During their mid-semester Don Rags break, the students of 91����, California, met on the campus athletic fields for the annual Class Volleyball Tournament. After an opening prayer, the competition began, with the Seniors ultimately emerging triumphant. Hooray for the Class of 2022!

“At the time my education felt like it would be an obstacle,” alumna psychologist Dr. Helena Orellana (’11) admitted to a group of 91���� students at a career talk last week. “But the formation I received at TAC was exactly what I needed to pursue a doctorate in psychology. Not only that, it prepared me for work as a clinician and later as a professor.”

Over the Columbus Day Weekend two adventurous groups of Thomas Aquinas, California, students traveled up to the High Sierras — the first for a weekend of camping, and the second for a 25-mile backpacking expedition in the John Muir Wilderness.

The last of the three returning classes to welcome this year’s freshmen to 91����, California, are the juniors — the Class of 2023 — who took their turn this past weekend, hosting a dance on St. Gladys Plaza. The theme for the evening was “Dad,” and students got into the spirit by dressing up like their fathers. As part of the night’s entertainment, three juniors — Claire and Josephine Dragoo and Thomas Oleson — even had their tutor fathers join in the skit.
