Together We Rise will bring to life the bold and ambitious goals laid out in Merrimack’s Agenda for the Future. With your help, we will raise $100 million to enable our institution to innovate, grow, serve and win for years to come.
Our institution has limitless potential to drive groundbreaking innovation. That’s why we aim to increase research investments, attract research-focused faculty members and students, and build state-of-the-art research facilities. LET'S INNOVATE
We will strategically invest in the student experience and expand our academic offerings—advancing real-world, hands-on learning, creating innovative ways to consume education and offering wraparound support services. LET'S GROW
Guided by our Catholic Augustinian values, we will open our college to more underrepresented students, invest in civic and community engagement initiatives, and expand service-learning and off-campus opportunities. LET'S SERVE
Together, we will strengthen the Warrior community, enhancing and expanding our athletics facilities, growing The Warrior Fund, and fielding top student-athletes and coaches from across the nation. LET'S WIN
“Together, we will claim our place among the nation’s top Catholic colleges, cement our reputation as a leading research institution and act boldly and collaboratively to make an indelible mark on our campus, our community and the world at large.”
“At Merrimack, we have been blessed with a community of change agents who are willing to be more than bystanders. These individuals, families, corporations and foundations step up again and again as champions of our Catholic Augustinian mission.”

Future scientists who will make groundbreaking discoveries in the life sciences are already honing their skills at Merrimack thanks in part to a $750,000 grant from the Massachusetts Life Sciences Center (MLSC). The grant will give undergraduate students valuable research experience and also help to accelerate the College`s pursuit of R2 classification as well as its commitment to enhancing faculty research and making a more significant impact in society.
Last week, the Merrimack community was joined by MLSC`s leadership, as well as government officials, at an event in Palmisano Hall, home of the College`s life sciences research endeavors.

Each year, the St. Augustine Medal is presented to a Merrimack community member who embodies the College’s mission to enlighten minds, engage hearts and empower lives. This year, the College had the privilege of awarding the 2024 St. Augustine Medal to Fr. Gary McCloskey, O.S.A.!
Throughout his career, Fr. McCloskey served Merrimack well, from devoted trustee to academic vice president and dean of the College. His commitment to education and service to others is a hallmark of his vocation. Additionally, his scholarly work on Augustinian pedagogy has made him one of the leading scholars in the field.
Congratulations, Fr. McCloskey! Thank you for your continued support and impact on the College, our students and the community.
