For many at the university, Mary was a true example of what it means to be a Viking.

Stephen's life trajectory has taken him many places since graduation as he combats illegal wildlife and endangered species trafficking, reduces forest and biodiversity loss, increases coastal resilience, and more.

Director of Athletics Nicolle “Nicky” Wood ’95 has made it her mission to holistically support the student-athlete experience at Salem State.

When Nate reflects on his nearly four decades at Salem State University, his voice fills with gratitude, saying, “Salem State has given me more than I could ever give in return."

A double Viking and member of the alumni association and foundation board, Nancy is paying it forward.
