FORM 990, SCH.

THE SHRINE WAS DEVELOPED AND MAINTAINED FOR THE PAST 100 YEARS BY THE SOCIETY OF SAINT EDMUND, WHO IS ALSO THE FOUNDER OF SAINT MICHAEL'S COLLEGE. THE COLLEGE SHARES A SIMILAR MISSION TO CONTRIBUTE THROUGH HIGHER EDUCATION TO THE ENHANCEMENT OF THE HUMAN PERSON AND THE ADVANCEMENT OF HUMAN CULTURE IN THE LIGHT OF THE CATHOLIC FAITH. THE COLLEGE BENEFITS FROM USE OF THE FACILITIES AT THE SHRINE FOR CURRICULUM ENHANCEMENT, STUDENT AND STAFF RETREATS AND WORSHIP. WOMEN HELPING BATTERED WOMEN THE CONTRIBUTION TO WOMEN HELPING BATTERED WOMEN WAS MADE TO PROVIDE GENERAL SUPPORT TO THEIR BELIEF THAT ALL ADULTS AND CHILDREN HAVE THE RIGHT TO LIVE WITHOUT FEAR OF ABUSE - SEXUAL, PHYSICAL, EMOTIONAL OR FINANCIAL. THEY PROVIDE A 24-HOUR HOTLINE, SHELTER AND HOUSING SERVICES, A LEGAL PROGRAM, SUPPORT GROUPS, EDUCATION AND OUTREACH, CHILDREN'S SERVICES, ECONOMIC JUSTICE AND TRANSITIONAL HOUSING, AND A SAFE AT WORK NETWORK. THE COLLEGE HAS INCORPORATED THIS ORGANIZATION INTO ITS PROGRAMMING IN TWO WAYS IN THE PAST YEAR. THE FIRST IS THROUGH ITS CLOTHESLINE PROJECT-A PROJECT THAT AIMS TO BRING ATTENTION TO SEXUAL VIOLENCE. THE PROJECT PROVIDES A PUBLIC SPACE TO DISPLAY T-SHIRTS WITH MESSAGES OF SURVIVAL OF SEXUAL VIOLENCE, AS WELL AS MESSAGES OF SUPPORT FOR SURVIVORS. THE SECOND IS A CONSENT WORKSHOP ON CAMPUS LED BY AN EDUCATION ADVOCATE FROM WOMEN HELPING BATTERED WOMEN. DURING THE WORKSHOP, THE ADVOCATE DISCUSSED THE IMPORTANCE OF CONSENT, WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE, AND HOW TO NAVIGATE DISCUSSIONS ON CONSENT.

THE THREE TYPES OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE WE EMPLOY INCLUDE GRANTS AND SCHOLARSHIPS, LOANS AND STUDENT EMPLOYMENT. IN 2014-2015, THE COLLEGE ADMINISTERED OVER $58 MILLION IN ASSISTANCE, OF WHICH APPROXIMATELY $39 MILLION WAS PRIMARILY COLLEGE FUNDED AID SCHOLARSHIPS OR GRANTS. THE FIVE YEAR AVERAGE (2010-2014) OF UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS RECEIVING COLLEGE FUNDED AID WAS 94.52%.
