Note From the President
The summer issue of St. Catherine University Magazine is always special to me because it provides an opportunity to thank our community for the incredible support that sustains our students and our University every day. Your support is the bedrock of our culture of philanthropy at St. Kate’s.
As I reflect on the end of my presidency and the beginning of a new chapter for St. Kate’s, I feel an extraordinary sense of gratitude for the deep commitment of our alumni and donors throughout my eight-year tenure. The role of a university president is to wrap one’s arms around the entirety of the institutional community — in our case, a worldwide fellowship of alumni and donors, plus all of the students, faculty, staff, parents, friends, arts patrons, worship congregants, partnering organizations, and neighbors who invigorate our campus and our mission. What has been particularly remarkable about this work for me is watching that expansive, international, and diverse community embrace today’s Katies right back in support of their futures. Together, through mentoring, monetary contributions, committee work, and other gifts of all kinds, you forge a St. Catherine culture of philanthropy that will launch students and graduates for years to come.
I have complete faith that the St. Catherine community will welcome our new president, Marcheta P. Evans, PhD, with that same warmth, and that she is precisely the leader needed for St. Kate’s to step confidently into the future. Her contributions in leadership, diversity,
multiculturalism, and women’s issues, as well as her 30-year track record of excellence in higher education, make her uniquely well-suited to guide St. Kate’s and all the lives it touches.
I cannot wait to see what the future holds for this University. Your generosity and commitment allow St. Kate’s to accomplish the work we have always loved most: educating the compassionate, exceptional, and courageous women who enter our gates to lead and influence, confident in the power they carry to change the world.

In the Footsteps of CSJ History

Alumnae trip to France explores St. Kate’s heritage.
In April, a coterie of alumnae traveled with President ReBecca Koenig Roloff ’76 through southern France, visiting a series of sites with deep resonance in the history of St. Catherine University and our founding Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet (CSJs).
The travelers began their journey in Lyon, exploring both famous monuments, such as Notre-Dame de Fourvière, and more intimate settings specific to the University’s CSJ roots. Particularly meaningful was a visit to the grave of Mother St. John Fontbonne, for whom a St. Kate’s building is named. Fontbonne re-founded the CSJ order after its suppression during the French Revolution, and in the mid-1800s sent the first Sisters across the ocean to the United States.
At Le Puy-en-Velay — the birthplace of the CSJ order — alumnae received a warm welcome from the resident Sisters, enjoying guided tours of Cathedral Notre Dame du Puy, the International Center of St. Joseph, and an original CSJ kitchen dating from 1650. The lace making demonstration at Martine’s Lace Shop particularly inspired the trip’s spiritual leader, Cathy Steffens, CSJ, ’67.
“Lace making was quiet work of common women in the 17th century,” shared Sister Steffens. “The first Sisters of
St. Joseph who taught it probably helped women keep food on the table. Watching Martine create beautiful lace in the 21st century gives me enormous hope that women will always support others in all of life, including beauty as well as basic sustenance.”
The alumnae joined in song at each site sacred to the Sisters’ heritage. They lifted their voices in a composition close to the heart of CSJs and Catholic women religious, written by Suzanne Toolan, RSM: “Sacred is the call, awesome indeed the entrustment / Tending the holy, tending the holy.”
Unique to the itinerary of this year’s alumni trip was its final stop in Arles, where the church that inspired Our Lady of Victory Chapel still stands. At the Church of Saint-Trophime, alumnae reflected on their time at St. Kate’s as well as in France.
“As a student, I was a die-hard Katie through and through,” said Terri Kaase ’93. “However, within two years of graduation, I had lost my connection to St. Kate’s. Originally, I signed up for this trip as a way to finally visit France, but it has been an amazing experience. It has reconnected me to the spirit of St. Kate’s: a hospitable and caring community for all without distinction.”

