## History

### Foundation as a training institution for Marist Brothers

St. Ann's Hermitage, 1905

The Marist Brothers, a Catholic society founded in France by Saint Marcellin Champagnat in 1816, focused on educational work throughout the world.[11] In 1905, members of the order arrived in the Mid-Hudson Valley to establish the first Marist house of studies in the United States. On the east bank of the Hudson River, just north of Poughkeepsie, they purchased property and a house from Thomas McPherson. They named the building and property "Saint Ann's Hermitage", in memory of Champagnat's Hermitage in France,[12] and began training young men for a life of "study, work, prayer and service" (from which the school motto is derived).

Champagnat

In 1908, the Brothers purchased the Edward Bech estate to enable the Hermitage to expand, increasing the size of their property to 150 acres (0.61 km2).[12]

By 1929, the training center at the Hermitage had evolved into the Marist Normal Training School, offering college-level courses under the auspices of Fordham University.[12] The charter for the Marist Normal Training School was obtained by Brother Leo Brouilette.[13] In 1946, the State of New York granted the institution an official four-year college charter under the name Marian College, led by Brother Paul Ambrose Fontaine, FMS. Marian College continued the mission of training Marist Brothers as teachers of the congregation's schools.[14]

From 1947 to 1957, the Brothers began working on the weekends, during summers, and in their spare time to build a gymnasium (the original Marian Hall), Our Lady Seat of Wisdom Chapel, Adrian Hall (which was demolished in 2001), and a residence for the student Brothers (the original Fontaine Hall).[12]

Greystone

The Marist College Library was originally housed on the top floor of Greystone in 1928. In 1945, reference, periodical and work areas took over the second floor as well, and then in 1949, the library also claimed Greystone's lowest level. The library remained in Greystone for 35 years.[12]

In 1958, Marist Brother Linus Richard Foy took charge of the college. At 28, he was the youngest college president in the United States.[15] Two years later, Marian College became Marist College[14] and the mission of the college broadened to include the wider community; lay male students were admitted to pursue degree study. An evening division was also introduced to serve the educational needs of the surrounding communities.

Donnelly Hall

Sheahan Hall, the first residence hall, opened in 1962.[16] It was named for Monsignor J. F. Sheahan (pastor of St. Peter's Church, Poughkeepsie)[16] without whom the Marist Brothers might not have been able to purchase the Bech Estate that now comprises the entire south campus area. It was quickly followed by Leo Hall in 1963 and Champagnat Hall in 1965.[16] They were named for Brother Leo Brouiletter (Provincial of the Marist Brothers, 1921–1930) and Saint Marcellin Champagnat respectively. Donnelly Hall (named for Brother Nilus Donnelly, who supervised construction of the 12 major campus facilities built by the Brothers), a dormitory at the time, was built in 1962 by the brothers themselves.[17]

Women were admitted to the evening division classes in 1966, then to the day classes in 1968.[17] Marist's president, Brother Linus Foy, resigned from the Marist Brothers around this time but continued serving as president. Benoit House and Gregory House were erected in 1968 as a residence for the Marist Brothers living on campus. Benoit House honored the memory of Brother Francis Xavier Benoit who taught at Marist for nineteen years, while serving also as Director of Construction for the Marist Brothers.[18] Gregory House was named in memory of Brother Joseph Gregory Marchessault who was chairman of the Physics Department at Marist at the time of his death in 1969.[18] Benoit and Gregory Houses became African American and Free University centers, respectively, during the sixties and seventies. They functioned as residences before being removed to make way for the Hancock Technology Center in 2009.

In 1969, due to the institution's rapid expansion and laws regulating federal aid to religiously affiliated educational institutions in New York State,[19][20] ownership of the college was transferred from the Marist Brothers to the Marist College Educational Corporation with an independent, predominantly lay board of trustees.[14]

In the 1970s, programs for the educationally disadvantaged were expanded, a computer center was added, graduate programs in business administration and community psychology were instituted, and the James J. McCann Recreation Center was completed.[18]

In 1973, President Foy began a cooperative program with area secondary schools, in which selected high school seniors would take freshman courses and "bridge" into college. In fall 1974, the college expanded its commitment to continuing education by increasing course offerings in the evening division and summer session and in 1984, opened an off-campus extension center in Fishkill; A second extension center was opened in the Orange County town of Goshen in fall 1993.

