“I know the kinds of lives you lead because I’ve watched you live at Le Moyne. I’ve seen your compassion and generosity…I’ve seen your grace and courage, win or lose…I’ve seen your intellect and tenacity challenging the known and wrestling with the unknown…I’ve seen your hope and faith, your laughter, your energy and your optimism, your idealism and humanity in so many different ways and places.” President Linda LeMura




“In these four years, we’ve grown to become the people we were meant to be in this moment. In these four years, we’ve been four different people, each year bettering ourselves one lesson learned at a time. Our growth is eternal and we will continue to grow to be extraordinary people.” Samara Roya Chowdhury


“As you move into a world full of change, I am confident that you have within you strength and courage so that as a Le Moyne alum, you will have a sense of this continuity so that changes in the world are not just random acts, but opportunities for you to build upon on your core.” John Smarrelli, Jr. ’75

“Class of 2025, congratulations to you all. May God bless you, keep in touch with your alma mater, and remember, Be Good. And of course, Phins Up!
