We’re making St. Louis an even better place to live by connecting our region with greenways so you can be active, get around town and just enjoy being outside. Greenways are outdoor spaces connecting people and places. Ours include paved trails where you can take a walk, go for a run or ride a bike, or just explore and enjoy being outside. Our greenways are all different; some go through your neighborhood, getting you where you need to go. Some follow along a river, so you can exercise or just enjoy the outdoors. Others are full of stories of the history of our region! Greenways can hold great events for our community or programs so you can try something new. The long-term vision for the St. Louis region is called the River Ring, where more than 600 miles of trails will connect communities, bike-friendly streets and transit, and our region’s great rivers and parks in a network of greenways. By creating the River Ring, we’re offering one more way for 2 million residents plus visitors to get around, we’re enhancing our economy and we’re conserving natural resources throughout this 1,200 square mile region. (That’s roughly the size of Rhode Island!) Great Rivers Greenway is a regional parks and trails district created by a vote of the people to connect St. Louis City, St. Louis County and St. Charles County.

We believe that a student’s critical awareness of the world and adeptness in oral and written communication provide a lasting basis for professional success and a fulfilling life. By providing solid grounding in English or communication studies, courses in each major develop the skills and perspective that enable students to adapt to change and devise creative solutions to new problems. Optional professional concentrations in broadcasting, journalism, professional writing, public relations, and teacher certification prepare students for specific careers. We also offer internship opportunities and a variety of extracurricular activities. Dynamic classes, a growing number of majors, and the long-term success of our alumni demonstrate the relevance of our programs to a diverse and changing society. Fontbonne students who have majored in English or communication studies have pursued careers in law, advertising, public relations, teaching, business, politics, journalism, and broadcasting.
