanimously approved the following:Approval of undergraduate tuition rate increase of 2.5% and room and board rate increase of 2.5%.Approval of endowment policy spending distribution of 4.5%.The Board elected Billy Falk as Secretary of the Board of Trustees.The Board voted to approve five former members for trustee emeriti distinction.The Board approved extending an invitation to a potential May 2025 commencement speaker.The Board discussed differences between Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and internal financial reporting. The management team will provide a reconciliation at least annually to the Board.Senior Leadership Updates Luyan Li, Ph.D., will join us in about a week as Vice President for Business and Finance/Chief Financial Officer. She will have about a week of overlap with Michael Guns to assist with her transition. The search for Vice President for College Advancement has been extended. While we continue to search for our next Vice President, we are working with The Registry to identify an experienced Interim to serve during the next several months. --- ### Resources Alumni Source: https://snc.edu/helpful-info/alumni/resources-alumni Career resources for alumni No matter when you graduated from SNC, our career counselors are here to help alumni of all class years navigate your career paths with confidence.

Norbert of Xanten (c. 1080-1134) was an ascetic, legendary peacemaker and church reformer who founded the Norbertine order in the 12th century. Emulating Christ's first disciples, he emphasized communal living embraced poverty, shared goods, service to the poor, and daily celebration of the Eucharist. Life in the nobility Norbert of Xanten did not begin his career as a reformer. In fact, it was quite the opposite, for he seemed bent on being a clerical opportunist of the type that was actually eroding the credibility and effectiveness of the church. Through the influence of his family he obtained a financial subsidy from the parish church at Xanten, a town near the Netherlands-German border, when he accepted a position as a subdeacon. His only task was to chant the Divine Office at the church, but he apparently paid someone a small fee to take his place in the choir, because he gained an appointment as a chaplain-religious counselor to the emperor, Henry V, in Cologne.The salaries from the Xanten fund and the royal treasury were enough to equip him to live in the pleasurable style of the nobility of the time. He was not, however, a man devoid of idealism and moral sensitivity. The seeds of his moral conversion were planted during a lengthy stay in Rome with Henry V in which he witnessed the breakdown of negotiations over the lay investiture of clergy. He saw the pope standing firm on the principle that it was wrong for a secular power to control the appointment of bishops both because it gave the impression that the origin of sacramental ministry comes from a secular source and not from God, and, secondly, because it contributed to the corruption of the episcopacy. At the same time, he noted the emperor would not yield and was willing to keep the pope under house arrest until the pope changed his mind. Conversion and early ministry Norbert found himself sympathetic to the pope and experiencing the dawn of a moral awakening. This development was accentuated a year later when he was nearly killed by a bolt of lightning during a storm. He decided to withdraw from imperial service and go into seclusion at the Abbey of Siegburg to permit himself a thorough self-evaluation. After three years of self-scrutiny and prayer, he concluded that he should seek ordination to the priesthood and commit himself to Jesus and the ideals of the Gospel.Norbert, a changed man, returned to the community at Xanten, determined to live as a principled priest and anxious to engage in active ministry in the area. The easy-going clergymen of Xanten disliked the "new" Norbert and were annoyed by his enthusiasm as well as by the implied reproach that his life cast on theirs. Realizing that he was out of place with these men, he decided to leave them and embark on a life of evangelical poverty. He divested himself of all his possessions and successfully sought permission from the pope to become a missionary preacher.For the next several years he roamed through western Germany, Belgium and France, preaching repentance, peace and moral reform. The darker side of feudalism gave him much to preach about. The absence of an effective police force or national militia allowed for continuous brutality, brawls and feuds. The ordinary citizen faced the unpredictable violence of armed knights. Those Iron Men, clad in their suits of armor, often plundered whatever they wished, with little resistance from the vast majority of helpless people. Norbert preached peace, mercy and consideration to a world that was hardly a Camelot or the serene kingdom of an Ivanhoe.In settlement after settlement, he would find cases of armed combat and hatred. In addition, he encountered a demoralized clergy, lonely, often practicing concubinage and feeling that the official church cared little about them. He had plenty of work to do when hearing out the complaints of the serfs, who were little more than slaves caught in a hopeless situation of bondage.At the same time, Norbert came in touch with reforms. In Paris, he would have witnessed the Canons of St. Victor - that is, parish clergy who adopted the ascetic ideals of William of Champagne.At Clairvaux and Citeaux, he would have beheld the Cistercian reforms of the world of the monks. He noted that their churches had plain wooden crosses and walls bare of pictures or stained glass, that their diet was vegetarian, and that they were allowed only six hours of sleep a night but were required to work at least seven hours a day in manual labor, mostly farm work. He also became acquainted with the Cistercian administrative system that created an international federation of monasteries with a fair amount of centralized power, though local houses had a certain amount of independence. These reforms, written up in their "Charter of Charity," would affect him significantly in his own future work. Forming a community In 1120, he came to the city of Laon at the request of Bishop Bartholomew, where part of his assignment included the spiritual renewal of the Canons of St. Martin's Church. Norbert failed to change them. Bartholomew was convinced that Norbert had a great deal more to offer and that he should stay in the area and establish a community of priests very much in line with his own personal ideals. After a considerable number of conversations, Norbert agreed and negotiations were begun to create a community of canons regular.Historian Barbara Tuchman notes in her study "A Distant Mirror" that the Duke De Coucy, who was the overlord of the area of Soissons, awarded a land grant to Norbert in the valley of Premontre for the purpose of establishing an abbey there. Norbert and a few companions cleared out some of the land for a settlement and rebuilt the ruined chapel of John the Baptist.On Christmas day, 1121, Norbert inaugurated the Canons Regular of Premontre, an order also called Premonstratensians - or, more simply, Norbertines.They swore to seek Christ by means of community living, poverty, obedience, celibacy and a dedication to the active priestly ministry. Norbert held before them the dream of the first Christians after Pentecost whose community life was characterized by the power of the Holy Spirit and a desire to be of service to others.For a rule of life, Norbert chose the Rule of St. Augustine, as was common among communities of clergy. In addition, he adapted some of the customs of the Cistercians. Even more of these would be brought in later by Norbert's successor, Abbot Hugh of Fosse. It was his idea that his clergy would reflect the reforms for ministry instituted by Pope Gregory VII and have the reformation spirit he had witnessed among the Cistercians. In effect, he produced a community that would be somewhat monastic as far as house ministry. The whole idea was that his active priest needed an ascetic and contemplative haven, and that was the purpose of the abbey discipline. Norbert as archbishop In terms of numbers and growth, his plan was hugely successful. Within a few generations there were Norbertine abbeys all over northern Europe. Within eight years, Norbert found himself nominated to be the Archbishop of Magdeburg. Like Augustine at Hippo, Norbert turned his residence into a Norbertine monastery and so carried to east Europe the ideals he instituted at Premontre. Always ready to develop his ideas further, he softened the monastic aspect of the lives of his men at Magdeburg so they might have a more dynamic sense of outreach and commitment to active ministry. Experience had shown him that monastic practices tended to pull the men away from external ministry and withdraw them too much from the world.Even though Norbert was a man of deep prayer and spirituality, he was a person aggressively interested in the needs of the people. Almost certainly, his many years as a missionary accounted for his action-oriented mindset and therefore his ability to note the boundaries of inwardness that his abbeys observed. The administrative model of an international federation of abbeys did much to sustain these communities of canons and assure many of them centuries of survival as centers of service to the people and the parishes.Norbert died in 1134, leaving behind him an example of ministry-minded priests living in community - a model that was to become a norm about a century later. Reflection Through founding the Premonstratensian Order, Norbert reproduced the lifestyle of the apostolic community of the early church. In his theological outlook, he saw the Holy Spirit as the originating power of the group. Common prayer and celebration of the Eucharist was to be the sustaining dynamic of the community. Selfless sharing and reaching out with love was the moral power that should surge from the members. He dreamed of the emergence of a primary community whose members had the capacity to live together with a shared value system and shared beliefs. The first sentence of their rule said, "Be of one mind and heart in God." Thus they were to have the ability to model and generate other communities based on divine love and human sharing.By emphasizing the primacy of communal love in Premonstratensian existence, Norbert sparked all over Europe the possibilities for parish and other ministerial clergy to live in a soul-satisfying community context. --- ### Catholic Identity Statement Source: https://snc.edu/mission/our-values/catholic-identity-statement Richly rooted and growing stronger: The St. Norbert College Catholic identity statement Introduction The Norbertines of St. Norbert Abbey in De Pere, Wis., developed and continue to guide many ministries in the local community and beyond. St. Norbert College, because of its scope and enduring impact, is one of the abbey's primary apostolates, its largest ministerial endeavor. The mission of the college is rooted in communio and three core traditions - Catholic, Norbertine and liberal arts. In this brief statement, the college and abbey communities seek to highlight and affirm the importance of the Catholic tradition, and reflect on the ways in which this tradition both grounds and shapes the college experience. This statement articulates a response to the question, "What does it mean that St. Norbert College is a Catholic institution of higher education?" In answering this question, the document reflects on the way the Catholic tradition invites us to see the world, on Catholic identity and the academic life, and, ultimately, on the way St. Norbert College's religious identity invites all its members to live. Catholic identity and the academic life The Catholic tradition is grounded in the life, teaching, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. It affirms that God's fullness is communicated in the message and person of Jesus. Catholic communities strive to bring this message and reality to all corners of the world. The Catholic tradition, drawing on the church's universal mission, affirms the work of God in all dimensions of existence.The Catholic tradition values intellectual curiosity and academic excellence, asking all to join in the search for the true, the good and the beautiful. Carefully attending to the teaching of the church's magisterium, Catholic colleges and universities uphold the importance of academic freedom. Grounded in the love of learning, the desire for God, and the pursuit of truth and goodness, the Catholic intellectual tradition welcomes all views into the conversation, appreciating the contributions of diverse backgrounds, commitments and experiences.St. Norbert College is committed to providing a liberal arts education that supports the proper autonomy and integration of faith and reason, science and religion, contemplation and action. When the riches of higher education - including timeless texts, the arts, the sciences and technology - are studied as part of the Catholic Intellectual Tradition, the meaning of human life is examined not only within empirical methods, but also in relationship to the transcendent. Learning is not pursued for individual gain, but is oriented toward service and informed by systematic reflection on our responsibility for each other and the life of the world. Catholic worldwide: a way of seeing St. Norbert College seeks to cultivate a Catholic way of looking at reality for all who are formed by the college experience. The college succeeds in its effort to be a Catholic institution to the extent that, while respecting the varied faith commitments and spiritual paths of the members of our community, this Catholic sensibility becomes an integral part of our ethos and culture. Inspired by the example of Jesus Christ, the community witnesses the dignity of all persons and affirms the sacredness of God's creation. The Catholic worldview acknowledges the gravity of sin and failing, but remains determinedly hopeful, viewing as good those things which promote human flourishing and help us recognize our communio with one another in God. This way of seeing calls all members of the community to a rich and responsible way of being in the world. A holy life: a way of being in the world Since the Catholic tradition affirms an understanding of God as a communio of persons in relationship, it rejects narcissistic individualism or narrow self-interest and lifts up the vision and values needed to live in community with generosity and compassion. Thus, the Catholic tradition calls us to be servants in the world and witnesses to the love God shows us.Catholic identity is inseparable from contemplative practice, the celebration of common prayer and the sacraments. Inspired by Norbert of Xanten's powerful reputation as a preacher and his deep devotion to the Eucharist, our campus celebrations of Eucharist are marked by strong preaching, compelling beauty and clear grounding in contemplative prayer. Recognizing that the experience of Eucharist sends God's people out to bring good news to the world, our campus is called by the example of Norbert to the work of reconciliation and peace-building. Just as Norbert brought people together across differences, we celebrate the opportunity for our college community to come together, enriched by diverse faith commitments and spiritual paths, to preach joy and hope to a hurting world.Through celebration of Eucharist and other sacraments, working to promote peace and reconciliation, and joining together in other expressions of Catholic, ecumenical and inter-religious prayer or dialogue, members of our college community are called to be of one mind and heart on the way to God, as described in the Rule of Augustine. Holiness as a call to common life Rooted in the Catholic understanding of God as a communio of Father, Son and Holy Spirit, St. Norbert College promotes the belief that God's vision for us is as a community in which all are received with radical hospitality and in which each member is attentive to the needs of others. This shapes the environment of the college and calls us to a solidarity with one another that opens out into solidarity with the entire human family, along with care for the world that is our common home. Holiness as a call to social justice Rooted in the Gospel message of Christ Jesus, St. Norbert College provides an educational environment that shapes students who not only become effective workers and impactful leaders but also agents of justice and proponents of peace. Classroom and co-curricular endeavors are linked to a commitment to work locally and globally: Local engagement flows from the Norbertine charism of stability, and global awareness reflects the nature of the universal church. Together, these dual foci support our work toward a more just world. Megan Salentine '26 "The Catholic presence on campus was huge for me.

