At St. Thomas, academic excellence means more than earning a degree. It's about student formation: intellectual, moral and spiritual. We help students discover their purpose, develop their gifts and prepare to lead lives of meaning and impact.
Our commitment to whole-person education comes to life through faculty mentors, transformative classroom experiences and hands-on learning that connects knowledge with action. Students are challenged and supported as they discover who they are, what they believe and how they can contribute.
Investments in faculty help St. Thomas attract and retain exceptional educators who inspire students, advance knowledge and bring new ideas into the classroom. Their influence reaches far beyond a single course or semester, shaping how generations of Tommies think, lead and serve throughout their lives.
Endowed chairs and professorships provide lasting resources to attract and retain exceptional faculty, advance scholarship and create new opportunities for teaching and mentorship. By establishing an endowed position, you help give outstanding educators the support to deepen their impact in the classroom and beyond. Contact a gift officer to learn more.

Together we can empower students to discover their purpose, support the faculty who shape their journeys, and advance academic excellence that lasts a lifetime.
