We can all agree that Saint Anselm College is special. Our community of students, faculty, staff, monks, and alumni come to us with different backgrounds, beliefs, passions and voices. But there is one uncommon character trait that we all share: Each of us is an Anselmian.

Listen to some of the extraordinary voices of Saint Anselm College.


Valerie Diaz

Meet Valerie Diaz — you’ve probably seen her smiling face in Alumni Hall and definitely received many emails with her name on it. That’s because Valerie is the maestro who makes Dr. Favazza’s office run so smoothly. She is the executive assistant to the College President and has lots of interesting connections at Saint Anselm College.  You’ll love to get to know her better by watching our latest Everyday Anselmian video profile! 

Valerie tells us what it’s like working for the head honcho, and some funny stories — including one that will make you literally laugh out loud.
