Saint Mary’s University of Minnesota Poem

From Alma Mater Vol. 1: The Midwest. Available Now!

*Saint Mary’s University of Minnesota*

What kind of student will you be?
What kind of leader will you be?
God gave your being the capacity to become—
Not to merely be.
Through His charism we are adorned with virtue,
And serene with the spread of true men,
Beneath the knowledge and rock of great family men
Lies the granite devotion of a woman…
That shouldn’t be taken for granted,
but rather
Due Granted.
St. Mary’s University endows this virtue
Into the Lasallian service
&
Our Cardinals lead as Christian Brothers
To strengthen society with the powers
of Mothers.
