At Mary Baldwin we say we are “Boldly Baldwin” because we dare to make a difference. We forge a path where hunger for knowledge intersects with a passion for our world. Where confidence is born of challenge, reflection, and rigor. MBC graduates, like the college itself, are capable, confident, and compassionate changemakers.
Our 2009-10 college-wide theme is “Heart.” This word is associated with concepts like courage, passion, generosity, and strength. At Mary Baldwin heart is found in our faculty who combine an immense body of knowledge with an even larger desire to see every student reach her or his full potential. It is found in a community where diversity is celebrated and service learning is embraced. It exists, especially, in our students, whose actions speak volumes. We believe radically in our students.
The human heart brings nutrients and oxygen to every cell. The same is true of a Mary Baldwin education. Knowledge, service, and experience broaden the mind and heart. Spirit and tradition forge unbreakable bonds. Every experience, every milestone, every relationship is like oxygen and energy to your cells. It feeds you, and you thrive.
Absorb all you can. Be Boldly Baldwin. Enjoy each day as a member of this special community with the knowledge that I hold in my heart all best wishes for your happiness and success.
