Mary Kaye Waldron

September 19, 1972 - April 15, 1995

In a corner of Bapst lawn stands a marble bench in memory of Mary Kaye Waldron, a member of the Boston College Class of 1995. Throughout the twenty-two years of her life and the years Mary Kaye attended Boston College, her perseverance in the face of adversity and outstanding spirit inspired all that knew her. Mary Kaye participated in the Salt and Light Company and the Jenk’s Leadership Program and became the first female to receive the Men’s Basketball Power Award, given out by the team annually. Her unyielding sense of friendship, service and compassion in the face of enormous challenges continues to be a beautiful testament to her spirit and the mission of Boston College.
