Student Affairs

Welcome to Student Affairs

On behalf of the entire Division of Student Affairs at St. Catherine University, please accept my warmest welcome. We are delighted to have you as part of the St. Kate's community.

This is an exciting time for students, faculty and staff at the University as we embark on our second century of educating women to lead and influence. This next century will prove to be even better than the first, so come help us further the legacy of St. Catherine University.

I am proud of the wonderful array of programs offered to students by our amazing Student Affairs staff. We encourage all students to fully participate in all that we offer - there is something for everyone. If you can't find a club or organization that interests you, let us know and we'll help you start a new one. We invite you to explore Coeur de Catherine, our wonderful new Student Center and Learning Commons, and to make it your living room at the University.

We are thrilled you have chosen to be a part of our community. Please feel free to stop in any of our offices and introduce yourself. Have a great year.

Sincerely,

Brian J. Bruess, Ph.D.
Vice President for Enrollment Management and
Dean of Student Affairs
