"I wasn't even a student here and [this professor] was invested in me. This is something that was lacking at my previous university. I didn’t feel that connection with professors and the campus. I transferred and I am more in love with St. Thomas than I ever was when I first came here." ~ Ally Starks ’25

I transferred to St. Thomas for my sophomore year after feeling a lack of community at my old university. I instantly found my people at St. Thomas who have since changed my life, helped me grow both personally and academically, and made me feel truly supported and seen.