What students are reading in classes this fall
Binti
by Nnedi Okorafor (2015) The Reflective Woman (College for Women)
In Nnedi Okorafor’s novella Binti , we meet Binti — a first-generation college student, traveling to university. She practices unique cultural traditions that create connections to and memories of home, and finds herself involved in a space war that intrudes in devastating ways on her life. I hope Binti’s story will resonate with our College for Women students in The Reflective Woman because, in many ways, she could be a member of the St. Kate’s Class of 2028. Okorafor explores big questions central to a St. Kate’s education: What does leadership look like? (Binti reminds us that leaders look and act in many different ways.) Who are we? How do our traditions help to define us, and how do we understand traditions different from ours? What is justice? What does forgiveness look like in the midst of horrific injustice?
— Rachel Neiwert, PhD, associate professor of history
Body Kindness
by Rebecca Stritchfield (2016) Nutrition Foundations
Body Kindness helps counteract the overriding narrative of “good” and “bad” in our culture’s relationship with eating. In the Nutrition Foundations course (taken by nursing, public health, sonography, radiography, and nutrition majors), students identify nutrient density and food sources in their own diet by recording food intake for nutrient analysis. For some students this assignment can trigger self-judgment. In this course reading, Rebecca Stritchfield suggests tools to foster a positive relationship with food and body image by prioritizing selfcompassion and intuitive eating over restrictive diets. Course discussions help navigate our culture’s mantra of “eating is a performance” with confidence and kindness. By reading Body Kindness in Nutrition Foundations, we strive to build a supportive environment that values self-care and body positivity along with nutrition knowledge.

Touch the Future:
A
by
Manifesto in Essays
John Lee Clark (2023)
Beginning American Sign Language II
Touch the Future is one of the latest books by John Lee Clark, a renowned DeafBlind poet and author from Minnesota. In our ASL classes we explore the diversity within the Deaf* community (*asterisk represents all ways of being deaf), and one area we touch on is the DeafBlind community. This book challenges the cultural narrative of DeafBlind people as helpless and despondent. Instead, he reviews the history of simply removing the interference of nonDeafBlind people, which allows protactile, an inclusive language of touch, to flourish. In his collection of thoughtful but light-hearted essays, our students are challenged to think harder about ways we can move beyond simply allowing people into the room — and rather, make them part of it.

GRADUATING FASHION STUDENTS’ CAPSTONE COLLECTIONS DAZZLED AT THE 2024 KATWALK. BOTTOM RIGHT, LEFT TO RIGHT: CAROL MAGER, ASSISTANT FASHION DESIGN AND MERCHANDISING PROFESSOR, WITH SENIORS LINH STOEBNER ’24, NEVE PALUBICKI ’24, VERONICA WAKEFIELD-YOUNG ’24, AND KIARA GOMES ’24.
Weaving in Sustainability
Katwalk showcases fashion students’ eco-friendly innovations.
Hosted and organized by students of the St. Catherine University Fashion Association, the annual Katwalk f eatures fashion lines created by students in the fashion design and merchandising programs.
On April 27, students presented their senior capstone collections, junior mini-collections, and other creative designs to the St. Kate’s community.
A major emphasis of the event was sustainability, which is integrated into the fashion design and merchandising curriculum at every level. Katwalk included a special sustainability and creative design segment, highlighting an array of environmentally-friendly practices and projects. Surprise guest model President Roloff wore a piece from senior designers’ collaboration with Amy Lamphere, a local apparel business owner whose Storyline Collection focuses on capsule wardrobing. For the project, students used existing “deadstock” to create new designs in a playful and creative recycling of textiles. First-year and second-year students repurposed existing textiles, and upper level students worked to develop zero waste designs using various methods.
“Seeing our senior designers integrate sustainability into their work was particularly fulfilling for me,” said Anupama Pasricha, PhD, dean of the School of Business. “They seamlessly embraced various sustainable practices, making them an integral part of their design thinking without the need to explicitly highlight them. Sustainability was a mainstream principle in their creative processes.”

