ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø Community Highlights

Students

Sophomore Sarah Kimani grew up wanting to be a nurse. Through a course offered by St. Thomas Aquinas High School in Overland Park, Kansas, in partnership with ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø, she learned more about the options available in nursing and get a feel for what nursing education would be like. 

Faculty

Yu Liu, Ph.D., associate professor of chemistry, knows that organic chemistry has a bit of a reputation. Despite being the face of what many consider ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏ꿉۪s most difficult class, Liu was named Faculty of the Year by students in 2024.

Alumni

The shouts of "Habemus Papam!" broke out as soon as the white smoke appeared from the chimney, visible to the massive crowd gathered to witness the papal conclave at ground zero in St. Peter’s Square in Vatican City. Among them was Sister Allison Vink, ’18.