College grants help offset the cost of school for students who might not otherwise be able to attend due to financial constraints. St. Norbert College Grant This institutionally funded grant is awarded to full-time undergraduate degree-seeking students with financial need who don't receive enough grant assistance from other sources. Students must submit a FAFSA each year in order to be considered, and the amount of money awarded is determined by the student's financial need. Amount varies each year depending on need.

Topics include evaluation of performance through financial-statement analysis, capital-budgeting analysis, working capital management and dividend policy. Prerequisites: BUAD 650 BUAD 670 Marketing Management (2 credits)This course takes a strategic and analytical approach to the study of consumers, products and markets.

Work with simulations makes participants aware of the financial impact of marketing strategies. BUAD 685 Strategic Management Capstone (4 credits)Managers make significant strategic decisions as part of their jobs as they seek to grow a business. Such decisions may include developing and introducing a new product or process, acquiring another firm, responding to a competitor or to a crisis, forming a strategic alliance, or entering a new market. These decisions are complex and must take all business functions (finance, marketing, management and operations) into consideration. The strategic management process considers the basic direction and goals of an organization, the environment (social, political, technological, economic and global factors), industry and market structure, and organizational resources and capabilities. This course serves as a capstone experience and emphasizes the development and successful implementation of strategy in different types of firms across industries. Case analyses, live business projects and a business simulation are used as learning vehicles.

