Cabrini College senior Dana Berardi saw firsthand the work it takes to support the President.
Cabrini College senior Dana Berardi spent her fall semester living and working in Washington D.C. as part of the White House internship program. The Political Science, History and American Studies major was an intern in the Office of Scheduling and Advance, which supports the President in his meetings, events and appearances. Berardi told Radnor Patch that she could not go into too many details of what she did “because of the nature of it,” but said that she was in charge of making sure every gift that President Obama received was catalogued and filed, amongst other duties.

Martha Dale was called "a long and shining star."
When the Woodcrest Estate Mansion at Cabrini College in Radnor was named to the National Register of Historic Places in 2009, Wayne resident Martha Dale was one of the people who deserved, and received, recognition.

But when Dale died of cancer on Sept. 24, tributes and profound words were shared about the 35-year Wayne resident. "She had an incredible way about her — she had a very big genuine interest about so much, and made you feel so connected to her by how she listened and responded to what you were thinking or saying. She had a very young spirit; she didn’t seem to let her age dictate her thoughts," said …

A new clay tile roof is almost completed on the mansion of the Radnor campus.
Cabrini College is in the process of replacing the roof of The Mansion, formerly the Woodcrest Mansion, which is the centerpiece of its Radnor campus that was designed by famed Philadelphia architect Horace Trumbauer. The mansion was built between 1901 and 1903, and is named to the National Register of Historic Places. Twenty-five-year-old asphalt shingles needed to be replaced, and the school chose to replace them with clay tiles, said Howard Holden, director of facilities at Cabrini. "We felt it deserved the best roof system we could install," said Holden, who added that the original roofing material may have been slate. About a decade ago the roof on Grace Hall, which was the Woodcrest Estate's stable and carriage house, was replaced …
