LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT: SPRING 2019

LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT: SPRING 2019

Dear Friends,

The Digital Transformation Age is upon us. We see it each and every day in how we access entertainment, how we collect information and how we purchase products and services. It is also front and center in how we educate our students, and Maryville is using all of its talent, skill and innovation to harness the digital tools of today to prepare our students for rich and rewarding life experiences.

From our recognition as an Apple Distinguished School for an unprecedented second consecutive time to our new and expansive online degree programs to our St. Louis American Award for Corporate Diversity to our profound commitment to student learning and living in the digital age, Maryville is leading a revolution in higher education.

In this issue, you will read about the amazing journey of one of our service heroes who found educational fulfillment at Maryville through our robust academic programs and a veteran’s support network. You will see how — through the awesome power of social media — our students are experiencing innovative ways of thinking and being. And you will also explore our Active Learning Ecosystem that uses digital tools to understand how to design interior spaces, how to bowl a strike and how to connect with classmates around the world.

At Maryville, we educate thousands of 18- to 22-years-olds, we educate thousands of working adults and we also support K–12 schools with life coaching, learning diagnostics and STEM education programs.

We live in a Digital Transformation Age of ideation, creation, design and entrepreneurship. At Maryville, we support, guide and nurture all of these elements to provide our students with the tools and understanding they need to shape their lives, build their families and make a better and more just world.

It is truly a time of wonder, hard work, adaptation, achievement and success. I could not be more proud of our faculty for leading this effort; our outstanding life coaches and learning designers who work tirelessly to help facilitate this work; and, of course, our students. I also want to salute all of you for your support, good counsel and faith in the power and vibrancy of a Maryville education.

With best wishes,

Mark Lombardi, PhD
