In line with our strategic plan goals of developing leaders and exploring our heritage and identity, two Saint Mary’s students expanded their “Lasallian family” and expanded their global perspective at the Lasallian Student Leadership Conference at La Salle University in Philadelphia. Nicxie Mazon and Sam Kreutzfeldt were among the 37 students and 10 faculty from 13 Christian Brothers colleges from seven countries who gathered for the July 14-26 conference.

The goal of the conference was to build bridges among the culturally diverse participants and provide opportunities to explore their similarities and differences. It emphasized developing leadership skills and building a cooperative international network of students identified as future Lasallian leaders by their home universities.
