ASSOCIATED STUDENT BODY (ASB) PRESIDENT AND VICE PRESIDENT

Ricky Waite and Maguire Hansel welcome incoming Freshman at the Can’t Wait ’til Next Year dinner with one simple encouragement, “Get involved with one another and all the opportunities available at Cardinal Newman.” Magu ire went on to say, “Put yourself out there and say hi to new people. I said hi to someone in my first class and we became best friends.” Making friends can feel daunting when you’re young. It’s a risk of rejection. But, a safe and caring environment helps mitigate the fear. And allows friendships to blossom.

CAMPUS NEWS AT CARDINAL NEWMAN

CARDINALS

Student Life Center – Coming Spring 2023!

Our contractor, GMH Builders, with guidance from our architects QKA, is busy working on the foundation and site work for our new Student Life Center. The steelwork will begin this summer when we see our new facility “out of the ground.” Keep up-to-date on our campus improvement work by visiting our website for the live-streaming video of the construction! www.CardinalNewman.org/Support/Campus-Updates.

The quality of the student learning experience starts with facilities. Schools are expensive to build and must last a long time. Following the loss of our campus in 2017, our community came together and helped fund its rebuilding. The result is a campus that will serve Cardinal Newman students for decades to come. We offer the most modern classrooms in Santa Rosa and the Student Life Center is next.

100% Paid By Donations and Insurance

The Cardinal Newman Classroom building and Student Life Center and Library were funded without debt or an impact on tuition. About $9 million was donated by individuals and $16 million by foundations. Combined with $8 million in insurance settlements, we raised $33 million for two new buildings. Our community Biblically responded to our needs.

These buildings – the physical plant of Cardinal Newman – are legacy examples of what a community does out of love for its children.

Two-Story Classroom Building

From any angle, our state-of-the-art classrooms look great! The builder just shared the photo to the right with us, and we think it is an inspiring testament to all who contributed to our need! Yet, as beautiful and purposeful as the Classrooms and Student Life Center are, the miracle happens inside. That’s where our faculty members help students transform into remarkable, confident, and capable young adults. Ninety-six percent of our graduates go on to a four-year university.
