Albertus Magnus College 1
This fall we arrived at a wonderful moment in our history: the 85th
Anniversary of the founding of Albertus Magnus College by the dedicated
Dominican Sisters of St. Mary of the Springs. The Sisters of Peace,
their successor congregation, continues to sponsor the College. We are
grateful to the Dominicans for the unwavering confidence they have
placed in us over these many decades.
During our year-long celebration of this 85TH ANNIVERSARY, we honor
our past, promote our present and proclaim our future. Ours is a rich story in which tradition, excellence and
innovation blend seamlessly as we carry out our mission of providing an education that fosters the search
for truth in all its dimensions and is practical in its application.
Providing the blueprint for the College’s future is our dynamic 2009–2014 Strategic Plan: New
Initiatives for a New Decade. A major component of this plan is the Rosary Project, which will renovate
interior space in the LIBRARY AT ROSARY HALL , transforming it into
a state-of-the-art, contemporary library providing the necessities and amenities required of a 21st-century
information center serving the needs of students and faculty of all programs.
In the past year, we have expanded the scope of our graduate programs with the addition of the
Master of Fine Arts in Writing and the Master of Science in Human Services. On the undergraduate level,
we have added new programs as well, including the Bachelor of Arts in Global Studies, which promotes
understanding of the impact of globalization on today’s increasingly complex world.
In 2025, just 15 short years away, we shall mark the centennial of this extraordinary institution.
In the meantime, we continue CHANGING LIVES for our students and their families
through excellent and innovative educational programs. Throughout this report, you will find stories from
our graduates, telling of the impact Albertus has had on them; their heartfelt words give life to our mission
of service and inspire us as we grow in our role in higher education. Have you shared your story?*
Faithfully yours,
Dr. Julia M. McNamara, President

Honor Roll of Donors
Albertus is deeply grateful to its donors, especially our graduates who care so passionately
about alma mater, and to those alumni and friends who have thoughtfully included the
College in their estate planning.—Julia M. McNamara
It was very important to me personally and professionally to complete my studies and obtain my degree.
I’m very proud to be the first in my immediate family to have graduated with a four-year degree, and to
be the first student from New Dimensions to give remarks at the College’s Laurel night ceremonies.

I feel so fortunate to have attended
Albertus. It set the tone for the rest of
my life. Although I hadn’t intended to
teach, Albertus provided me with all the
tools: intellectual curiosity, empathy,
leadership and a sense of adventure.
After graduation, I spent two years
teaching in Nigeria and then over
30 years at Eastchester High School
in N.Y., where I specialized in global
studies and humanities. I was fortunate
to have had numerous grants in India,
Southeast Asia and Japan, which
solidified my interest in travel. It all
started with Albertus!

Whenever anyone disparages a liberal arts education, I am a staunch defender. I always have been.
At AMC, I did not learn what to think; I learned how to think. As a result of that, I have crafted a fulfilling
35-year career in the field of spinal cord injury medicine, which I could never have envisioned when
I received my Albertus diploma. I had always hoped that I was destined to make a difference in the
world. Thanks in part to my four years at AMC, I have been able to do that.

TRADITION since 1925
ALBERTUS MAGNUS COLLEGE has an extraordinarily rich history,
one that is deeply rooted in our Catholic and Dominican heritage and the
Judeo-Christian tradition. Here, we honor our past, promote our present
and proclaim our future. Here, scholarship and lifelong learning are prized.
Tradition and innovation blend seamlessly at Albertus, inspiring
excellence in all we do. The greatest innovation in the history of Albertus
Magnus College is the creation of the institution itself. Visionary and
courageous Dominican Sisters responded to a comment made by the
mother of a young woman, about to enter college, that there was no
Catholic liberal arts residential college for women in the New Haven area,
or in all of New England. The Sisters saw an opportunity to be of service
and created a college unique to its time and place. This commitment to
new thinking, to thinking outside the box, has endured across generations
of distinguished faculty members and their students of all ages in under-
graduate and, now, graduate programs. The endless search for truth in all
its dimensions is the hallmark of the Albertus education, which is practical
in its application.

My personal story of development is a “work in progress” as I feel that we all have the responsibility to improveourselves throughout our lives.
My epiphany came nearly ten yearsago after a personal tragedy forced me to realize I was very much alone.
My career was going nowhere. I enrolled in the MBA program and felt I was given a new lease on life. The professors were smart, supportive and inspiring.
The Albertus Magnus MBA degreehelped me obtain a much more lucrativeposition, but more importantly, from anemotional perspective it made me feelthat I could not just stand on my own,but that I could excel!

