Mary Ann Lantsberger-Herriott '45, born on March 22, 1926, in Castlewood, South Dakota, is a Woman of Grit.
Her childhood was spent on the family farm, often walking the railroad tracks a mile and a half to a one-room, country schoolhouse. College of Saint Mary was where Mary Ann furthered her education and studied accounting for one semester, which was all she could afford.
As a teenager Mary Ann took flight lessons and was able to fly solo for the first time at age eighteen. It was something she enjoyed for years before taking the time to raise her four children. In her retirement years, she would again take flying lessons. Mary Ann was a member of the Beta Sigma Phi sorority, an organization in which she was active for over 60 years.
Her family has since established an endowed scholarship at CSM in the hopes that it would help a student complete the education she never could. #WomenofGrit
We eliminated fees at CSM to simplify the financial aid process and offer transparency for our students. Just another step in our commitment to providing access to an affordable education. #NoFees #NoSurprises

It's our hope that you've experienced full hearts and full bellies after this Thanksgiving holiday. Researchers recently found that one-third of college students felt uncertain about their ability to afford and acquire nutritious food. Now more than ever it's important that we support one another.
CSM is currently in the third year of its food pantry program titled, “The Pantry: Healthy Choices, Healthy Living.” Last year, the university launched “2nd Bite Take and Go,” a sustainability initiative where excess food from the dining hall is made available to commuter students.
These programs had to adjust slightly due to the pandemic, but if you have any questions or know someone who needs additional support, contact Carla Gerriets, director of campus ministry, at CGerriets@CSM.edu.

CSM's Office of Diversity & Inclusion and the Student Leadership & Organizations Office would like to invite students, faculty and staff to join us as we honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s legacy. We welcome guest speaker Jasmine Harris this Friday, Jan. 15th, from 12-1 p.m. (via Zoom)
Martin Luther King Jr. spent his adult life fighting for the equal treatment of Black people and eradication of racism in America. In his last speech, “I’ve Been to the Mountaintop”, he expressed that he had been to the top of the mountain and saw the Promised Land. The Promised Land he talked about included equal treatment and integration. But, have we actually reached this mountain top?
Jasmine L. Harris, is the Director of Public Policy and Advocacy at RISE. She will speak on the difference between equality, equity, racism and anti-racism, and the importance of renewed commitment we must all take to ensure we are able to make it to the mountaintop and beyond…together.

“When the world told me it wasn’t possible, you helped pave a way.”
We have received word that Maria Luisa Gaston is near death. Please join us in our prayers for her and her family at this time.
Maria Luisa impacted more lives than we can count. She is a pioneer and the epitome of what College of Saint Mary stands for. As the CSM Latino Outreach Coordinator and Admissions Counselor from 2005-2014, she was keenly focused on serving and supporting the Latinx community – specifically undocumented high school graduates. Gaston was integral in securing the funding for CSM’s Misericordia Scholarship. She left an incredible legacy not just at CSM, but in the greater Omaha area.
College of Saint Mary will start a special Misericordia Scholarship in Maria Luisa’s name. Feel free to offer your support, your prayers or a favorite memory in the comments. Let us all lift her up – as she did for so many. #ThankYouMariaLuisa ❤️

CSM Celebrates the Lunar New Year!
Our own Dr. Jing Chang wearing a traditional cheongsam or qipao. It was a daily wear for Manchu women in Qing Dynasty of China’s (1644-1912). This one-piece dress has a high neck, closed collar, a loose chest, a fitted waist, and slits up the sides. Starting in about 1920, fashion designers modified Qipao and made it to be the traditional dress for women since then!
Take a minute to watch this video. Such amazing skill on display (and extremely satisfying to the eyes).

31 Student Leaders in 31 Days during the month of March
Chloe Inhelder
“As a freshman, the leadership opportunities I have experienced here at CSM have made me grow and go outside of my comfort zone. During Freshman year, I applied to become a member of Campus Activities Board. I work directly with the Entertainment Board, and so far I believe it will benefit me for the career path I have chosen. At first I was very hesitant with being part of the club as a freshman, but all the members of CAB made me feel welcomed and not afraid to bring ideas to the table. They have shown me how to be more confident in myself and not be afraid to add my opinion. Overall, my goal is to grow more as a student and a person with this opportunity that I have been blessed with. “
