A Letter from The President of Aquinas College

 

Dear Parents and Prospective Students:

The “Springtime of the Faith” promoted by Pope John Paul II is taking root, and a growing segment of young people are responding. They are seeking institutions where faith and reason are in harmony, where a life of virtue is encouraged, and where career skills and a liberal arts education combine to provide a foundation for success in the most complete sense of the word.

For 150 years the Dominican Sisters in Nashville, Tennessee, have been true to a tradition that began in 1206 with the personal holiness of Saint Dominic. The order he founded out of love for the Church and zeal for souls is as relevant today as it was in Dominic’s time. 

In response to the growing interest in faithful Catholic education, Aquinas College has plans for expansion that will begin with the building of a 550-seat campus chapel and will follow with other academic buildings and the addition of residence halls.  Until the dormitories are built, the College will continue to assist non-local students to find living accommodations in the area.

We look forward with enthusiasm to this work that God has begun and the opportunity that He has given us to transform lives and culture through truth and charity.

God bless you,

Sister Mary Peter, O.P.
