Taking care of your mind is just as important as taking care of your grades. 💙🧠

This World Mental Health Day, we’re reminding all our Knights that you never have to navigate college stress alone. At the Mount, we practice holistic care by supporting your mind, body, and spirit across campus. Whether through the Student Health and Wellness Center or self-reflection in the Chapel of the Most Holy Rosary, we’re here to help you care for your overall well-being.

Here are just a few of the spaces and resources available right here at the Mount:

🧠 Counseling Services: Free, confidential, short-term support when you need someone to talk to. Telehealth services for mental health are also available to all Mount students.

🙏 Campus Ministry: A peaceful space for spiritual growth, reflection, and quiet moments with Fr. Greg.

🧘 The Stress Less Room: A quiet oasis on campus featuring massage chairs, soothing lighting, and space to reset.

☀️ Outdoor Spaces & Fresh Air: One of the best ways to unwind, recharge, and take a breather? Step outside and take in the views from campus.

Remember to check in on your friends and take a deep breath today, Knights.

What does it take to earn the Mid-Hudson School Study Council's Teacher Excellence Award?

For Nicole Bosi-Oliveria, a fifth-grade teacher at Little Britain Elementary School and MSMC alumna, it was her dedication to students, leadership within the school community, and commitment to creating meaningful learning experiences both in and beyond the classroom.

“I’m deeply honored to receive this recognition, but the real joy comes from working with our students every day,” she explained.

Celebrating our Dominican heritage 💙

This past Tuesday, we honored the legacy of St. Dominic de Guzman and the Dominican Sisters whose vision guided the creation of the college during our annual Founders Day celebration.

143 years ago this year, the founders of Mount Saint Mary College arrived in Newburgh, NY, aboard the Mary Powell steamboat, with one mission: to open an elementary school on Gidney Avenue (now Bishop Dunn Memorial School). With the teachings of St. Dominic de Guzman as their guide, the Sisters started a teacher training school in 1930, and less than three decades later, Mount Saint Mary College was granted a charter to become a four-year liberal arts institution.

66 years later, we still honor the vision, mission, and legacy of our founders!
