Online Learning for Alumni

The Moore Lectureship Award was established in 1995 to honor Sister Anne Joachim Moore, the founder and President of St. Mary’s Junior College (1964-1986).  The purpose of the award is to promote an understanding of the connection between social justice and higher education in our community, a view Sister Anne Joachim espoused. Each year the Moore Lectureship award recognizes a faculty or staff member who has demonstrated this commitment to justice through their work at St. Catherine University. These lectures are given during our annual Faculty and Staff workshops and now available here for all alumni!
