At Le Moyne, we emphasize the importance of cura personalis, or total mental, physical, and spiritual care. It is extremely important to take care of your whole self and commit to self-improvement.    Here are some tips that have helped me in the past to have a good school year:   TRY to avoid procrastination. As a college student, I've discovered that we get so caught up in other things that we lose sight of our priorities and postpone them until later! Procr...

Since its establishment in 2020, Le Moyne’s Model EU has provided students with the opportunity to immerse themselves in the history of the nearly 30-year-old political and economic union as they have represented Greece, Cyprus and Slovakia.They've refined their ability to debate, negotiate and work effectively as part of a team. It's not always easy, but with each experience, these students are learning to merge persistence and confidence and grace and diplomacy.

As an athlete, I have it drilled into me that I am a student before I am an athlete (hence the title student-athlete). It is important to recognize, moreover, that before anyone is a student, they are a person. Our Jesuit value, 'cura personalis,' perfectly explains why mental health is important. We must care for the mind, the body, and the spirit - and in order to care for one aspect, you must pay special attention to all three. We also cannot create the community leaders that Le Moyn...

The College's Ed.D. Program in Executive Leadership draws leaders in the fields of education, health care and business, at all stages of their careers, who are self-aware, who observe the world around them carefully, and who are nimble in the face of forces beyond their control. The most recent cohort, at nine strong, is all female, a first in the history of the program. Together they are pursuing an education that Myers hopes will nurture them throughout their careers, whether in classroom, exa...

Visitors to the Madden School of Business invariably find their eyes falling on a large Stock Market ticker in the School’s lobby, its gleaming green and red digits signaling in real time whether a stock’s value is rising or falling. As they look around, these guests might also notice small groups of serious-looking people huddled together, energetically debating whether to buy a stock. They are not sock brokers or hedge-fund managers, but students working for the Dolphin Green and Gold Fund.

As a high school student in Hamburg, Pa., Ashley Lojko ’22 enjoyed tackling difficult problems in her math and physics classes, but nothing filled her with a greater sense of accomplishment than when she solved a challenging chemistry puzzle. She’d found her calling. Today Lojko is a chemistry major at Le Moyne College, where she is working in a lab run by Assistant Professor of Chemistry Emily Harcourt, Ph.D., as part of the Clare Booth Luce Research Scholars Program.

Bryanna Howes ’23 was a curious child, the kind who enjoyed looking through microscopes, exploring new places and asking the adults in her life how things worked. Howes was fascinated by the world around her. That sense of wonder grew with her into adulthood. And since research has been called “formalized curiosity,” it is no surprise that Howes, now a chemistry major at Le Moyne, can often be found conducting research in the lab of Associate Professor of Chemistry Anna O'Brien, Ph.D.