In addition, in a society where the workforce is increasingly dispersed, diverse, and mobile, traditional command and control styles of leadership no longer have the impact that is needed for long-term organizational success. In this course we will examine the philosophy of Humanistic Leadership; a people-oriented, values driven approach to leadership that centers on enhanced self-awareness, honors human dignity, calls for increased collaboration and trust among stakeholders, and encourages systems thinking to support personal and organizational success. Topics that will be explored include: Emotional Intelligence, Authentic Confidence, Adaptive Leadership, personal mission and vision, communication styles and listening.

This course offers tools to engage employees in complex conversations around identity, while offering practical tools for creating equitable and inclusive workplaces where a diverse range of professionals can thrive. BUAD 615 Entrepreneurship (2 credits)This course develops passionate, motivated entrepreneurs. Entrepreneurship is a way of thinking and acting; it is a practice, integrated with theory, that can be learned and applied in any organizational setting. This course helps participants grow already-formed ideas, and those without ideas learn how to identify opportunities and act on them. All participants learn to create and build their ventures and discover how business ideas fit into the broader society. This course is based on the theme "act, learn, build," therefore, class sessions are active learning experiences. Participants acquire an understanding of the entrepreneurial method, a practice of opportunity recognition, resource gathering and team building, all driven by business methodologies in idea generation, feasibility analysis and business plan creation. This course helps participants re-evaluate their own views of entrepreneurship within the framework of entrepreneurial thinking and putting this mindset into action. BUAD 616 Collaborative Innovation and Design (2 credits)This course explores the concept of design thinking, a proven, systematic approach for developing solutions using creative problem-solving techniques. Starting with a foundation of understanding unmet customer needs and then applying a structured framework for innovation, organizations substantially enhance the chances for new products and services success. Participants learn the basic concepts that drive design thinking and people-centric design as well as how to translate unmet needs into ideas and prototypes, analyze the economics of innovation, and apply informed decision making. BUAD 630 Data Visualization (2 credits)In an ever-changing world where business leaders are beginning to rely more and more on data for decision-making, the role of data presentation and visualization are becoming increasingly important. This course helps participants understand how humans process data and information. Participants also will gain a better understanding of data literacy and learn to effectively design visualizations to convey truth and meaning using data-based evidence. This course prepares participants to construct high-quality visualizations via the understanding of different types of data relationships, such as distributions, correlations, time, parts of a whole, spatial mapping and ranking. This is a practical, hands-on course; participants use Tableau and R to construct high-quality visualizations and dashboards to better inform business leaders in the managerial decision-making process. BUAD 637 Leading Change (2 credits)This course prepares innovative leaders for putting fresh ideas to work and to do so responsibly. It examines the skills and tools required to be a transformational leader. Participants explore how successful leaders influence groups, understand behavior, and lead people toward the achievement and realization of the organizational vision. Prerequisite: BUAD 631 BUAD 640 Business Communication (2 credits)This course is designed to develop the participant's communication skills by applying principles of communication science and the psychology of persuasion in a contemporary business setting. Crafting messages that are not only effective, but also ethical, is of foremost concern in this course. Communication strategies with which leaders can appeal to audiences both internal and external to their organization will be explored. A variety of message forms will be considered and rehearsed, including oral presentations, traditional written discourse, and digital messaging. BUAD 641 Project Management (2 credits)The dynamic business climate, insufficient employee/champion engagement, and less than stellar project success rate has necessitated updated Project Management practices. This course will offer transformational Project Management concepts essential for today's fast-paced project economy. We will navigate the necessary soft skills of high-level PM leadership, insights into valuable communication practices, proper identification of all stakeholders, and beneficial decision-making skillsets. Each graduate candidate will be responsible for developing their own project to learn first-hand about the foundational project framework to increase the likelihood of project success. BUAD 671 Integrated Marketing Promotions (2 credits)This course offers a hands-on approach to business models and proposals. Firms enrolled in the Green Bay Packers Protege-Mentor Program grant access to participants in return for advice. This advice will be an integration of formal marketing concepts participants have already been exposed to in BUAD 670. Through a combination of class discussion, individual and group work, participants establish an understanding of how a particular firm faced with challenges needs to adapt in order to succeed. This course's overriding perspective is entrepreneurial and marketing-centric, with participants applying core management concepts from the marketing field, including value-proposition development, target marketing assessment and strategic response. The course is specifically designed for participants who have a keen interest in strategic formulation and in being a contributing member on a consulting team. The primary work output is a group-developed marketing plan, with week-to-week efforts (both individual and group-based) forming the foundation of the final report. Prerequisite: BUAD 670 BUAD 684 Negotiation (2 credits)This course focuses on the concepts, theories and practices of negotiation. Class activities are experiential in nature, and participants are required to be both reflective and analytical in a diverse set of contexts. Topics covered include negotiation from the context of developing one's style, power, persuasion, and how diverse contexts such as culture and gender impact negotiation. BUAD 686 Nonprofit Management (2 credits)This course focuses on the fundamental differences between managing a mission-driven enterprise compared to a profit-driven company. The course begins by exploring the sector - examining what makes nonprofits unique, the history of the nonprofit sector, the theoretical underpinnings for its existence, and its scope and impact on society. In addition, the course will then examine governance and accountability of nonprofit boards, funding challenges, program evaluation, the role of nonprofits in policymaking, and the unique aspects of nonprofit finance. Throughout, students will examine real world examples and review the theories and practices that apply to them. Students will leave the course with a greater awareness of the role of nonprofits in society as well as the essential skills in leading a nonprofit. BUAD 689 Special Topics (2 credits)This course will cover a variety of timely or specialized business-related topics. As a result, course content varies.

Through reading and conversation, this course will provide students and opportunity to think deeply about the nature of happiness, the conditions that are necessary for happiness to flourish, and the responsibility of leaders to create those conditions. BUAD 689 Special Topics: Media for Organization Leaders (2 credits) This course is designed to help leaders understand the role of media in their organizational operations. Topics will include: media relations, social media in the workplace, the use of video in constructing a narrative, and crisis communications. Students will develop a better understanding of how media works and how an organization can leverage media to its advantage. BUAD 689 Special Topics: Small Group Communication (2 credits)This course is designed to facilitate learning of the theory and practice of small group communication in personal and professional contexts. Students will explore group and team topics such as such as norms, roles, cohesion, groupthink, conflict management, computer-mediated group communication, listening/feedback, and decision-making/problem-solving. The course provides an analytical framework to help students more efficiently analyze, understand, and facilitate small group experiences.

He maintains a teaching philosophy that embraces dialogue and views classroom interaction as a path to personal and professional growth. Endemic to this view is that business relationships do not develop in a vacuum. A person must be sensitive to the individuals and environments involved and affected by actions. This holistic view lends itself to social scientific, philosophical and ethical queries. This is where the integration of a liberal arts pursuit matches well with the development of a student's knowledge, critical reasoning and conscientious citizenship. Harris is a member of professional associations including the American Marketing Association, Society for Consumer Psychology, Association of Consumer Research and Society for Case Research. He has been an invited Fulbright Scholar judge. He also was voted a "Best Feature of the MBA Program" during his tenure at the renowned Nova School of Business & Economics (Lisbon, Portugal). Harris holds a board position on the Milwaukee branch of the Green Bay Packers Mentor-Protege Program, a business-mentoring initiative that helps minority-, women- and veteran-owned businesses achieve success. He also holds an Expert in Residence post for that same organization. Additionally, he is a member of The Automobile Gallery's marketing committee. The organization serves a mission to fulfill both cultural and educational pursuits that enhance northeastern Wisconsin's landscape. Interests Harris' marketing research has looked at similar questions through different perspectives. These questions overall involve notions concerning exchange of value and the development of market-based relationships. Most recently, he has been developing business case inquires, as these methodological pursuits produce accessible and engaging student study. Publications Harris has published work in Journal of Marketing, Journal of Critical Incidents, Advances in Consumer Research, Journal of Consumer Marketing and Journal of Product & Brand Management.

