About Mount Saint Mary College:

Mount St. Mary’s University is a private, liberal arts, Catholic university in the Catoctin Mountains near Emmitsburg, Maryland. It was founded by French émigré Father John Dubois in 1808 and is the oldest independent Catholic college in the United States. (It is the second oldest Catholic college in the United States, after Georgetown, which is run by the Jesuits.) It is considered to be one of the best private schools in the state of Maryland and one of the best Catholic universities in the United States according to Princeton Review.[1] The school became co-educational in 1972. In addition to its undergraduate school, the university includes five graduate programs, including a seminary. Dr. Thomas Powell is the University’s current president; the seminary’s rector and president is the former vicar general of the Catholic Diocese of Peoria, Illinois, Stephen P. Rohlfs. The former rector and president, Kevin C. Rhoades, is now the Bishop of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. The chancellor of the seminary is the former Archbishop of Baltimore, Maryland: William Henry Cardinal Keeler.
