Each fall as we welcome students back to school, I find myself reminiscing about my time as a Saint Thomas Academy cadet. I recognize the students’ looks of apprehension because I was equally as disoriented the first day of my freshman year. I had just recently relocated from New York City and faced a new school, a new home, a new community and the prospect of new friends. While my father and uncle were alumni, and my grandfather a long-time history teacher, Saint Thomas Academy was still a bit intimidating.
Thankfully, in second hour on my first day at the Academy, I met Matt Dudley ’90. We became fast friends, and today represent the lifelong brotherhood that is so strong among cadets. Many others provided their special memories of the traditions and this brotherhood that we’re pleased to share in this issue of Saber
I’m also drawn to reminisce when I visit with alums who return to campus for Alumni Reunion Weekend. It’s the highlight of the year for many, as we renew old friendships and celebrate the ways in which Saint Thomas Academy shaped our lives forever.
In that context, I was struck by what Thomas Clements ’73 , our 2018 Hames Alumni Award recipient, said of Saint Thomas Academy (on page 6), “They were forming leaders. They weren’t forming guys who just sit in the back.” That was true when Tom was a student, when I was a student and it’s still true today.
Tom has certainly lived life as a leader — both in business and in service to others. After a successful business career culminating in the sale of his company, Tom put his new-found prosperity to work for others through the founding of the first Catholic college in Georgia, and later, extensive mission work in Ghana, most notably the establishment of St. Joseph Catholic School, one of the top high schools in Western Ghana.
MISSION
Our mission — to develop boys into men of character — is our promise to our students, our families, our community and the world.
We accomplish this through the transformative power of an educational and life experience deeply rooted in Catholic faith and traditions, academic excellence, military leadership, and an all-male environment.
One of the faculty members during Tom’s school years, Fr. Gordon Doffing, had a profound impact on many cadets in our history. The esteemed Opus Sancti Thomae honoree for 2018 (profiled on page 2), Fr. Doffing served the Academy for 20 years from 1966 to 1986. As Middle School Director in its early years, he laid the foundation for what has become a vital element of Saint Thomas Academy — a distinct program for boys entering adolescence, rooted in the Academy’s rich traditions and history. His leadership and influence on generations of boys cannot be understated.
These two men demonstrate the ripple effect that Saint Thomas Academy, and our generous community, has had globally through the years. Extraordinary gifts of time, talents and resources from our alumni, parents, friends and donors allow us to fulfill our mission to develop boys into men of character, prepared to lead in college and beyond. On behalf of everyone at Saint Thomas Academy, we are deeply honored. Thank you.

2018 OPUS SANCTI THOMAE AWARD
Humility and Humor: The Father Gordon Doffing Story
BY DAVID JACOBSON
You don’t go long without laughter when you talk to Father Gordon Doffing, recipient of this year’s Opus Sancti Thomae Award.
“I was flabbergasted when Dave Hottinger ’85 (Saint Thomas Academy’s Director of Institutional Advancement) called me about the award,” Father Doffing said. “I told him he must have got the wrong number. With archbishops, and statesmen and successful businessmen on the list of recipients, I feel like I’m in very good company, but I don’t know if I deserve it.”
He does. And statements that reveal his humility only confirm that fact. He is not only a standard-bearer for Saint Thomas Academy, but also a stalwart of St. Paul as a whole. He has lived almost all of his 85 years in the area, starting with his childhood in West Side, where his interactions with the Church put him on the path to priesthood.
“In St. James parish, the priests did so much in our neighborhood and also in our schools,” he said. “They were such good examples.” Father Doffing particularly admired the late Father Patrick Hessian, who helped lead St. James and went on to serve as a major general in the Army and retire as its Chief Chaplain.
— Continued on page 4
Through all his years at Saint Thomas Academy, the memories that stand out were coaching the Academy’s High School Bowl quiz team to a Twin Cities championship and the annual group trips to Germany he would lead.
Father Doffing graduated from St. Agnes in 1951 and attended what was then the College of St. Thomas. A major influence while studying clarinet there was Dr. Francis Mayer, head of the music department and the band director, who, Doffing recalls with a laugh, used to encourage him by saying, “If doctors and scientists can make penicillin out of moldy bread, then we ought to be able to make something out of you.”
His first stop out of college was St. Joseph’s in West St. Paul. Six years later, Monsignor Roach invited him to join the faculty of Saint Thomas Academy, where he stayed from 1966-1986. His roles included music teacher and guidance counselor until Headmaster Pat Casey persuaded him to become head of the middle school.