Pahl serves as faculty advisor for Discoveries International, Inc. (a student-operated business), the Untouchables women's organization and the SNC Curling Club. Pahl's recreational pursuits are seasonal: curling in the fall and winter, and golfing and biking in the spring and summer. Fortunately, she gets to enjoy these pastimes with her husband, and even with her adult children from time to time. Interests Pahl's scholarship interests connect well to her teaching. Since she uses a case-intensive approach to teaching, increasingly she has focused on developing business case studies that involve strategic, operational and entrepreneurial decision-making. Her case studies have appeared in The CASE Journal and The Journal of Critical Incidents. Effective management also calls for ethical decision-making, so in order to better understand how students perceive ethical issues in relation to business situations, Pahl collaborated with two of her St. Norbert College colleagues to investigate that question. This resulted in a study that was published in The International Journal of Religion and Spirituality in Society (2020). Pahl was also part of a team that developed a strategic decision-making software tool that is described in the paper entitled "Meta-SWOT: Introducing a New Strategic Planning Tool" (The Journal of Business Strategy, 2012). The software tool has proven to be useful to many organizations as they formulate and prepare to implement their strategic plans. Education B.S. Minnesota State University-Mankato M.S.

Located in De Pere, Wis., the college was originally established to educate young men for the priesthood. Seeing a broader need for higher education in northeastern Wisconsin, Pennings soon added a commerce program for lay students.After World War II, enrollment grew rapidly, and in 1952 the college became coeducational. Pennings remained president until his retirement in 1955. His founding vision -- to nurture the personal, moral and intellectual development of each student -- continues to guide the college today.The college's second president, the Rev. Dennis Burke, led campus expansion and anticipated growth in student enrollment. In 1968, Dr. Robert Christin became the third president and implemented a new academic structure, introducing both the course system and a divisional model.In 1973, Neil Webb, a former faculty member and vice president, became president. He brought strong financial leadership and established the college's first major endowment.Dr. Thomas Manion took office in 1983 and led St. Norbert College to national recognition. During his tenure, enrollment grew to 2,000 students, academic programs expanded and several buildings were renovated or constructed, including the Bemis International Center.In 2000, Dr. William Hynes became the sixth president. He championed academic reform, oversaw the creation of the Mulva Library and renewed the college's commitment to environmental sustainability.Thomas Kunkel succeeded Hynes in 2008 as the seventh president. Under his leadership, enrollment and the endowment grew, Michels Commons was renovated, and the Gehl-Mulva Science Center opened in partnership with the Medical College of Wisconsin. Students also celebrated the long-awaited addition of a campus pool, part of the Mulva Family Fitness and Sports Center.In 2017, Dr. Brian Bruess, a 1990 graduate of St. Norbert College, became its eighth president and the first layperson to serve in the role.Following Bruess' departure from the college, Thomas Kunkel returned as interim president from 2022 to 2023.Dr. Laurie M. Joyner became the ninth president of St. Norbert College in July 2023, making her the first female leader to hold the position. A seasoned leader in Catholic higher education, she previously served as president of St. Xavier University in Chicago and Wittenberg University in Ohio. Joyner has also held senior leadership and faculty roles at Rollins College and Loyola University New Orleans, where she earned her undergraduate degree.

Are you interested in a career where you can defend justice and advocate for clients? Want to learn to think on your feet? SNC will teach you how to think like a lawyer, and help you to take your next steps toward practicing law. Our pre-law program emphasizes strong written and oral communication skills as well as critical thinking -- you'll learn how to craft convincing arguments, and you'll leave SNC with strong research skills. Primary Major Credential N/A Offered AsCertificate Academic paths Students are admitted into law school from almost every academic discipline, so major in what you love. Law schools look for students with a high level of reading and writing ability, strong communication skills, and the ability to conduct research -- all skills that you'll develop through your coursework at SNC. Pre-law partnership program with Marquette University St. Norbert College students can get on the fast track for a law degree by taking advantage of the 3+3 academic partnership between St. Norbert and Marquette Law School. The academic program will allow St. Norbert undergraduate students to enroll at Marquette Law School after completing only three years of education (99 credits) at St. Norbert. Traditionally, earning a bachelor's degree followed by a law degree would take a student seven years. St. Norbert 3+3 students will be able to apply to Marquette University during their junior year. Those who are admitted will move directly into Marquette's law program. Once they have successfully completed all requirements during their first year of law school at Marquette, they will be able to transfer 29 credits back to St. Norbert to achieve a baccalaureate degree at St. Norbert College. Students will then have two additional years of law school at Marquette before receiving their juris doctor degree from Marquette Law School, all in six total years - saving students a full year of college tuition. RequirementsAdmission to the 3+3 law school partnership will be limited to those who have earned a cumulative high school grade-point average (GPA) of 3.75. Students must be admitted to the partnership program by the conclusion of their first year at St. Norbert. ApplicationsApplications will be reviewed on a rolling basis, but for first consideration, the priority deadline is May 1. Submit your application.

