Yesterday, some of the members of our Saints Agency team got an exclusive session with Christopher (CSS Alumni) and Molly from the Northland Small Business Development Center.

The Northland SBDC’s Christopher Henagin and Molly Solberg spoke with students at the St. Scholastica Stender School, Business and Technology Programs at The College of St. Scholastica!

These impressive young professionals are pursuing degrees in Organizational Leadership, Business Management, Marketing, and Data Analytics, with one candidate working toward an MBA. As current or former student-athletes, they all have incredibly bright futures ahead of them!

The newly launched Saints Agency has already supported several small businesses in our first semester and a half with marketing, social media, IT, and bookkeeping services. Watch this video to learn more about our student-led + faculty-supported Saints Agency from two students on the team.

We are challenging our Stender alums and friends to help us meet a donor match. Select “The Saints Agency” for the fund in the dropdown on the giving page to donate $10: go.css.edu/givetocssday

Julia M., a student in our MBA in Leadership & Change, shared her experiences and personal values with our Dignitas (1st year students) as a panelist last week.

Last week, we celebrated the Feast of St. Scholastica, honoring the namesake of our College, our Foundress, and our founding community, the Sisters of St. Scholastica Monastery.
We gathered in Mitchell Auditorium with three outstanding alumni for a meaningful conversation and Q&A on how they understand and live out our shared values. Special thanks to Adam Holden ‘15, Heather Springer ‘22, and Julia Maier ‘24 for joining us back on our Duluth campus, and to Dr. David Marc for moderating the presentation.
Thank you to everyone who joined us—faculty, staff, and students—for making it such a special week of reflection and connection. 💙
