Meet Our Anselmians
"I believe with all my heart that today’s world needs Saint Anselm College, a place that is infused with the Catholic and Benedictine values of community, hospitality and love, where the humanities, arts and sciences and professional programs like nursing, criminal justice and business build on our liberal arts core rather than compete with it. We need a place where you don’t have to choose between career outcomes and life outcomes. That place is Saint Anselm."
In the classroom and in the community, an Anselmian education will challenge you to find your best self.

FEATURED FACULTY MEMBER
Nicole Gugliucci, Ph.D., Department Chair and Associate Professor, Physics, was featured in the most recent issue of Portraits Magazine's Focus on Faculty.
“Turns out what I like most about science is sharing it with other people. Teaching it, and sharing it with others. … It’s important to me that everyone can feel some connection to science and see that it is understandable, it is reachable, it is even doable.”

L.A. Dance presents “Colors in Motion”. Colors bring life, joy, and meaning to the world around us—they brighten our days, reflect our emotions, and give us a beautiful way to express who we are. This year, we were inspired by the magic of colors and how each shade tells its own unique story, just like each of our dancers. Through every step, twirl, and smile, our students have brought these colors to life in class and on stage. It has truly been a wonderful and fun year filled with growth, laughter, and unforgettable moments. Thank you to all of our amazing dancers and families for making this year so special. We are so grateful to share this colorful journey with you!

Powerful writing has the ability to shape perspectives and drive change. In this dynamic six-week workshop, you will engage in both group and one-on-one sessions in order to immerse yourself in the art of persuasive op-ed and opinion writing. You’ll have an opportunity to learn from nationally recognized experts in writing and editing, including being able to ask questions about your work. Fifteen participants will work directly with Trent Spiner, an editor-in-chief and former national political reporter, in one-on-one sessions designed to help you craft and publish an op-ed on a topic of your choice. This class will be a journey to craft impactful narratives that inspire meaningful action in your community. All classes will be conducted via Zoom.
