Aquinas College - Nashville

We were excited to join the The Catholic Business League this morning as they welcomed one of our alumni, Robert Strobel of Parking Management Company (PMC). Robert spoke about the parking business in Nashville, and the impact of his upbringing in the Catholic faith on his work at PMC.

We are pleased to have on campus this week at our Siena Hall Conference Center Totus Tuus missionaries for their trainings for their summer camps.

Sister Jane Dominic Laurel, O.P., S.T.D., Associate Professor of Theology, addressed the topic "How to Discern Your Vocation with Clarity and Peace" at Stanford University on May 13, 2026. A lively seminar discussion followed the next morning. Both events were sponsored by the Thomistic Institute at Stanford University (in the heart of Northern California's Silicon Valley).
