Fairfield Bellarmine

Nakia Letang, Director of Admission at Fairfield Bellarmine and Brian Leonelli-Blain, Associate Director of Financial Aid at Fairfield Bellarmine attended Decision Day at Warren Harding High School in Bridgeport, CT, celebrating two students who will be joining Fairfield Bellarmine this upcoming school year.

The event was planned by Rebecca Bristhole (pictured), who will be attending main campus this fall. Congratulations to all!

A great day in New York City for our Fairfield Bellarmine students, combining career exploration, alumni connections, and a performance of "Buena Vista Social Club" on Broadway!

Students met with Fairfield University Alumni Jessica Baehr '04, MBA'11 at Equitable and Chris Taggart '05, who shared insights into their career journeys and experiences in the finance and Broadway industries. Their perspectives gave students a valuable look at the many paths available after graduation.

Bank of America visited Fairfield Bellarmine to lead a financial literacy and credit workshop for students.

Speaker Lori Hassan-Lionetti, Vice President, Small Business Banking, at Bank of America, and her team shared practical tips on building credit, managing money, and setting up financial stability beyond college.

Fairfield Bellarmine students wrapped up the semester with a visit to the The Maritime Aquarium at Norwalk during the final week of classes.

The trip, sponsored by Student Life and Fairfield University Campus Ministry, invited students to explore and appreciate the vibrant ecosystems of the Long Island Sound we get to call home.

Fairfield Bellarmine welcomed Dr. Shokry Eldaly, an educator, researcher, and innovation architect for his "Flipped & Future-Ready Learning: Higher-Order Thinking in University Classrooms" workshop focused on equitable, student-centered learning and supporting first-generation and historically underserved students.

As Founder & Chief Executive of Grow Society, Dr. Eldaly leads all Teacher's College, Columbia University-facing partnerships and brings extensive experience supporting programs that serve historically disenfranchised, first-generation, low-income, and historically underserved learners.

Still thinking about this special day for Fairfield Bellarmine's Class of 2026. ❤️ 🎓

Jaheim Mckie AS’25,’27 and Steven Simon AS’25,’27—graduates from Fairfield Bellarmine's inaugural Class of 2025 and now students in the Fairfield University Charles F.

Congratulations to Roshaun Johnson FB’26, who was named a recipient of Fairfield University's Romero Award at the Student Achievement Awards. Named after St. Oscar Romero of El Salvador, the award recognizes a student in the associate’s degree program who exemplifies the spirit of a Catholic, Jesuit education through academic excellence, leadership, and a commitment to service.

"After graduating high school, I was unsure of what the future held for me regarding pursuing higher education. Bellarmine was my lifeline that gave me the opportunity to pursue my passion at an affordable price. I immediately fell in love with the campus, the staff, and all they had to offer. This award is a testament to the arduous effort that I have dedicated to my academics and community involvement… [and reflects] the continuous support and love that the Bellarmine community has poured into me over the last two years.” - Roshaun Johnson FB’26

Through Fairfield Arts Excursions, an Arts Institute grant-funded program within the Fairfield University John Charles Meditz College of Arts and Sciences, a group of Fairfield Bellarmine students had the opportunity to visit the MoMA The Museum of Modern Art in New York City.

Students encountered works they had previously studied in class with Ryan Harper, PhD, assistant professor of the practice in religious studies, in his course on art and Afro-Caribbean religions.