The burgeoning library, then known as The Spellman Library, was moved from Greystone to Donnelly Hall, in the area now occupied by the Computer Center and DN256, in 1963. Space constraints required moving the library again to Fontaine Hall in 1975.

On February 18, 1975, freshman Shelley Sperling was shot and killed in the dining hall by her ex-boyfriend, Louis Acevedo.[21]

### Modern day

In 1979, 39-year-old Dennis J. Murray was selected to be Marist's president.[22] Under his leadership, enrollment more than doubled and the Poughkeepsie campus expanded to its current size of 180 acres (0.73 km2). Every building on campus was renovated or newly constructed and numerous strategic partnerships were formed.

One of the first strategic partnerships was formed with IBM, a major employer in the Mid-Hudson Valley. In 1984, Marist received $2.5 million in equipment and almost $2 million in software from IBM to expand academic and administrative uses of computers on campus.[23]

One of the first construction projects was the Foy Townhouses, named after Linus Richard Foy, completed in 1982.[16] Marian Hall was built in 1983 within and around the college's first gymnasium.[18] It incorporates the first building to be constructed through the manual labor of the Brothers (1947). Because it is located adjacent to the spot where the Marian building (the college's principal classroom building) once stood, it carries on the name of that building as well as the original of the four-year college.

To expand student housing, Gartland Commons was built on the north end of the campus in 1985.[24] It was an apartment community, housing approximately 300 students. It was torn down in 2015.

Lowell Thomas Communications Center

In 1987, the Lowell Thomas Communications Center opened,[25] providing space for communications, math, and computer science studies. The building was built over the site of an outdoor swimming pool from the early days of Marist that was fed by a natural spring.

In 1990, the Margaret M and Charles H Dyson Center opened, providing a home for the School of Management, School of Social and Behavioral Sciences, and School of Graduate and Continuing Education.[18]

Construction continued in 1994 with a $27 million Student Center, bookstore, dining facilities, art gallery, and a new adjoining dormitory (Midrise Hall)[18] In 1996, Talmadge Court was purchased by the college as an official student residence.

In 1997 the college purchased a private residence, St. Ann's, which is part of the area now known as Fern Tor, located on the college's northern boundary. It is named after the original St. Ann's Hermitage which burned to the ground in 1958.[26]

In 1998, across neighboring Route 9, the Lower West Cedar townhouses were built[16] and the former Poughkeepsie Steel Plant was purchased to temporarily house the library while the original Fontaine Hall was razed and a new library constructed in its place. The Poughkeepsie Steel Plant is now the home of the fine arts program and includes a 3,200-square-foot (300 m2) art gallery. The Art Gallery retains the industrial look of the former steel plant with concrete floors and exposed 15-foot ceilings.[27]

James A. Cannavino Library

Completed in 1999 and built out of fieldstone with a concentrated focus on technology, the 83,000-square-foot (7,700 m2) James A. Cannavino Library is considered to be the jewel and the heart of the main campus. Architecturally, the library unifies the college's historic district of Greystone, St. Peter's, and the Kieran Gatehouse, three 1860s-era buildings that are listed on the New York State and National Register of Historic Places,[18] which are also made of fieldstone. The library is named for James A. Cannavino, a long-time member of the Marist Board of Trustees.[28]

Fontaine Hall

A new Fontaine Hall was completed on the north end of campus in 2000 to replace the original building that was razed in 1998.[29] The building holds four classrooms, a multimedia "black box" theatre and two conference rooms, including the striking Henry Hudson Room – a large conference space with skylights and a beautiful view of the Hudson. It also holds The School of Liberal Arts offices and faculty, the Office of College Advancement, which includes the offices of Public Affairs and Alumni Affairs.

With student enrollment increasing and a lack of housing for upperclassmen, the school purchased additional land across Route 9 for expansion. Upper West Cedar, built in 2000, was constructed in a similar style to the Lower West Cedar Townhouses. The Upper Fulton Townhouses followed in 2004 and then the Lower Fulton Townhouses in 2008.[16] These housing areas are connected by a central walkway that leads to the main campus. Also, the Upper Fulton Townhouses were featured on Good Morning America in 2007 for a report on how some colleges and universities were building nicer dormitories to attract more students.[30] The housing expansion was a sore point with the Poughkeepsie residents, who blamed the college for excessive traffic on the Route 9 corridor. The New York State Department of Transportation and Marist College both blame massively increasing population in the Mid-Hudson Valley, a result of the migration of the residents of nearby New York City starting in late 2001. In May 2007, Marist was granted a variance allowing them to build despite a moratorium on new construction in the area.[31]