Renning, Lewis & Lacy s.c. --- ### Satisfactory Academic Progress Source: https://snc.edu/financial-aid/satisfactory-academic-progress Satisfactory academic progress In order to receive and maintain financial assistance - scholarships, grants, waivers, exchanges, loans and employment - you're required to progress toward completion of your course of study. Your Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) is monitored annually at the end of the spring term, after spring grades are posted. Aid applications received after this timeframe are still subject to evaluation as part of award processing. Satisfactory Academic Progress is measured in three ways: Qualitative - Cumulative grade point average Quantitative (PACE) - Total of all credit-hours attempted versus credit-hours earned measured cumulatively throughout your enrollment at St. Norbert College (includes transfer credit-hours) Maximum timeframe - The maximum time to complete a program Qualitative standard You're expected to maintain a minimum cumulative grade point average. Undergraduate students must maintain a 2.0 and Graduate students must maintain a 3.0 at the end of each spring term. If you have less than the noted cumulative grade point average, you'll be placed on financial aid suspension. Quantitative standard (PACE) PACE is measured annually at the end of the spring term and is required to ensure you're completing your program of study within the maximum time frame. PACE is calculated by dividing cumulative credits successfully completed by cumulative credits attempted. You must have an overall completion rate of 67 percent. If you have less than a 67 percent completion rate, you'll be placed on financial aid suspension. The office of financial aid uses standard rounding procedures where a 66.5 percent would be rounded to 67 percent. The following factors are considered when evaluating your quantitative and qualitative standards: Withdrawals, incompletes and failed or unsuccessful courses are considered as attempted credits, but not earned. The college cannot exclude from SAP courses in which a student remained past the add/drop period and earned a grade of "W" or its equivalent. All "W" courses are counted as attempted credits, but not earned. A "W" course does not impact a student's cumulative GPA. Transfer credits, including those received through approved study abroad or exchange agreements, do not count in the calculation of the cumulative grade point average, but they are included in the calculation of both attempted and earned credits. AP/IB/CLEP or retro credits count toward earned but not attempted credits. They do not impact a student's cumulative GPA. A satisfactory grade in a satisfactory/unsatisfactory course is counted in both attempted and earned. An unsatisfactory grade in a satisfactory course is counted as only attempted and not earned. Audited courses are not considered as courses attempted or earned. Credit can only be earned once for a course. Repeat courses will affect your cumulative grade point average, regardless of a higher or lower grade on the repeat. Only the most recent attempt is included in the GPA calculation. All repeated coursework is counted as attempted, but only a successful grade (D or higher) will be included as earned credits. (Please note: Title IV funds may only be used to pay for one repeat of a previously passed course). Remedial courses are included in the calculation of both attempted and earned credits. Incomplete grades count as attempted, but not earned. However, they do not factor into the cumulative GPA until the grade is posted. Maximum time frame You won't be eligible to receive financial aid if you attempt more than 150 percent of normal credits required for a degree. A student would also be ineligible for financial aid via maximum timeframe if it becomes mathematically impossible for the student to complete the program within 150 percent. At SNC, this means that an undergraduate student in a degree program requiring 128 credits for graduation will be eligible for financial aid for the first 192 credits attempted. A graduate student in a degree program requiring 32 credits for graduation will be eligible for financial aid for the first 48 credits attempted. All attempted credits are counted, including transfer courses. Graduate programs requiring 39 credits for graduation will be eligible for financial aid for the first 59 credits attempted. Financial aid suspension If you fail to meet the minimum Satisfactory Academic Progress requirements, you'll be placed on financial aid suspension. While you're on financial aid suspension, you're NOT eligible to receive federal, state, or institutional financial aid, but you may still attend St. Norbert College, unless you've been dismissed. SAP notificaton Notification will be provided by sending an email to your SNC email address. This notification will include instructions for appealing the loss of financial aid, as well as an Appeal Form. Financial aid reinstatement In order for financial aid to be reinstated after financial aid suspension, you must meet the academic standard required without the use of financial aid or submit a written appeal. Appeal process You may appeal the loss of financial aid in writing if extraordinary circumstances interfered with your ability to meet Satisfactory Academic Progress standards. These include, but are not limited to: Medical emergency Severe health issues Death or serious illness of an immediate family member or close friend Significant trauma in a student's life that impaired a student's emotional and/or physical health Short-term hardship Difficulties balancing work, extracurricular activities or family responsibilities Other significant extraordinary circumstances The appeal should explain why you failed to meet standards and what has changed that will allow you to make them in the future. Supporting documentation, such as statements from academic advisers, professors, professional health care workers, etc., may also be requested. The appeal will be reviewed by the office of financial aid. If the appeal is accepted, you'll be placed on financial aid probation for one term or put on an academic plan. Please note appeals will be accepted until 7 days prior to the semester deadline to withdraw from classes and earn a "W" grade. Appeals will not be accepted after that date. We recommend submitting an appeal before the first day of classes. Approval of appeals is not guaranteed. Financial aid probation If you successfully appeal financial aid suspension, you'll be placed on financial aid probation for one term. During this one term of financial aid probation, you'll be eligible to receive financial aid. However, during this probationary period, you must regain Satisfactory Academic Progress standards. Failure to meet Satisfactory Academic Progress will result in financial aid suspension. Academic plan Students with a successful appeal may be placed on an academic plan if it's not possible to regain Satisfactory Academic Progress in one term. An academic plan may vary in length, but will be evaluated each term to ensure you're meeting the requirements of the established plan. If you fail to meet the requirements of the plan, you'll be placed on financial aid suspension.

We offer registration/advising and summer orientation sessions. Advising and Orientation Overview Registration/advising (virtual): Meet with an advisor and discuss your interests and goals starting in May through July. SNC advisors will share course options with you and help you register for classes, all from home. Summer orientation (in person): Join us on campus for a daylong experience in June that will give you information about campus resources, tours of residence halls and the opportunity to meet several of your new classmates. Registration will open February 1. There will be sessions for both students and family members. We encourage you to bring a family member as there is one set of sessions for students and another for family members. Student and family sessions follow different schedules. You'll receive printed copies when you arrive for orientation. Advising, Registration and Placement Testing Overview Testing and Advisement Survey All incoming students will need to complete placement testing for writing, math, and modern languages. Most placement tests usually take 20-30 minutes to complete and are completed remotely. Please note that AP tests and transfer credit from other colleges are posted after students meet with an advisor for registration, so placement test information can help students and advisors to best determine the appropriate course selection. Placement tests must be completed one week in advance of a student's advisement and registration appointment. This ensures that the placements are reviewed and scores have been entered into the system. Incoming students also need to complete a short advisement survey to help your summer advisor get to know a little about you and your academic interests. Students must complete the advisement survey to sign up for a new student advisement and registration appointment. Check your email for the link to the survey, or email advise@snc.edu to receive it. Honor Code As an incoming student at St. Norbert College, you agree to uphold a high level of academic integrity. All students are asked to abide by the St. Norbert College Honor Code while completing all placement tests. You cannot use any additional materials to complete any of the placement tests. Consulting a print or online source (e.g., dictionary) or a speaker of the language for which you are testing, using a smartphone or calculator, or otherwise getting assistance while you are taking placement tests, is not allowed. These acts are a violation of the SNC Honor Code. If you are found to have violated the Honor Code, your score(s) will be disqualified and you will undergo an honor code conference with our honor code facilitator. Academic Accommodations for Placement Tests In keeping with the St. Norbert College mission which calls us to help students develop their full potential, and in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the college provides reasonable modifications and necessary accommodations to students with disabilities. Students become eligible for services when they disclose and provide recent documentation of a disability to the Office of Academic Success, Support and Accessibility (OASSA). Academic Accommodations are tailored to a student's need on a case-by-case basis. Please submit this documentation to accessibility@snc.edu or fax to 920-403-4021. Some forms of documentation we accept are: Individualized Education Plans (IEP's)/504 Plans with diagnosis and recommended accommodations. A signed, written diagnosis letter (on professional letterhead) by an appropriate licensed professional with recommended accommodations. The names and scores of psychological and psycho-educational instruments used in arriving at diagnosis, if appropriate. The College may request additional documentation even when some supporting documentation has been provided. Activate Your SNC Network and Email Accounts Official correspondence from the college will switch to your SNC email now that you have deposited. To activate your account, you'll need your nine-digit SNC ID number that is included on your emailed checklist. Please contact your admission counselor if you need any help locating it. Navigate to snc.edu/pw and click "Activate a new account." Enter your nine-digit St. Norbert College ID number.

