California Commencement Travel Advisory
A mudslide has shut down both lanes on Highway 150 between the College’s California campus and Santa Paula. Although the California Department of Transportation has begun preparations for clearing the roadway, officials do not expect to finish the work before sometime this summer. Therefore, if you will be traveling to campus from points south, please be sure to give yourself enough time to navigate the detour route, which will take you along Highways 126, 101, and 33. Directions to campus >

Many people who come from Thomas Aquinas College, because of the things that we study, the way that we study, the way … you just bring something unique to the table.

“I am forever grateful to Thomas Aquinas College for … friendships and for its serious pursuit of wisdom through the arts and sciences.
Rev. Reginald Wolford, O.P. (’97)
Four years’ studying Aristotle, and a good start in St. Thomas, have proven invaluable to my subsequent education; but most of all I am thankful that my time at the College led to my conversion to Catholicism and my eventual pursuit of the priesthood.

I’ve been taught how to think about things and analyze things. It’s been a broadening experience. When you’re leading people, and responsible for people, if you can’t look at the big picture and know where you’re going, you’re going to have a big problem.
Michael D. Byrne (’04)
The chronological study of philosophy — especially political philosophy — is invaluable in the political world.
Sr. Mary Josefa of the Eucharist, OSB (’07)
At TAC, I was blessed to be part of a community that was really unified and ordered by its Catholic identity.
