In 1910, Abbot Ernest Helmstetter, O.S.B., succeeded Abbot Hilary and embarked upon expanding the college. Under the leadership of eight more presidents until the present day, the college has continued in its mission to provide a strong education in the liberal arts, grounded in the Benedictine intellectual tradition. Its approach to education has ever been guided by the spirit of its patron saint, Saint Anselm of Canterbury, who was a scholar and teacher. Anselm believed in the importance of educating the young for life, and not to master a particular subject area.

Throughout its nearly 125 years, the college has built upon the work of its founders, overcoming many challenges including the lean years of the Great Depression and WWII.

Dear Friends,

oday marks an historic moment for Saint Anselm College. The surrounding community has seen a modest college on the hilltop EORVVRP�LQWR�RQH�RI�WKH�ßQHVW�OLEHUDO�DUWV�FROOHJHV�LQ�WKH�FRXQWU\���:H�IHHO�blessed to have become part of the Benedictine life, culture and devotion that has guided the college from its founding, and we look forward to KHOSLQJ�WR�OLJKW�D�SDWK�WRZDUGV�D�IDLWK�ßOOHG�IXWXUH�

The wonderful celebrations that have taken place this past week were the fruit of much hard work and dedication on the part of many people. Our thanks go to all the faculty, staff and students involved in making these inaugural festivities a wonderful celebration of what it means to be an Anselmian. I give special thanks to the inauguration steering committee led by chair, Fr. Augustine Kelly, O.S.B. The individual names of all those who assisted him are too numerous to mention here, but be assured that their vision, attention to detail, and relentless energy KDYH�UHVXOWHG�LQ�D�FHOHEUDWLRQ�����\HDUV�LQ�WKH�PDNLQJ���

Special thanks to each and every member of the Saint Anselm Community for your well wishes and, most of all, your prayers. We celebrate with you today knowing that we walk together into tomorrow, holding true the blessings of Saint Anselm.

May God continue to bless each of you and our new home, Saint Anselm College.

In deep appreciation,

Eileen & Steven DiSalvo
