New England

The New England Class of 2026 faced off against the faculty Wednesday for the highly anticipated seniors-versus-tutors softball game, followed by a barbeque, the Senior Thesis draft-burning party, and a late-night snack with the freshmen.

With two weeks of studying and final exams looming ahead, TAC-New England students organized a volleyball tournament last Friday to turn their attention and energy, if only for an afternoon, from the intellectual to the physical.

Bidding farewell to the graduating seniors before their final week at the College, the New England Sophomore Class hosted a charming brunch for the two classes on Sunday.

After morning Mass, the seniors made their way to Olivia Music Hall, where the sophomores waited at the doors to welcome them. It was the perfect spring day, with the main room warmly lit by sunlight streaming in through the tall windows. Pastel garlands and fresh flowers brought the brightness of the season into the room, while tables were loaded with homemade quiche and baked goods.

Last Sunday, students from Thomas More College made the trip to Thomas Aquinas College, New England, for a game of soccer. 

About once per semester, since the early days of the New England campus, the two schools meet in friendly sporting matches, from ultimate frisbee, to basketball, to soccer. After a close defeat in basketball last semester — and the first loss against TMC to date — the TAC team was ready to redeem itself.

Welcoming the spring, the Thomas Aquinas College, New England, Freshman Class organized its first dance for the College last Saturday, bringing a beachy atmosphere with a “Cape Cod” theme.
