Mary Nolte '13

Mary Nolte 100 x 150Hello from Dickinson! As an alumna of the class of 2013, former Red Devil assistant coach and current member of the admissions team, I am proud to call Dickinson “home.” As your regional counselor, it is my goal to help you explore whether Dickinson may be the right fit for you, too!

As a student at Dickinson, I majored in English and education, spent a semester abroad in England, and competed on the cross country and track & field teams. I was also a member of the Kappa Delta Pi honor society in education, which helped prepare me for my first job after I graduated: teaching English right here in Carlisle! I couldn’t stay away from Dickinson, though, and I soon returned to the college—first for a few years as an assistant coach and now as a member of the admissions team.

In my current role as an admissions associate and athletic liaison, I have the great pleasure of working with students from the eastern shore of Maryland, southern New Jersey and the Philadelphia area, as well as helping student-athletes through the recruitment process. One of my favorite parts of being a teacher, coach and admissions counselor has been connecting with students and their families, and I look forward to getting to know you as you continue with your college search!

FUN FACTS

Favorite spot on campus: Biddle Field track at sunrise. Worth getting up for the early workout ... most of the time! :)

Favorite place in town: Whistlestop Bookshop. Professor Wendy Moffat, my English advisor, sent me there for a book on my first day at Dickinson, and I've been going ever since! It’s an easy walk from campus, there’s great selection of books and the owner (Jeff Wood ’85) and his staff are the best!

Favorite Dickinson course: Hmm ... so many choices! I'd have to go with a tie between: Ideas That Have Shaped the World (my first-year seminar course) and U.S. Literature and the 9/11 Decade (which inspired my work on my senior thesis). If I could take a course that is currently being offered, it would be Social Media, Social Movements and Global Change—sounds fascinating and useful!

Ask me about: English, education, athletics, study abroad, community service ... and more!

Please feel free to contact me at noltem@dickinson.edu with any questions you have or if I can be helpful in any way. I look forward to hearing from you!

 All the best,