Making It Possible
From art to athletics to healthcare, grants and sponsorships enrich all aspects of the St. Kate’s experience.
St. Catherine University is fortunate to be the beneficiary of many grants and sponsorships from organizations and businesses invested in the institution’s robust academic and cultural life. Among those supporters is Celeste of St. Paul Hotel and Bar, a 2023–24 leadership sponsor of The O’Shaughnessy.
Like St. Kate’s, Celeste of St. Paul’s history is rooted in the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet (CSJs). The hotel was formerly St. Agatha’s Conservatory of Music and Art, founded by Mother Celestine Howard, CSJ, in 1884 — a connection that made supporting The O’Shaughnessy a natural fit. Celeste of St. Paul aims to honor the C SJs’ work enriching the performance arts of the Twin Cities. “They were a big part of what helped make the culture of arts and music what it is today,” said Todd Byhre, chief operating officer for Rebound Hospitality, who helped oversee branding for the hotel.
That culture of art is alive at St. Kate’s, and was recently enhanced by an anonymous $20,000 gift that created the BIPOC Art Acquisition Fund. An exciting new effort to diversify the University’s Fine Art Collection, the fund is designated for the purchase of artwork by artists of color for the campus. A student advisory group, led by Theo von Weiss ’23, Olivia Jean Bignall ’25, and Eva Ngono ’25, solicited feedback from students and made the final decisions on acquisitions. The student leaders said the project offered a chance for the campus to connect to local BIPOC and queer artists, particularly highlighting work that celebrates and uplifts the communities it represents. “For students, representation is important in order to cultivate feelings of belonging, as well as educational safety,” the three students said. “In addition to our diversity being reflected through faculty and staff, we hope that this project is able to embody our community through physical space and artistic expression.”
Across campus, academic programs are supported and enriched by grants like those from the National Institute on Aging (NIA). Thanks to a $1.98 million grant from NIA, a division of the National Institutes of Health, the University’s Katies for Aging Research and Equity (KARE) program will be funded for another five years. The multi-year research education program was created with a goal of preparing a diverse set of students for careers in aging research, and since 2019 has successfully supported aging-focused education and research for underrepresented women and genderdiverse scholars at St. Kate’s.
Sponsors also make possible the continued success of St. Kate’s athletic teams. The annual fundraising golf tournament draws a range of sponsors whose contributions support student athletes and the athletic department throughout the year. The 2023 tournament attracted over 100 golfers, including sponsors, alumni, and current students.
At another lively community event, support from the Manitou Fund, Ameriprise Financial, and Securian Financial helped Katie Leadership Impact (KLI) bring decorated basketball coach Dawn Staley to The O’Shaughnessy. Sports journalist Lea B. Olsen moderated a discussion with Staley in front of a sold-out crowd. The May event was part of KLI’s Women of Color Leadership Series, which connects students with highprofile leaders from a diverse range of fields. “Representation matters, and hearing from trailblazing BIPOC women expands students’ sense of possibility and leadership aspirations,” said Anupama Pasricha, PhD, dean of the School of Business.

Volunteer Impact Report
Revisiting 2020’s highlighted volunteers, four years later
DULCE OCAMPO ’18
For Dulce Ocampo ’18, staying involved with St. Kate’s as an alum is all about giving back. As a new graduate, she participated in class visits, mock interviews, and panels to share advice and connections with students. Now, though she lives in Chicago, working in sales for Solventum Health, she still finds ways to mentor Katies virtually.
On her time at St. Kate’s:
“Through St. Kate’s connections, I was able to get an internship with 3M in a sales role. That role was great — it opened up a lot of doors for me. It actually got me to my current role.”
On giving back:
“I’m a first-generation college graduate. It was all new territory; my parents had never gone through that. Thinking back to that time of my life, I wish I had had someone that I could ask questions or feel like they were a good resource. I didn’t have that, so I wanted to be that for someone, even if it was at a much smaller scale.”
On advice to new alums:
“Sometimes, we don’t know the impact we’re making on students. It really just takes 30 minutes of your time to help one student and inspire them to go after a job ... I think a lot can be given to students in a little bit of time sharing your knowledge, your experience, or even your failures.”
ELLEN WHITTED ’93
Ellen Whitted ’93 is an alumna whose volunteer work for St. Kate’s has run the gamut over the years. She’s volunteered as a class leader, been a part of the alumni council, mentored students, and participated in simulation labs to help healthcare students gain valuable experience.
On her time at St. Kate’s:
“I just knew it was home. That was where I needed to be … and even though I’m not working specifically in my degree field, I totally attribute St. Kate’s to giving me the tools and the skills and the bravado to do whatever I wanted to do with my career.”
On giving back:
“I’m more than willing to pitch in and help my alma mater. For so long, I was a single mom and I couldn’t really give a whole lot, and so giving my time is one way that I can do that. It keeps me in touch with the school and what’s happening.”
On volunteering in I-SAIL healthcare simulation labs: “To be a leader in the healthcare space, we need to be putting out the best nursing graduates, the best physician assistant graduates. I think that the simulations are exactly what helps them be that way, because they can walk into their first ER or urgent care and be confident that they know what they’re doing.”

