Despite a storm rolling through Milwaukee just before the Tommies On the Road event, alumni and friends showed up ready to connect, learn and celebrate the exciting momentum happening at St. Thomas.
From AI to the future of higher education to the growing impact of Tommies across the country, President Vischer made one thing very clear: our alumni are helping shape what's next. Special thanks to Evan Hughes ’04, Tommie alumnus and owner of the event venue, Central Standard Crafthouse & Kitchen.
