The Minnesota State Grant program is crucial for higher education in Minnesota because nearly half of all undergraduate Minnesota residents attending college in our state receive the State Grant — including Saint Mary’s students.  State Grants help students from low- and moderate-income families pay for educational expenses at eligible Minnesota colleges or universities.  That’s why your legislators need to hear from our students about the importance of the State Grant program for themselves and their classmates!

Saint Mary’s University of Minnesota and the Minnesota Private College Council invite you to write a short note to your legislator to help ensure you and future generations of students continue to receive this crucial support. Join us for the Saint Mary’s Thank You Notes to Legislators event!

DATE: January 10, 2023
TIME: 10:30 a.m. – 1:30 p.m.
LOCATION:  Lower Level, Toner Student Center
HOW: All you have to do is stop by! We’ll take care of the rest including providing you with writing prompts, supplies, and more.

Writing a note to your legislator takes just a few minutes but has a positive, lasting impact! We hope you’ll consider joining us for this important event.