St. Catherine University’s largest comprehensive campaign in our history concluded on November 1, 2023, with an extraordinary total of $149,054,963 raised for Our Students, Our Faculty, Our Place, and the Katie Fund.
Over 15,750 members of the St. Catherine community gave in support, and alumni led the charge with over 50% of contributions to the campaign. There is no better indicator of an institution’s impact than the investment of its alumni, and graduates of class years ranging from 1933 to 2023 demonstrated their Katie pride by carrying LEAD & INFLUENCE across the finish line.
Among the campaign’s many achievements are the following highlights:
Since the beginning of LEAD & INFLUENCE , the total number of scholarship recipients increased by 40% and total financial aid dollars given increased by 50% .
The Teaching Hub — a program dedicated to fostering faculty development — was established in 2022 .
Restoration of Our Lady of Victory Chapel will be complete in time for her October 2024 centennial . The large-scale renovation of Mendel will be complete by September 2024 , and the building will be fully open for the fall semester.
Over $18 million was donated to the Katie Fund , which supports financial aid, University programming, emergency support for students, and everything in between.

A Vibrant Culture of Philanthropy
The stories behind St. Kate’s donor support are abundant.
The generosity of our St. Catherine University community is the taproot of our culture of philanthropy. The motivations to give may vary, but supporting students and broadening their opportunities is their shared aim. As we learned in conversations with three donors, it is their individual experiences that continue to nurture their connections to, and support of, the St. Catherine University community. From their stories and acts of generosity grow a new generation of Katies who will continue this act of paying forward.
Dear Friends of St. Catherine University,
As I conclude my four years as chair of the Board of Trustees, I want to express my deepest gratitude for your commitment to our beloved St. Catherine University. Truly you are friends of St. Kate’s, sharing your time, talent, and treasure as friends do with one another. Your gifts enable the University to achieve its mission of educating women to lead and influence, fostering graduates who make a difference in their communities because of their St. Kate’s education. Thank you for making the world a more just place for all to live and thrive through your contributions to our beloved institution.
May you be blessed abundantly for your generosity,
Jean Wincek, CSJ, ’62, EdD
ANGELINA SCHENCK MSW’26
MARLENE SHELSTAD
Education has always been a priority for Marlene Shelstad. “Having a college degree, I just think you gain so much.” While college was not possible for Marlene, she made sure her own children and countless other students could claim their St. Kate’s education. As one of St. Kate’s longest consecutive donors (42 years!), Shelstad attributes her husband Terry’s experience with the GI Bill to inspiring the couple to help others whenever they can — with their time, their talents, and their treasure. Daughters and St. Kate’s alumnae Diane Shelstad Huston ’81 and Jeanne Shelstad VanDyke ’82 also carry forward their parents’ generous philosophy.
LIVIANNA KNISELY MYKLEBUST ’19
Despite the constraints of graduate school, Livianna Knisely Myklebust still makes an intentional practice out of giving, in order to sustain the same feeling of possibility that she experienced as a student: “When I was at St. Kate’s, I felt like anything was possible. We were all cheering each other on; it felt like a very supportive environment. And very safe — a safe place to make mistakes, a safe place to be yourself, but also get good work done. And be proud of that.” Myklebust continues to nurture this same environment as a mentor in Katie Leadership Impact, a program that supports future leaders of color at St. Kate’s.
ANGELINA SCHENCK MSW’26
Paying it forward is important to Angelina Schenck. “I was able to attend St. Kate’s because of the funding I received … and so now that I can give something, it’s important to me to contribute to those funds to give others opportunities.” It’s a tribute to the collaborative, supportive environment that Schenck has found in her social work program, which has “allowed me to see how important that is in other aspects like work environments.” Her first gift, made during Give to Honor Her in gratitude to the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet, had added meaning for her, “honoring important women in my life who have made my journey here possible.”