Natural Sciences & Allied Health building

Marist's independence was emphasized in 2003, when Marist invited New York State Attorney General Eliot Spitzer to deliver the commencement address for the graduating class, incurring protests due to Spitzer's public support of abortion rights. In response to complaints, then-president Murray assured the Archdiocese of New York that "Marist College is truly independent, and does not identify itself as a Catholic college in any way." (Although Marist had become independent in 1969, under Pope John Paul II's decree Ex Corde Ecclesiae, all colleges that claimed to be Catholic prior to 1991 were considered by the church to be Catholic until declared otherwise by a bishop.[32]) Subsequently, Cardinal Edward Egan stated that Marist "is no longer a Catholic institution" and therefore not under the Church's jurisdiction.[33]

The institution's Longview Park was completed in 2007 with a bike/walk path along the Hudson's shore, a fishing pier, the renovation of the historic Cornell boathouse, and better access to scenic vistas, particularly from the gazebo built on a promontory in the center of the park.[34]

In September 2009 Marist was bequeathed $75 million by the industrialist Raymond A. Rich.[35] The donation consisted of the 60-acre (240,000 m2) Col. Oliver Hazard Payne Estate located in the Ulster County town of Esopus plus $10 million. The 42,000 square feet (3,900 m2) mansion was designed by Carrère and Hastings, who also designed the New York Public Library Main Branch. The donation was used to establish the Raymond A. Rich Leadership Institute, which has since been focusing on teaching students the communication, interpersonal, and social skills necessary to lead complex organizations in a global setting.[35] The gift was the twelfth largest donation in America in 2009.[36]

Hancock Center

In spring 2011, Marist completed construction of a new technology building, the Hancock Center,[37] which is on the main campus where the Benoit and Gregory (residence houses) used to stand. The 57,000-square-foot (5,300 m2) building is designed in a Gothic architecture style by the firm of Robert A. M. Stern.[38] It comprises three computer labs, Marist Institute for Public Opinion, nine classrooms, six seminar rooms and a trading room for the business school.[39]

During summer 2011, the New York State Department of Transportation completed a pedestrian underpass under US 9 to facilitate safer movement between the sections of campus, which the boulevard separates.[40] Its construction eliminated a pedestrian-only traffic signal. In addition, one entrance near the Lowell Thomas Communication Center was closed to vehicular traffic. All three entrances were renovated and the main gate closed to vehicular traffic.[41]

Steel Plant building

In the fall of 2013 construction of a new academic building to house the Music Department[42] and renovations to the Lowell Thomas Communications Center, the student center and the dining hall were completed.[43][44]

During the winter of 2015 a new science building was completed on the east campus.[45]

In January 2018 construction of 4 new student housing buildings on the north side of the main campus was completed.[46][47][48][49]

In September 2018 Marist announced that it will partner with Nuvance Health (formerly Health Quest) to create a medical school. Plans call for the construction of a 100,000 square foot (9,300 m2) building on the Vassar Brothers Medical Center campus in the City of Poughkeepsie, which will house school administration and classroom space.[50] The proposed school will be named the Marist Nuvance School of Medicine.[51] Plans for the medical school have since been put on hold indefinitely.[52]

In January 2019 a major renovation and addition to the Steel Plant was completed. The new building features the renovated original 12,000-square-foot historic industrial Steel Plant Building and a 35,000-square-foot addition housing the Fine Arts, Digital Media, and Fashion Programs.[53]

In October 2021, Kevin Weinman became the institution's fifth president.[54]

In July 2022, Marist broke ground on a major renovation and addition to the Dyson Center.[55] The new four-story, 107,000-square-foot building will house The School of Management and School of Social and Behavioral Sciences.[56]

