Thanks to alumni and friends, St. John鈥檚 has swept past the $300 million goal for the Freeing Minds campaign鈥攎onths ahead of the campaign鈥檚 scheduled conclusion on June 30, 2023.
鈥淐ome one, come all鈥� is the message of Johnnie Week, inviting alumni and families to return to either or both campuses, or reconnect with St. John鈥檚 through a week of virtual programming.
The Elizabeth Myers Mitchell Art Museum will reopen to the public on February 17. The museum closed in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and for the past three years has offered online-programming while the surrounding space underwent renovations. The newly renamed Mitchell Art Museum, previously known as the Mitchell Gallery, is the only art museum in Anne Arundel County accredited by the American Alliance of Museums, and one of only five to be accredited in the state of Maryland.
Henry Horsey (SF79), a management consultant based in Washington, DC, firmly believes that one can learn most technology implementations in several weeks or months, but it takes a lot more time to teach people how to communicate both orally and in writing. St. John鈥檚 College graduates come to the job market with those skills honed and matured.
Like the Program itself, St. John鈥檚 alumni volunteerism is multifaceted. It translates into a range of action, from reviewing students鈥� r茅sum茅s to helming booths at school fairs鈥攐r even embarking on a highly personal project, such as Jack Armstrong (SF83) did a decade ago.
