The Research Showcase is an annual two-day conference highlighting the scholarly and creative activities of students and faculty, hosted by the University Research Council. As a St. Mary’s alumni, we invite you to serve as a volunteer judge to help mentor and guide our current students. Your experiences are imperative and can make a huge difference by helping our Rattlers gain further confidence and inspiration along their academic journeys.
Requirements:

You will be paired with students based on your preferred research themes/topics according to your interests and area of expertise.

Continuing the Heritage

Continuing the Heritage, a tradition since 1997, has brought together thousands of St. Mary’s University students, employees and alumni to be a part of a day of community service.
Join your fellow Rattlers — past and present — for a day of making a difference together! This is your chance to connect with students while giving back through hands-on service projects throughout San Antonio. It’s a great way to share your St. Mary’s spirit, make new memories and leave a lasting impact alongside the next generation of Rattlers!
In collaboration with the Office of Community Engagement.