## Campuses

Gazebo at Longview Park

The main campus, with an area of 180 acres (0.73 km2), is on the east bank of the Hudson River in the town of Poughkeepsie, New York, on US 9 in the historic Hudson Valley; it was a census-designated place in 2019.[58] The part of the main campus east of US 9 is called the east campus. In addition to the main campus Marist owns the Payne Estate which has 60 acres (0.24 km2) on the west bank of the Hudson River in the town of Esopus, in Ulster County, the 18,000 square foot (1,700 m2) Marist Executive Center encompassing the 14th floor of 420 Fifth Avenue in midtown Manhattan[59] and a branch campus in Florence Italy. In 2004, Marist announced its Campus Master Plan, which called for the development of a pedestrian-friendly campus heart, with plenty of open and inviting green spaces for interaction. The creation of this campus heart involved the connection of the east and west campuses, the continued improvement of academic and recreational spaces, the addition of green space, and the relocation of parking to the periphery.[60] The master plan is still being implemented, but the progress to date has created what many consider one of the more beautiful campuses in the Northeastern United States.

The area around the campus first appeared as a census-designated place (CDP) in the 2020 U.S. Census,[61] with a population of 2,894.[62]

### Branch campus in Florence, Italy

The Lorenzo de' Medici School campus consists of ten buildings totaling 4,800 square meters (52,000 sq ft), in the historic San Lorenzo district of the Florence city center. The main building, situated in Via Faenza, dates back to the 13th century and originated as a convent connected to a medieval church, San Jacopo in Campo Corbolini. This church, now deconsecrated, was founded in 1206 and for its first hundred years belonged to the Knights Templar. The facilities include studio space, lecture classrooms, and design workshops. Marist offers two housing options to its students: dedicated Marist residences and apartments that are located through the city.[63]

### Payne Estate

### Executive Center

The Marist Executive Center encompasses the entire 14th floor of 420 Fifth Avenue in midtown Manhattan.[64] The New York City location, 18,000 square foot (1,700 m2), functions as a central location for academic offerings for graduate, adult, undergraduate, and corporate programs. Additionally, it serves as a featured location for prominent events such as the Marist Fashion Program's ongoing involvement with New York Fashion Week, programs featuring the nationally recognized Marist Poll, seminars and lecture series, receptions, and alumni networking events.[65]

## Residential life

Marist has standard dormitory buildings for all freshman students. There are townhouse and apartment facilities for upperclassmen. Freshman housing consists of four hall-style dormitories: Marian Hall, housing 100 students; Sheahan Hall, housing 140 students; Leo Hall, housing 300 students; and Champagnat Hall, housing over 400 students.[16] Housing is guaranteed for freshmen and sophomores, but not for juniors and seniors. There is enough housing to hold a large portion of the upperclassmen. Townhouses, most of which were built within the last fifteen years, and the four north end residence halls make up all of the housing available for upperclassmen. Additionally, the Upper Fulton townhouses were featured on Good Morning America for a story on how some colleges and universities are constructing nicer student housing to attract more students.[66] In Fulton housing students all have their own room; there are eight students in one townhouse with two bathrooms and a large kitchen and living area.[67]

The main dining hall atrium John and Nancy O'Shea Hall

All underclassmen live on the west side of Route 9, which is the main part of campus. Upperclassmen reside on the east side of Route 9, which is also considered the "wet side" of campus because the consumption of alcohol is allowed for students over the age of 21. Upperclassmen also reside in the north end residence halls on the main campus.[68] While all incoming freshmen are assigned to a dorm, the housing for other classes is determined via a points system. Under the priority points system, students accumulate a certain number of points from clubs, sports, and grade point average. The students with the highest points are allowed to choose housing first, thus filling the nicer housing first. The students with the lower points choose last and are not always guaranteed housing. If students are entering as a group, the students' points are averaged together. According to Marist, this system promotes student activity in clubs and sports and offers an incentive to keep a high GPA.[69]

### Dining

There are many on campus dining options available to students and visitors. In addition to the Main Dining Hall, located in the Murray Student Center, there are eateries located throughout the main and east side campuses. They are North End Dining located in McCormick Hall, The Cabaret located in the Murray Student Center, the Marketplace in Upper West Cedar and McCann Cafe in the McCann Center.[70]

## Academics

Marist College offers 47 Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degrees, 11 master's degrees, and 2 certificate programs.[2] These programs are divided between the six undergraduate schools and the School of Global and Professional Programs. The undergraduate schools are The School of Communication and the Arts, The School of Computer Science and Mathematics, The School of Liberal Arts, The School of Management, The School of Science and The School of Social and Behavioral Sciences.[71]

