/* /*]]>*/ I don’t have anything good to which Thomas Aquinas College is not, in some way, instrumental. It has made all the difference for me.
/* /*]]>*/ I have been shocked at how much, in conversations and in my writing, I’ve been able to draw back on my experience from the College. It has been a tremendous help.
/* /*]]>*/ When I was at the College the seed of my vocation was slowly nurtured and watered by the friendships, by the sacraments, by being introduced to a life of prayer.
/* /*]]>*/ At the College, in addition to being strengthened by the Faith and the classical curriculum, I learned the skill of listening, and the skill of analysis, and I learned about collaboration, partnership, negotiation, and presentation.
Here, things are slower, so you are able to think more deeply and pray more.

/* /*]]>*/ In my intellectual formation, Thomas Aquinas College is the sine qua non from which all else follows.
