Hello everyone,

Please share this opportunity with anyone who might be interested in the role of director for the Master of Social Work program at Saint Mary’s College in Notre Dame, Indiana. Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions.

I want to give a shout-out to our dear puppy, Tegan, on her last day at SMC. She has warmed many hearts on campus, including mine. She will be greatly missed. Thank you for all the comfort and love you've given us, and enjoy your well-earned retirement.

We look forward to our annual Social Work Spring Luncheon, a perfect opportunity to thank everyone who supports our practicum students and social work majors. It’s a great way to strengthen our SMC and South Bend community.
