University is highlighted for science programsby U.S. Representative

Having a United States Representative talk about you in front of others is a great way to get known. Recently, Rep. John Kline of Minnesota's 2nd District did just that at a meeting of the Rochester Chamber of Commerce on the topic of STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) research and education. Rep. Kline specifically mentioned Saint Mary's University as an educational leader in STEM education with minorities.

At the meeting, administrators and faculty from Saint Mary’s joined regional educational partners such as the chancellor of the University of Minnesota, WSU, Rochester public and private schools, and representatives from businesses like IBM.