All undergraduate Marist students must take what is known as "core" classes during their four years in order to graduate. There are a number of different 3-credit core classes students can take, usually consisting of writing, history, cultural diversity, and a philosophy class. The requirements are the same for all majors and emphasize Marist's tradition of a liberal arts education while ensuring that students are introduced to a broad range of disciplines.[72] The student-faculty ratio at Marist is 16:1, and the school has over 50 percent of its classes with fewer than 20 students. The average freshman retention rate is 88.8 percent.[73]

Undergraduate admission to Marist is selective.[74] The incoming 2026 freshman class had 49% of the 11,260 applicants accepted.[75] The middle 50% of admitted students scored between 1220 and 1350 on the Math and Evidence-Based Reading and Writing sections of the SAT. The middle 50% of accepted students scored between 26 and 30 on the ACT. The middle 50% of accepted students took between 2 and 6 AP Courses.[76]

### Accreditations

Marist College is accredited by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education.[77] Specifically accredited programs include:

* The School of Management is accredited for its Business program by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB International).[78]
* The Athletic Training program is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education (CAATE).[79]
* The Medical Technology program is accredited by the National Accrediting Agency for Clinical Laboratory Sciences (NAACLS).[80]
* The Social Work bachelors completion program is accredited by the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE).[81]

### IBM partnership

Marist also has had a longstanding partnership with IBM.[82] IBM tests concepts and applications in education, business and communication. The joint study began in 1988 with the installation of a $10 million IBM 3090 mainframe computer on campus. In the fall 2002 semester, the institution installed a new zSeries 900 mainframe that provides a level of computing power ordinarily associated with large research universities and Fortune 500 companies. In 2009, Marist and IBM began three research projects involving grid computing, e-learning applications and computing on demand.[23] In December 2011 it was announced that Marist and IBM are also working towards developing a "cloud computing" center to be housed at Marist's Hancock Center.[83] In early 2012 the School of Computer Science and Mathematics installed two IBM z114 mainframes with a zEnterprise BladeCenter Extension (zBX) making Marist the first college or university in the world to have this combination.[84] The project has since been named The IBM SmartCloud solution at Marist College.[85] In October 2019 Marist installed the world's first IBM LinuxONE III, a secured enterprise platform for mission-critical applications and sensitive data for hybrid cloud.[86]

With over 1,000 members, the Campus Ministry is the largest of the Marist student organizations and is operated by the Marist Brothers who reside on campus. The Ministry sponsors retreats, community service and spirit-building programs while maintaining Marist's Judeo-Christian roots and the heritage of the Marist Brothers. The Ministry strives to foster a culture of faith for the institution and the surrounding Poughkeepsie community by building and nourishing hospitality, prayer, service and education.[113]

### Student government

The Marist College Student Government Association is made up of three branches: the Executive Board, the Student Senate, and the Student Judicial Board.[114]

### Community work

Several Marist student groups are actively involved with several local and national charities. Habitat for Humanity has a very active Marist College Chapter in which students volunteer for local and national fundraising, building and education projects.[115] Other charitable causes sponsored by MCSGA are St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, Relay for Life and Fox P.A.W. (People for Animal Welfare), which is dedicated to raising awareness about the mistreatment of animals in the surrounding community in conjunction with the Dutchess ASPCA.[116]

A Marist tradition conducted by Campus Ministry is the Giving Tree Program. At the beginning of each holiday season Christmas trees in campus buildings are decorated with color-coded ornaments designating different gift categories needed by local families. Each ornament is tagged with an item corresponding to its category. Marist community members remove a tag from an ornament then purchase and wrap the present while attaching the corresponding ornament tag. The presents will be brought to Marist's Our Lady Seat of Wisdom Chapel for the students' annual Christmas liturgy. Run by the institution's Campus Ministry, the Giving Tree has sponsored 515 families and donated 16,000 gifts since its inception in 1991, providing presents ranging from winter clothing and household necessities to toys, games and more.[117]

Marist College has also donated computing time on its computers to assist World Community Grid. To date they have donated over 30,000 years of computing time.[118]

Most of the programs compete in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC); with the only exception being football, a member of the Pioneer Football League (PFL). Separate men's and women's teams are sponsored for basketball, tennis, crew, lacrosse, soccer, cross country, track, swimming and diving. Sponsored women's teams are softball, volleyball, and water polo, while sponsored men's teams are baseball and football. These varsity programs involve more than 550 Marist student-athletes.