If you have any questions on this step, contact servicedesk@snc.edu or 920-403-4040. Enrollment deposit link - snc.edu/go/deposit Language Modern Languages Placement Test Options Second-language competency is part of the core curriculum at St. Norbert College. This module is fulfilled by demonstrating basic competence in two languages. Proficiency IN EACH LANGUAGE must be demonstrated by the end of the third year by using one of the following options: Native foreign language speakers can demonstrate second language competency via graduation from an English-only high school, secondary school or via acceptable TOEFL or IELTS scores. (Note: an English translation is required if the transcript is not written in English) Earning a grade of "C" or better in a second-semester language course at St. Norbert College or another post-secondary school. Scoring at a skill level equivalent to having completed a second-semester collegiate language course on a course exemption exam available at St. Norbert College. Achieving the Seal of Biliteracy. Demonstrating language competence by test: Earning a score of 3 or better on an Advanced Placement language or literature exam in Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese or Spanish. Earning a score of 5 or better on an International Baccalaureate Language A2 HL exam. Tests for languages other than those available at St. Norbert can be obtained at the Brigham Young University Foreign Language Achievement Testing Service (FLATS) or through an ACTFL Oral Proficiency Interview via Language Testing International (LTI), with the student bearing responsibility for any fees. English proficiency may be demonstrated by TOEFL (min. scores: pbt 550 or ibt 79) or IELTS (min. score: 6.5 composite). All incoming first-year students are required to take the language competency test at least one week prior to their advisement and registration appointment. Students with no high school second language experience are not required to take the placement test and will automatically be placed at the 101 level. Students who took a language in high school for which there is an SNC placement test are also expected to take that test, even if they plan on studying a different language at SNC. Please note, even if a student has completed an AP or prior college course, it is important to complete the modern language placement as this information is not always available when the student has their advisement and registration appointment. After students take the language placement test, they may choose ONE of the following two options: Option 1: The student enrolls in the language course in which he/she placed based on his/her score on the language placement test. Option 2: The student may take an exemption exam. Successful completion of the exemption exam with a score of 73% or better satisfies St. Norbert College's second language requirement. The Spanish and French exemption exams will be administered in person and only the first Tuesday of the fall and spring semester during the 2:00 to 3:30pm time slot in which no classes are held. MLL faculty will proctor these exemption tests. Note: There are no retakes or alternate dates for exemption exams. Students interested in this option should contact Meghan Walsh (meghan.walsh@snc.edu), Executive Director of the Academic Advising and Career Development Center. Students seeking to demonstrate competency in a language other than Chinese, French, German, Italian, Spanish, and Russian should contact advise@snc.edu, for an appropriate referral for assistance in placement. Native foreign language speakers can demonstrate second language competency via graduation from an English-only secondary school or via acceptable TOEFL or IELTS scores. Students are not allowed to retake the language placement test. Students should complete the language placement by the end of their first year at St. Norbert College. Honor Code Reminder: Students are not allowed to use any digital or physical resources while taking any Modern Language Placement Test. Taking the test in a fashion not intended (e.g. using a dictionary, textbook, grammar aids, online resource, cellphone, etc.) is a violation of the SNC Honor Code. Language Placement Test Options Chinese, French, German, Italian, Russian, and Spanish Students can complete the Chinese, French, German, Italian Russian, or Spanish Language Placement Test via Emmersion. Students will need their SNC ID and should use their SNC email address when taking a placement via Emmersion. Please allow at least 30 minutes to take the placement test. Link to the Chinese, French, German, Italian, Russian and Spanish Placement tests here. Latin Students will meet individually with a professor for the Latin Language Placement. Please contact Dr. Michael Holstead (michael.holstead@snc.edu) for additional information Math All students are required to complete the math placement test. Students will first complete a short survey, directing them to the appropriate math placement test (algebra or calculus) based on their prior math coursework. This information will allow our math department to make the appropriate math course recommendation. Please note, even if a student has completed an AP or prior college course, it is important to complete the math placement as this information is not always available when the student has their advisement and registration appointment. Calculators are not allowed for the test and using a calculator would be a violation of the SNC Honor Code. Please follow this Link to complete the math placement test. Once you have logged into Canvas, select the Math Placement Test. Additional Math Placement Instructions Writing As part of the new student checklist, students will watch a brief informative video, complete a short writing self-placement survey, and submit a writing sample. This information will be reviewed by our Writing Across the Curriculum director, and the student will be placed either into IDIS 100 College Writing (a more developmental writing course to help students enhance their writing skills and a prerequisite for a Writing Intensive course) or allow a student to go directly into a Writing Intensive [WI] course (required for graduation as part of the Core Curriculum). The writing placement process is conducted throught the advisement survey. If you missed it at the end of the survey, please follow this link to complete it. Advising Appointments Advising and Registration The next step is selecting the day and time for your one hour academic advising and registration appointment. These appointments will begin in May and run through the summer. During this time, you will meet virtually with an academic advisor who will help you select and register for classes for your first semester at SNC. Watch your SNC email account for a link to sign up for your appointment. You will receive a confirmation email once your appointment is secured. Preparing for your Appointment There are a few things you will need to do to prepare for this appointment. First, you will want to review the How to Register for Classes PowerPoint so you are familiar with how to register via KnightLine. Please note, you won't be able to register for classes until the day of your appointment. You will also want to review the Core Curriculum. This will help you review your core requirements and discuss with your summer advisor what courses you are most interested in taking this fall. You will also want to review major and minor information to get an idea of what classes you can expect to take your first year. If you are unsure of what you would like to major in, reviewing majors can help you decide what you would like to explore. You can also set up time to meet with Career Development to complete major exploration this fall. Orientation Program You are encouraged to bring one family member with you to summer orientation. Orientation sessions focus on tips for college parents, payment plans, housing contracts and meal plans. Your guest can tour the residence halls, too.

The college cherishes its roots in the 900-year history of a religious order founded to further the kingdom of God while examining, and sometimes challenging, the accepted values and customs of its time. In their relationship with the only Norbertine institution of higher education in the world, those who pass through this college find themselves uniquely called to both represent and further the order's tradition of life lived in community for the good of all.The community of Jesus' disciples had at its heart an ideal: that all people should live in peace, holding all they have as gifts from their Creator, and sharing those gifts so that no one might live in need or be distracted from praising the Giver of every good gift. The disciples shared a common life, a communio, guided by the teaching and direction of the apostles. We dare to say that this ideal of social existence is God's plan for all humanity. (Acts 2:42-47 and 4:32)The great thinker and shepherd of God's flock, St. Augustine of Hippo (354-430), set before his friends the apostolic life as the model for their living together in community. Their goal, and ultimately that of all peoples, was and is to seek God alone together in a unity of charity he described as being of one mind and heart. Augustine put into words directives that, when followed authentically, foster the virtues necessary for living the apostolic life. That text is the Rule of Augustine.In the course of history, the ideal of the apostolic life was taken up by that charismatic man of God, Norbert of Xanten (ca. 1080-1134), under whose patronage this college seeks to carry on Augustine's model of life in common. Norbert's unique experience of conversion gave birth in his time to a community, the Order of Premontre or Norbertines. Through the organizational genius of Norbert's disciple Hugh of Fosse, the order has preserved and carried forward Norbert's mission of reconciliation and peace. The nine-centuries-long tradition of the order, in harmony with the college's Catholic and liberal arts traditions, identifies us to ourselves, to the church and to society. We express and shape our Norbertine identity by: A rootedness in the Roman Catholic faith and the traditions of the Order of Premontre.A living relationship with the Order of Premontre through the sponsorship of St. Norbert Abbey.Mutual care for one another, embodying Christ's example of loving service (actio).The formation and sustainment of deep and often lifelong friendships.A collaborative way of life, grounded in the value of communio and expressed in teaching and learning, in study and research, and in the generous sharing of our resources.A joyful generosity in offering and giving of ourselves to the local community (stabilitas and localitas) and to the wider world by sharing our gifts with those who look to us in their need.A commitment to seek to be ministers of peace and reconciliation in the spirit of St. Norbert.The practice of hospitality in the spirit of the Gospel and the Rule of St. Augustine, and in the urging of St. Norbert. We are the inheritors of a rich tradition, a small but vital corporate member of the Body of Christ in service to the human family in our times, committed to using our study, research and other resources to preserving the earth -- our common home; to be ministers of peace and reconciliation; and, ultimately, to be Creation's voice in praising the God who has rooted us in this place where we are called to teach by that example that is the test of authentic teaching.We live and work together as we have for 900 years engaged continually in the transformative work of conversion, of seeking after God. As in the Acts of the Apostles, in the life of Augustine's monasteries and in the history of the order, no individual or community ever arrives at a perfect living out of the apostolic life, but faith-filled perseverance carries us forward in humility and trust in God's mercy.Toward that end, we accept Augustine's directive that we see his Rule as a kind of mirror, which we hold up to ourselves and one another in order to discern where we fall short and where we have reason to give God thanks for the reception of those graces which are particular to our identity as inheritors of Norbertine tradition.(Updated and approved by St. Norbert Abbey in its June Chapter, 2022.)