In 1986, Archbishop Roach asked Father Doffing to take over the parish at Church of the Holy Childhood, where he stayed until his retirement in 2000. He has since lived in Mesa, Ariz., because he “fell in love with the climate, compared to St. Paul’s.”
The climate in Mesa is conducive to his pursuit of the hobby he calls “nocturnal hydrotherapy” (late-night swims). He occasionally leads mass, conducts funerals and makes hospital calls.
Despite the time and distance away from his days at Saint Thomas Academy, Father Doffing likes what he sees there. “They’re doing so much outreach in the community, especially in West St. Paul. Joe Seidel is such a great guy, and the stuff he’s doing — taking the students to go spend time with people in need — that kind of personal contact shows up in the lives of the students. Joe really has a handle on that. He’s been doing it so well for so long. And there are others, such as Erick Rome, who leads students on trips to Guatemala on a mission that does so much for the Guatemalan people.”
Through all his years in St. Paul and at Saint Thomas Academy, the memories that stand out were coaching the Academy’s High School Bowl quiz team to a Twin Cities championship and the annual group trips to Germany he would lead. He recalled that one group in the Bavarian Forest strayed into what was then Czechoslovakia, behind the Soviet Union’s “Iron Curtain,” and was arrested. “They were kept overnight,” Father Doffing said, “after one night the Czechs had had their fill of those kids and asked us to come get them.”
Father Doffing’s ability to make light of the situation now typifies his humor. And he is so humble that you also get his humor when he recalls the time he told his students he shook hands with Pope John Paul II. “One of the kids said, ‘That must have been a thrill,’ and I told him, ‘Well, the Pope thought so.’ ”
OPUS SANCTI THOMAE AWARD

Roots and Wings:
BY DAVID JACOBSON
Thomas Clements ’73, recipient of this year’s Edward G. Hames Alumni Honors Award, credits much of his career success and personal fulfillment to the “roots and wings” Saint Thomas Academy gave him.
“I know the term ‘roots and wings’ is not still in vogue,” he said. “But I feel like the academy said, ‘Listen you are a family member. You belong here. You are loved here, and you have roots here.’ But they didn’t constrain us. They said, ‘Go out there and spread your wings and try and do new things.’ That encouraged a lot of us who lived lives of full expression.”
Clements’ full expression came in the form of entrepreneurialism. After graduating from the Academy in 1973,
he headed to Notre Dame University. Classmate Tim Plunkett ’73, who nominated Clements for the Hames Award, recalls his friend parlaying his own move to South Bend into the business of transporting other Minnesotans back and forth. “He called it the Minnesota Club of Notre Dame, and when he graduated, he sold the business.”
While at Notre Dame, Clements applied to med school, and didn’t get in. “That’s the best thing that never happened to me,” he said, “because I got into this field called software.”
After spending his first post-college decade in sales and management at Control Data and Honeywell, Clements worked for smaller firms —
TIE Communication and Firstwave — and then built up Conduit Software as chairman of the board and president until 1999, when the company sold for $70 million. Asking himself, “Why did God give me this largesse?” Clements moved from business success to even greater social significance.
“Man’s search for meaning is his ultimate goal,” he reflected. “When man is fully actualized, using his talents to the fullest, he’s actually happy. I believe you’re as happy as you want to be. You aren’t what happens to you. You’re what you make of what happens to you. For me, that base came from Saint Thomas Academy.”

You aren’t what happens to you. You’re what you make of what happens to you. For me, that base came from Saint Thomas Academy.”
— THOMAS CLEMENTS ’73
So, instead of pursuing more wealth through software, Clements created Southern Catholic College, the first Catholic college in Georgia. He developed the by-laws, mission, governance and vision, recruited 18 board members and raised more than $10,000,000 in donations.
Such an entrepreneurial path “goes back to the concept of a life of full expression,” he said. “Saint Thomas Academy really encouraged us to participate in extra-curricular activities and to try new things. If you failed, that was OK. You were still loved. You were still accepted. Being an entrepreneur is a big risk, and I’ve done that multiple times and I had a sense of it being OK to fail. Starting a Catholic college, I felt like, ‘OK we can do this, and even if we
can’t let’s at least try. That definitely came out of Saint Thomas Academy. They were forming leaders. They weren’t forming guys that just sit in the back.”
Clements left Southern Catholic as the college launched in 2005 and the following year he received the St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Award from the National Catholic Educational Association. (The school’s student body peaked at 200-plus, but by 2010, financial shortfalls forced its closure.)
Meanwhile, in 2006, Clements had founded Clap for Jesus, which created a new residential high school in Ghana that now serves more than 800 students who otherwise would not be attending high school at all. Much of the rest of his energy goes toward Clements

