One of the Colleges newest alumni, Patrick Caughron (21), is the subject of a new story in the National Catholic Register, .

Written by a fellow TAC graduate, Lauretta Brown (13), the article profiles three of this years graduates at Catholic colleges. Patrick Caughron had to adapt to COVID restrictions while preparing for his upcoming wedding this summer and taking required courses in order to eventually apply to medical school, Miss Brown writes. While COVID guidelines restricting off-campus visitors proved challenging, he found himself drawing a lot closer to many of my friends this year because we had to make do with campus and find things to do with each other, and we had to get creative, too.

All in all, learning during a pandemic brought unexpected blessings. I came out of those times both stronger in my relationship with God and stronger in my prayer life, Mr. Caughron tells the Register. There was spiritual growth that probably wouldnt have happened if that pandemic hadnt happened, both having to face the difficulties that came with the pandemic and then just having all this extra time where the worlds shut down.
