March 7, 2015
Six years ago this past Saturday, three bishops, more than two dozen priests, and hundreds of friends of Thomas Aquinas College came to campus for the dedication of Our Lady of the Most Holy Trinity Chapel. As such, and in keeping with Church tradition, March 7 is forevermore a solemnity on campus.
In its March 6 edition, the Ventura County Star led its regional news coverage with a story about the Fritz B. Burns Foundation’s $8.5 million grant for the construction of the College’s forthcoming lecture and concert building, St. Cecilia Hall.
Knights and Dames of Malta from the greater Los Angeles area came to the campus of Thomas Aquinas College on Saturday for a day of reflection on a Lenten theme, “Faith and Suffering.”
Lent, 2015
Dear Friend of Thomas Aquinas College,
On February 2 we celebrated the Feast of the Presentation. We read in Luke’s Gospel that Mary and Joseph, in fulfillment of the law, brought the infant Jesus to the Temple in Jerusalem to present Him to the Lord; and we heard the praise offered to God by Simeon and Anna as they recognized the Messiah. From Simeon’s acclamation of “a light to the Gentiles,” we take the tradition of blessing candles on this feast, and thus we arrive at its alternate name: Candlemas.
Some 32 Catholic executives and their spouses, from across the United States, gathered at the recent Legatus Summit in Naples, Florida, for “On Human Dignity & Religious Freedom,” a seminar hosted by Thomas Aquinas College.
Although workers concluded construction of the College’s newest building, St. Gladys Hall, before the start of the academic year, landscaping of the building’s southern plaza continued throughout the past semester and is now almost complete. A blue-tiled infinity pool, featuring a sunburst — the symbol of the College’s patron, St. Thomas Aquinas — now overlooks the campus athletic fields.
