Admitted Students Open House
Admitted Students! Join us on Friday, April 11 for Admitted Student Open House. Meet members of our community, attend real Saint Anselm classes, take a tour of campus, and learn about co-curricular opportunities.
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.

The ancient past can sometimes seem so distant, but it is the responsibility of those who study the past to not only share results of their investigations, but also to do so in a timely and accessible manner. While some archaeological findings are hoarded until final publication due to proprietary concerns (or, sadly, sometimes never published at all), the Poggio Civitate Archaeological Project takes another radical approach: making all raw excavation data publicly and freely available shortly after it has been brought to light.
The Poggio Civitate Archaeological Project does this in partnership with Open Context, a digital publisher and archive of archaeological data. In this talk Prof. Ann Glennie (Classics Department, College of the Holy Cross) will introduce the site of Poggio Civitate, discuss the rationale behind the Project’s use of Open Context, and show how making data available through Open Context can promote accessibility, and thereby, more nuanced and diverse interpretations of the data.
