As St. Lawrence University celebrated the Class of 2026 during Commencement ceremonies on Sunday, May 17, President Kate Morris encouraged graduates to harness the uniquely human “superpowers” they developed during their time on campus.
The Class of 2026 leaves St. Lawrence with stories of adventure, discovery, leadership, and lifelong connection. Whether conducting research, taking advantage of our new majors, leading student organizations, studying abroad, or creating new traditions, these Laurentians have shaped their own unique paths—and made our community better along the way.
St. Lawrence University was recently honored with the “Summa Cum Laude” award from United Way of Northern New York, which recognizes the University’s “unwavering commitment” and “honors-level leadership” in support of the local community.
For Krissie Bonin ’90, P’22, ’25 and Brad Rauch ’89, P’22, ’25, St. Lawrence University is more than the place where they earned their degrees—it’s where they met, built lifelong friendships, launched careers, and instilled a shared sense of purpose in the next generation. With two of their four children now proud St. Lawrence alumni, and years of consistent giving and volunteerism under their belts, they embody what it means to be Sustaining Saints.
President Morris reflects on how St. Lawrence has put “Laurentians first” values into action.
St. Lawrence alumni have always known the power of the Laurentian network. Now the rest of the country does too.