Why Albertus Today?As an undergraduate, I had theprivilege of attending AlbertusMagnus College, where I was morethan just a number. The facultymembers care about the studentsand are eager to offer their assis-tance. Albertus is a college thatstands by its mission statement, ensuring that its students are well-rounded, and are provided with a quality education. Because of my wonderful experience at AMC, I enrolled in the Master of Sciencein Human Services program. If you are looking for personal attention and a quality education,Albertus Magnus College is theschool for you.
I teach Algebra, Geometry, and Pre-Calculuscourses to students in grades 9 –12 at AmityHigh School, District #5, in Woodbridge, CT.I chose the Master of Science in Educationdegree at Albertus Magnus College becausethe objectives and courses in the programaligned with the initiatives of my school district. I felt that the program would makeme more knowledgeable as an educator and, at the same time, make me a valuableasset for my district. As I move through the program, I like the fact that what I amlearning can be applied in my own class-room, and it also provides me with a betterunderstanding of district, state, and nationalobjectives in terms of what and how I teach.The M.S.Ed. program is a great personal and professional experience for me.
I completed my first internship at UCONNas part of the Northeast Alliance ResearchExperience for Undergraduates the sum-mer after my freshman year. I had no sig-nificant laboratory experience, yet I wantedto have a productive summer. As an internat the School of Pharmacy, I spent 10weeks conducting research, acquiringskills essential for graduate school, net-working, making friends, and having a lotof fun! I returned to UCONN this past sum-mer to continue my research.

In 2007, I received my Bachelor’s degreethrough the Accelerated Degree Program.Since I loved my time at Albertus, I decidedto check out the Master of Arts degree inLeadership. Once I was in this program, I found that it went beyond my expectations;it jolted my thinking and gave me so muchmore confidence in myself. I felt transformed.Four months after getting my Master’s degree, I received a promotion to accountand educational specialist providing training workshops at Yale New Haven Health System.

Growing up as a first-generation Ameri-can, I was taught that education is thegateway to success. Because my parentswere not able to obtain the educationthey desired, they emphasized the valueof learning and reminded me thathigher education is not always easilyavailable to everyone worldwide.
I was drawn to the Liberal Studiesprogram at Albertus Magnus because itis designed to meet the needs of a stu-dent who wants an interdisciplinary,broad-based graduate education ratherthan specializing in a single discipline.As a mother and working professional,the flexibility of a liberal arts educationwith evening classes appealed to me.Through the program, I confrontedmany issues and was able to explore the social, humanistic and scientific dimensions of our world. I believe thatthe Master of Arts in Liberal Studiesprogram has provided me with theskills necessary to enhance my ability to contribute to the quality of both mypersonal and professional life. This education has nurtured a habit of life-long learning, which, in return, will lead me to live a fully rewarding and responsible life.
In 2005, I was a member of the College’s first cohort in a programfor qualified educators that providesan alternative route for certificationas a literacy specialist in readingand language arts. I completed theAdvanced Alternative PreparationProgram in 2006. At the time, I wasa first-grade teacher at John B.Sliney School in Branford, CT, and Isoon was appointed to the positionof literacy specialist. I continue towork with students, coach class-room teachers and model literacyinstruction. My performance in theAAP Program plus my experienceas a teacher and a literacy special-ist led to my appointment to thestaff here at Albertus as an AAP advisor, as well as a Saturday seminar presenter on Teaching Literacy/Reading K–12.
The education program has prepared me tolook forward with confidence to having my ownclassroom. The hands-on field work hours arethe most valuable part of the program in myeyes. There is no way that a lecture can simu-late the situations that you will be working within real life. Even other teachers that I haveworked with are thoroughly impressed with theamounts of hours a student at AMC accrues inthe classroom prior to student teaching.
Perhaps the most important thing any college student can do is participate in internship. While interning at the Depart-ment of Finance for the City of New Haven,I gained real world experience you can’t get in the classroom. Based on my internshipperformance, I was offered a paid position.Looking back over the past four years, I am glad I chose AMC. I received a qualityeducation and am ready for an entry level position in my field.
As an older undergraduate at Albertus, I often felt unsure of mypath. Given my age, I felt I shouldbe certain the direction I washeading in was the right one, asthe opportunity for change mightnot come again. My seniorpracticum made the difference. It gave me new perspective, allowed me to grow in ways I had not thought possible and increased my confidence. Bookknowledge is always necessaryand important, but first-hand experience is priceless!

The Next 85 YearsIF THE PAST IS BUT PROLOGUE TO THE FUTURE,
the next 85 years for Albertus Magnus College
will continue to be bright, indeed. In 1925, our
“one-room schoolhouse” was the elegant 50-room
mansion known as “Ten Acres,” which housed
the College’s classrooms, dormitory rooms,
dining hall, library, chapel and lodging for the
Dominican Sisters in the renamed Rosary Hall.
Today, our beloved Library at Rosary Hall, always
the traditional heart of the campus, is undergoing
an interior renovation to transform it into a 21st
century contemporary library and information
common, enhanced by state-of-the-art technology
and welcoming amenities. It is fitting that the
magnificent columned façade, the backdrop for
decades of joyous commencement ceremonies,
now becomes the symbolic entryway to the future.
The architectural plans shown on this page are
the original 1904 drawings for Rosary Hall;
the new look will reflect the needs of a modern
educational institution, vibrant and focused on
the future.

The value of a liberal arts education comes into sharper focus as the years pass since graduation.
The ability to write, think and reason is the true virtue of those who graduate from AMC. I have come
to appreciate this more and more over the years.

Albertus is like a family, truly a com-
munity. I was impressed with the amount
of care my professor showed for me.
He made all of us feel that he was set-
ting us up for success. I felt he really
understood the challenges I was facing,
working a nine-hour day. College offers
you an array of opportunities; there
are certain jobs that you will not even
get an opportunity to apply for if you
don’t have a degree. You can start
with just one course; you will eventually
get there.
