Does the name change reflect a move away from a women-only baccalaureate program?
Absolutely not! The President and Board of Trustees have reiterated their commitment to a women-only baccalaureate program. We have worked hard to build our status as the largest women’s college in the country, and we remain committed to the education of women — which is at the heart of St. Catherine’s and distinguishes us from other academic institutions regionally. Our graduate programs will continue to admit both women and men. However, programs at all levels benefit from the women-centered pedagogy of St. Catherine’s, with its emphasis on collaboration and personal interaction.
