Following an extensive, nationwide search, William \u201cBill\u201d Brownsberger, STD, was recently named the 12th president of Saint Martin\u2019s University in Lacey. Officially beginning on July 1st, Dr. Brownsberger brought 23 years of higher education experience and administrative roles at several Catholic institutions in the U.S. and Italy with him.

\u201cI really went out on a limb when I accepted the position because I had only been to the Pacific Northwest one other time, and that wasn\u2019t even in Washington State,\u201d said Brownsberger. But, happily for Dr. Brownsberger and his family, the experience has been a positive one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Brownsberger, \u201cI know people say it rains a lot here, but I can count on one hand how many times it has rained since we moved here.\u201d The Brownsberger family loves being outdoors, whether it is to hike or swim and find the terrain \u201cspectacular with sunshine, trees and the mountains so close to the water.\u201d

Saint Martin\u2019s University is an independent coeducational university, with undergraduate and graduate offerings, located on a wooded campus of more than 380 acres. Established in 1895 by the Catholic Order of Saint Benedict, the University is one of 13 Benedictine colleges and universities in the United States and Canada, and the only one west of the Rocky Mountains.

\u201cSaint Martin\u2019s is a very close community and during my tenure I want to strengthen and refine who we are and showcase why we are a different kind of wonderful institution,\u201d Brownsberger said. \u201cI really believe in what we are doing, and I want to be a part of the team that is making this community continue to thrive.\u201d

With more than 1380 undergraduate and 250 graduate students, St Martin\u2019s also has an extended campus located at Joint Base Lewis-McChord. Students from many ethnic and religious backgrounds attend classes at St. Martin\u2019s to earn one of 31 majors, 11 master\u2019s programs or one doctorate program with seven certificate programs in arts and sciences, business, counseling, education, engineering, nursing, and leadership.