Father Bernard Pennings began teaching Latin declensions to 15-year-old Francis Van Dyke in the rectory kitchen in October 1898. Three more students joined the class several days later. The first graduating class in 1904 consisted of eight students, seven from the commercial department and one from the classics department.From those humble but auspicious beginnings has arisen a modern liberal arts college with the full array of academic programs, from classics to commerce, philosophy to physics, theology to biology. Today's liberal arts and sciences curriculum emphasizes critical thinking, social justice, and international awareness. A St. Norbert College student encounters opportunities for vocational discernment, career preparedness, and the acquisition of knowledge and skills necessary for fulfilling lives and responsible citizenship. The liberal arts tradition joins with our Catholic and Norbertine heritage to form a cohesive institutional identity that serves our students' interests, supports our community values, and inspires an active concern for the world at large. The liberal arts tradition The idea of the Liberal Arts begins with the Latin verb liberate, to make free. The particular goal of a liberal arts education is to help students become and remain free: the essential purpose of our nation and our institutions. Etymologically a liberal arts education-- liberalis educare--means to "draw out" or "lead" others and ourselves to freedom through lifelong learning. The liberal arts tradition inspires in its students a love of learning and provides the skills requisite to carry their learning beyond the confines of the College environment to extend over the course of a lifetime. In today's fast-paced world of change, an education that emphasizes lifelong learning is critical in that the specific skills taught today may find themselves antiquated tomorrow, but the ability to continually teach oneself is a skill that will never find itself out of date.The Liberal Arts tradition inspires an educational regimen firmly grounded on a strong moral and ethical foundation. Our Catholic and Norbertine mission upholds human dignity, encourages the search for truth through dialogue, and promotes a Scripture-based vision of justice in a welcoming yet rigorous intellectual environment. Our conception of the liberal arts is broadly inclusive, comprising the Humanities, the Natural Sciences, the Social Sciences--including those disciplines that undergird the curricula in the Schneider School of Business and Economics--and the Visual and Performing Arts. An education with range and depth The concept of the artes liberales goes back to Plato, Isocrates, and Aristotle through the idea of enkuklios paideia, encyclopedic learning or "learning in a circle," trying to encompass and comprehend as much of the world as one can.A liberal arts education leads us to an enlightened appreciation for the physical, natural, and human worlds. As we marvel at each new discovery, our grounding in inductive reasoning, deductive logic, and the scientific method empowers us to critically evaluate what we learn. We also observe the power of these methodologies in elucidating the patterns of human behavior, enterprise, and culture. In all contexts, we appreciate the value of a well designed empirical study. As the collective body of human knowledge increases, the liberal arts tradition calls on us to look for the broader implications of each discovery and consider the ethical deployment of each emergent technology. Our appreciation of diverse cultures further primes us to anticipate the effects of innovation on communities other than our own. Our liberal arts training equips us to view each new discovery not with bewilderment, but with wisdom, humility and awe. Sharing this tradition with our students helps them achieve both a fundamental and an expansive understanding of the complex process of living in and contributing to our world.The St. Norbert conception of the liberal arts experience extends beyond the classroom. The cultivation of mind and spirit and character involves our interactions with our students, and their interactions among themselves at a level which integrates their studies with the skills essential to community life. St. Norbert College is devoted to the Norbertine spirit of communio, for learning is done best with and for others, united in the common enterprise of serving humankind.A devoted study of the liberal arts serves to train the mind, enliven the spirit, and cultivate our ethical sensibilities. In tandem with the practical and technical arts such as medicine, law, commerce, or digital technologies, it trains students for success in a profession but also inspires them to be thoughtful and caring citizens. The practical may also liberate, in that it leads to ways to make a living and contribute to one's community. Liberal is practical, and practical should be liberal. All disciplines that support freedom of inquiry, citizenship, and development of the whole person contribute to and participate in the liberal arts.The spirit of liberal learning flourishes at St. Norbert College, inspiring us as teachers, scholars, and practitioners of our various crafts. It is with firm conviction that we embrace the liberal arts tradition as the foundation stone of a free and just society and confident in its power to inspire each new generation of students with the values of free inquiry, a love of learning, and responsible citizenship.

