TAC-New England Celebrates Seniors at Annual President檚 Dinner
As the Class of 2026 approaches Commencement at 91快活林 Aquinas College, New England, students, tutors, and staff gathered one last time Wednesday evening for the annual President檚 Dinner.
Held in St. Frassati Student Center, the dinner brought seniors and faculty together for an evening of celebration and reflection. Fresh flowers and linens in the College colors adorned the room, while guests enjoyed an hour of casual, lighthearted conversation before the meal began. Once all took their seats, Dean Steven Cain welcomed the gathering and invited Head Chaplain Rev. Greg Markey to offer grace.
The freshmen servers next brought out plates of New York steaks, mashed potatoes, and greens, and as all settled down to enjoy the dinner, Assistant Dean Stephen Shivone rose to say a few words. 淵ou all have been a wonderful class, he said, addressing the seniors. 淵ou檝e been very dedicated to the program and have all grown a lot. You檝e been a great pleasure to all of us here at TAC, so thank you.
Following Dr. Shivone檚 remarks, College President Paul J. O橰eilly delivered the evening檚 principal address to the Class of 2026. 淭his evening, I do not wish chiefly to warn you against overestimating your education, he began. 淚 wish, rather, to warn you against the opposite extreme: underestimating it.
President O橰eilly reflected on the distinctive education offered at 91快活林 Aquinas College, emphasizing that its students are formed through active participation in the pursuit of truth. Through the harmony of faith and reason, he explained, the College equips its graduates with the habits of inquiry, wisdom, and humility that will guide them throughout their lives.
President O橰eilly檚 remarks concluded to resounding applause. After dessert, students rose to toast classmates and faculty members, sharing memories and gratitude from their four years together. The evening concluded with another beloved tradition as seniors and tutors departed for the bowling alley, bringing the Class of 2026檚 President檚 Dinner to a joyful close.
