  • SPOTLIGHT ON… #WorldMentalHealthDay and Saint Mary’s alumna Wendy Oduor ’14, Miss Kenya USA, and mental health advocate. Crowned Miss Kenya USA in 2019, Saint Mary’s College biology and psychology major, Wendy Oduor is using her platform to redefine the narrative around mental health in the US, Kenya, and globally. Oduor’s passion for raising awareness around mental health issues was ignited after losing her brother to suicide in 2014. She describes her grieving process as being “initially silent” but she eventually understood that “pain can birth purpose when allowed” and is sharing her experience as a guest speaker and utilizing social media to create awareness and a safe space where people break their silence and are encouraged to seek professional help. Keep up with Wendy Oduor on Instagram with her Mental Health Monday Instagram Live segment and check out her podcast #1tooMany on Soundcloud.

  • Last week the College’s Facebook page received a message from a woman who found a Saint Mary’s ring in Temple Bar in Dublin. It had been missing for four years and oddly enough, a fellow alumna was headed to Dublin for another Belle’s wedding. Now just to reunite it with the owner, Kelly Konya ‘15, back in the US! The Saint Mary’s ring is really magical ✨ #bellesrings #ringsdoingthings

  • An Evening with Tracy K. Smith was certainly an evening to remember. #PLOTUS I think the creative state which is beholden to something unseen lives both outside and within the self and is similar to the state of openness, humility, compassion and receptivity at the root of Christ’s message about the kingdom of God, which also lives both outside and within the self.” - Tracy K. Smith