Course catalog Academic calendar Support Overview SNC's military science ROTC program has commissioned both active-duty and reserve-component officers for our nation's defense -- since 1936. Our graduates enter the service with a well-developed sense of duty, and the best attributes of strong leaders: integrity, courage, loyalty, respect, selfless service and honorWant to participate in extensive leadership development initiatives, acquire advanced military skills and receive thorough career training? SNC will expose you to diverse learning environments, including the field as well as the classroom, in order to prepare you for your career. Primary Major Credential NA Offered AsMinor Request information Academic paths During your first two years at SNC, you'll progress through basic military science course material. This is the time for you to gauge if military service is a good fit, without a service commitment. You'll enter SNC's professional program in your third year, when you take your advanced military science courses and work toward a minor. This is also when you officially commit to military service, and where you'll develop the skills of an officer. If you're playing catch-up, we have a plan! SNC offers an accelerated two-year program that includes a five-week basic camp during the summer between your sophomore and junior years, followed by a 32-day advanced camp to help build your skills. After successful completion, you're ready to jump into advanced coursework during your junior year. St. Norbert College's Green Knight Co. is a member of the Fox Valley Battalion, headquartered at the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh. It includes companies from Marian University, Ripon College, the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay and the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh. Basic course (pre-professional) requirements The basic course is offered to only first-year students and sophomores. However, any student may register for any of the lower-division military science courses. No military commitment is required and students may withdraw at any time before the end of the second year. Additionally, no cost is incurred for course registration. The necessary textbooks and materials are furnished without cost to the student. The courses introduce students to military fundamentals, including rank and leadership structures. Students attend class and lab for two hours every week and may participate in a wide variety of extracurricular activities ranging from social events to rigorous (confidence-building) physical activities. Advanced course (professional) requirements Satisfactory performance in the basic course, demonstrated leadership potential and recommendations from program instructors make an individual eligible to enter the professional program. The emphasis here is on applied leadership skills expected of all officers. Instruction includes the introduction of military skills that must be developed prior to attending a Basic Officer Leadership Course (BOLC). They are fundamental to the military profession and serve as the basis for all future branch-directed specialty training. Instruction in professional-knowledge subjects is also provided and students will continue to learn about what the U.S. Army does, associated tasks and leadership philosophy.Cadets in the advanced course receive uniforms, necessary military-science textbooks, salary during an advanced camp and an allowance up to $4,000 each year.A 32-day advanced camp is held during the summer between the junior and senior years. This course permits students to put into practice the leadership principles and theories they have acquired in the classroom. They are also exposed to more military skills. Successful completion of the course is required prior to commissioning. Military science minor If students continue with military science studies into their junior and senior years, they are able to earn a minor in the program. Junior-level courses focus on small unit tactics and those at the senior level further develop leadership skills and prepare students for their future roles as commissioned officers. Students who complete the program and enter the Army as a Second Lieutenant will also receive a minor in military science. Professional development and extracurricular activities An essential portion of the military science program is encouraging cadets to participate in extracurricular activities that personally and professionally develop the individual. These activities range from volunteer work and charity participation, to the traditional Military Ball and the formal Military Dining-In, to intramural sports, color guards, leader's reaction courses and backpacking exercises. Cadets routinely participate in the Cadet Professional Development Training Program (CPDT). The CPDT supplements campus training with practical leader-development experiences. The CPDT program is comprised of Practical Field Training and Cadet Advanced Individual Training.Practical Field Training includes basic airborne, air assault, jungle-warfare orientation, northern-warfare orientation and master fitness trainer. Students successfully completing the 32-day advanced camp are eligible to participate in Cadet Troop Leader Training (CTLT). The CTLT program sends cadets to train as junior leaders with active Army units in the continental United States, Europe, Korea, Alaska or Hawaii. The CTLT program places cadets in charge of up to 40 soldiers and requires them to perform as leaders. This extremely popular option provides an exciting and rewarding leadership-development and learning experience. Two-year program Army ROTC offers two- and three-year scholarships that are awarded competitively to students who are already enrolled in college. Students who attend the basic camp under the two-year program may also apply for two-year scholarships prior to camp.

The college cherishes its roots in the 900-year history of a religious order founded to further the kingdom of God while examining, and sometimes challenging, the accepted values and customs of its time. In their relationship with the only Norbertine institution of higher education in the world, those who pass through this college find themselves uniquely called to both represent and further the order's tradition of life lived in community for the good of all.The community of Jesus' disciples had at its heart an ideal: that all people should live in peace, holding all they have as gifts from their Creator, and sharing those gifts so that no one might live in need or be distracted from praising the Giver of every good gift. The disciples shared a common life, a communio, guided by the teaching and direction of the apostles. We dare to say that this ideal of social existence is God's plan for all humanity. (Acts 2:42-47 and 4:32)The great thinker and shepherd of God's flock, St. Augustine of Hippo (354-430), set before his friends the apostolic life as the model for their living together in community. Their goal, and ultimately that of all peoples, was and is to seek God alone together in a unity of charity he described as being of one mind and heart. Augustine put into words directives that, when followed authentically, foster the virtues necessary for living the apostolic life. That text is the Rule of Augustine.In the course of history, the ideal of the apostolic life was taken up by that charismatic man of God, Norbert of Xanten (ca. 1080-1134), under whose patronage this college seeks to carry on Augustine's model of life in common. Norbert's unique experience of conversion gave birth in his time to a community, the Order of Premontre or Norbertines. Through the organizational genius of Norbert's disciple Hugh of Fosse, the order has preserved and carried forward Norbert's mission of reconciliation and peace. The nine-centuries-long tradition of the order, in harmony with the college's Catholic and liberal arts traditions, identifies us to ourselves, to the church and to society. We express and shape our Norbertine identity by: A rootedness in the Roman Catholic faith and the traditions of the Order of Premontre.A living relationship with the Order of Premontre through the sponsorship of St. Norbert Abbey.Mutual care for one another, embodying Christ's example of loving service (actio).The formation and sustainment of deep and often lifelong friendships.A collaborative way of life, grounded in the value of communio and expressed in teaching and learning, in study and research, and in the generous sharing of our resources.A joyful generosity in offering and giving of ourselves to the local community (stabilitas and localitas) and to the wider world by sharing our gifts with those who look to us in their need.A commitment to seek to be ministers of peace and reconciliation in the spirit of St. Norbert.The practice of hospitality in the spirit of the Gospel and the Rule of St. Augustine, and in the urging of St. Norbert. We are the inheritors of a rich tradition, a small but vital corporate member of the Body of Christ in service to the human family in our times, committed to using our study, research and other resources to preserving the earth -- our common home; to be ministers of peace and reconciliation; and, ultimately, to be Creation's voice in praising the God who has rooted us in this place where we are called to teach by that example that is the test of authentic teaching.We live and work together as we have for 900 years engaged continually in the transformative work of conversion, of seeking after God. As in the Acts of the Apostles, in the life of Augustine's monasteries and in the history of the order, no individual or community ever arrives at a perfect living out of the apostolic life, but faith-filled perseverance carries us forward in humility and trust in God's mercy.Toward that end, we accept Augustine's directive that we see his Rule as a kind of mirror, which we hold up to ourselves and one another in order to discern where we fall short and where we have reason to give God thanks for the reception of those graces which are particular to our identity as inheritors of Norbertine tradition.(Updated and approved by St. Norbert Abbey in its June Chapter, 2022.)

Falter also worked to build a partnership with schools and teachers in rural Kitale, Kenya, providing professional development training to 300-plus educators there. From these experiences, she has developed a profound love of global learning and engagement. Falter's awards and achievements include: Outstanding Global Engagement Award by North Carolina State University (2023) North Carolina English Teachers Association's Anti-Racist Teacher of the Year Award (2020) Nilsen-Donelson Award for the Best Article of the Year in The ALAN Review (2016) Interests Falter has a deep commitment to diversity and social justice, helping educators co-construct knowledge with their students using critical, feminist and dialogic teaching practices. At the heart of her work as a scholar and teacher is advocacy and allyship for -- and with -- all teachers and students. Her research interests include dialogic and critical pedagogies, English teacher education, young adult literature and emotion in the teaching of literature and writing in the secondary classroom. Her research talks back to paradigms that neglect both teachers and students in the conversation, that attempt to dictate curriculum and pedagogy to mean one testable thing, and that expect English language arts to be the learning of discrete facts, devoid of emotion and passion or critical discussion of topics relevant to our students' lives.

Her research focuses on the motivational nature of emotion and its connection with personality in the onset and maintenance of psychopathology. Much of her research examines how shame -- a self-conscious emotion that people experience when unwanted outcomes are attributed to personal inadequacies -- contributes to a wide range of mental and physical health outcomes (e.g., self-injurious behavior, personality disorders). As part of this work, Schoenleber is developing and examining the transdiagnostic utility of cognitive-behavioral treatments that target shame. Schoenleber's teaching focuses on experiential learning and building skills that can be useful in careers that involve caring for others as well as in students' everyday lives. Additionally, she teaches the writing intensive sections of "Introduction to Psychological Science" which focus on developing scientific writing skills that help students prepare for required activities in later psychology courses. She is a recipient of the Donald B. King Distinguished Scholar Award from SNC.
