Vice President of Advancement | St. Norbert College | De Pere, WI About St. Norbert College Founded in 1898 and recognized as one of the most highly regarded Catholic liberal arts colleges in the country, St. Norbert College (SNC) is the world's only Norbertine college. Its idyllic campus sits along a bend of the Fox River in De Pere, WI (a suburb of Green Bay). At the center of a St. Norbert education are three core traditions: Catholic, Norbertine, and liberal arts. First, as a Catholic college, SNC is guided by the rich Catholic Intellectual Tradition developed over centuries, as well as Catholic Social Teaching that establishes principles for human engagement in the world of relationships and service to, for, and among others. The Catholic tradition furthermore calls the institution to uphold the sacred dignity of all persons, seek truth through an ongoing dialogue among faith, reason, and culture, and utilize knowledge to promote a Gospel vision of justice. Secondly, the Norbertine identity of the College revolves around four pillars of Norbertine spirituality: actio or action, contemplatio or contemplation, stabilitas or stability, and communio or communion. The values of action and stability call the institution to respond to and serve the needs of both the local and global communities, while the College practices contemplation by praying and reflecting communally and individually, welcoming all to participate, and seeking peace and reconciliation in the spirit of St. Norbert. The College embraces the aspirational ideal of communio, a community united as one on the way to God. In practice, communio is experienced as a deep sense of community that supports an educational environment fostering intellectual, spiritual, social, and personal development, both inside and outside the classroom. Communio challenges the entire campus community to engage in open dialogue, consultation, and collaboration and urges all members to show respect, mutual esteem, trust, sincerity, faith, and responsibility. Finally, the liberal arts tradition calls the institution to: dialogue with diverse cultures, perspectives, and beliefs; cultivate a love of lifelong learning inspired by excellent teaching; think critically as responsible members of society; and integrate knowledge across the disciplines (i.e., arts, humanities, natural sciences, and social sciences). SNC promotes the development of the whole person by cultivating practices of study, reflection, prayer, wellness, play, and action. St. Norbert College's commitment to excellence is reflected in its national recognition. According to the most recent U.S. News and World Report, SNC ranks 90th among all national liberal arts colleges, and it is among both the top 40 colleges for social mobility and the top 70 best-value colleges. The College is known for its: • integration of Catholic, Norbertine, and liberal arts traditions throughout campus academic excellence • engaged students, talented faculty, and dedicated staff • high-impact educational practices (i.e., research, service, and leadership opportunities) • robust college-to-career planning and pathways • winning athletic tradition • vibrant partnerships • the success of its graduates With approximately 1,600 students currently, SNC has successfully recruited incoming classes that are more diverse and academically talented each year. The College continues to build on its strong foundation of excellence, while responding to 21st century student needs. Like many higher-education institutions, SNC has recently completed a comprehensive right-sizing initiative to ensure that its legacy is preserved.

About Philanthropy at St. Norbert College: St. Norbert College has experienced remarkable institutional and philanthropic growth during the last decade, resulting in one of the most beautiful and modern campuses in the upper Midwest. More than $150 million in new construction and renovation has resulted in seven state-of-the-art facilities (the Gehl-Mulva Science Center; the Cassandra Voss Center; the Miriam B. and James J. Mulva Library; Dudley Birder Hall; Michels Commons; Schneider Stadium; and the Mulva Family Fitness &amp; Sports Center). Additionally, the College broke ground in May 2024 on its new Donald &amp; Patricia Schneider Family Hall, with a lead gift from the Schneider family. The 45,000-square-foot, multi-use facility will be home to the College's undergraduate and graduate business and economics programs, including data analytics and a new sports management program. St. Norbert College's Support What Matters campaign concluded successfully in 2024 and exceeded its $125 million goal, securing $128 million from 16,711 donors. The campaign was timed to align with the College's 125th anniversary. SNC celebrated the triumphant completion of this eight-year campaign in the fall of 2024 in coordination with the inauguration of President Laurie M. Joyner. The College's endowment is another source of financial stability – it has grown from $38 million in 1998 to nearly $200 million currently. Additionally, annual giving continues to thrive. In March 2025, SNC's annual giving day (A Day to uKnight) included approximately 250 donors and raised more than $545,000. SNC expects to close out this post-campaign fiscal year having secured more than $7 million in total fundraising. With campaign momentum still strong and a new Strategic Plan on the horizon, the College will now shift its fundraising efforts away from capital projects to focus on securing critical scholarship support, endowment dollars, and unrestricted operating funds.