Fundraising Consultants, which helps non-profits do just that, and in 2017 he literally wrote the book on the topic: How to Run a Nonprofit: The “Go to” Guide for all Nonprofit Managers.
In addition to Saint Thomas Academy providing him roots and wings, he said, “I have 14 friends from high school who get together approximately once a year.”
He refers to them in the context of Proverbs 27:17, “‘As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another." A lot of times I talk to these guys about what’s the right thing to do. These are very strong friendships with people who are virtuous and have that sense that we need to leave the world a better place.”
EDWARD G. HAMES ’36 ALUMNI HONORS AWARD
Since 1969, the Saint Thomas Academy Alumni Association has honored a leader in our community with the Alumni Honors Award, which was later renamed the Hames Alumni Honors Award in 1971. The award is named for Edward G. Hames ’36. During his days as a student at the Academy, Hames was Cadet Colonel, an Eagle Award Winner and a leader in school activities. He was a teacher and also presided over the STA Alumni Association in 1967-68 and was serving on the STA Board of Directors 12 in 1970 at the time of his death.
The Hames Award seeks to give due recognition to those alumni who have exemplified the ideals of the Academy, and in doing so have distinguished themselves in their communities. Such alumni enrich the lives of those about them through their personal and family lives, their occupations or professions, their civic leadership or human welfare activities, their intellectual or cultural pursuits or their efforts to advance the goals of the Academy.

Tracing Tradition
BY LUKE KOLAR ’19
The word “tradition” is heard daily at Saint Thomas Academy, likely more than in a standard high school. But do we ever stop and ask ourselves: what is tradition? In pursuit of an answer, I conversed with a dozen alumni of Saint Thomas Academy spanning seven decades, from boarders to younger brothers. Conversations with these alumni, each recounting his unique story, reveal more about tradition than a simple definition ever could.
Traditions are embedded into the memories of their participants, and this is certainly the case at Saint Thomas Academy. For Mr. Michael Barcelow ’64 , the annual homecoming bonfire that “brought enthusiastic students and faculty together” still holds nostalgic importance. Mr. Anthony DeLorenzo ’61, a boarder, recounts his duty as Hall Commander on the St. Paul campus, which involved ensuring that “beds were made [and] floors were cleaned,” as well as organizing drill sessions. This daily routine, to Mr. DeLorenzo, marks memories based on tradition.
Graduates of Saint Thomas Military Academy placed particular importance on the military pillar in general. “There are plenty of good schools, all-male schools, Catholic schools,” explains Mr. John Sturner ’59, “but what sets us apart is the military program.” In his day, the military department drew from the Army’s existing leadership programs rooted in World War II and the Korean War. Now, as Mr. Sturner explains, “leadership has become more academic by far,” and has adapted to “the times.” But with a grandson at Saint Thomas Academy today, he still sees the military pillar as a timeless and crucial tradition.
Coming together as a community
Daily formation, which emerged after Saint Thomas Academy’s move to its current campus, was most frequently cited as impactful to 1970s and 1980s alumni. In the words of Mr. Jim Seidel ’87, “One formation exhibits our four pillars all at once: military, Catholic, all-male, and college-prep.” Indeed, formation can be seen as a microcosm of the Saint Thomas Academy experience, characterized by routine reporting, prayer, and academic announcements, each of which correspond with a pillar. For Mr. Paul Cramer ’87, the formation tradition represented “a quick break in the day… to stand with your classmates, and to see your classmates present.” With a laugh, he added that since Mr. Culbertson, the Dean of Students, would publicly name cadets required to see him after formation,
“When classmates gave their senior speech, I was able to learn a lot about them, further building the sense of brotherhood. Even very familiar students become better known through the opportunity of the senior speech to reveal an unfamiliar aspect of their lives, something ‘unique to Saint Thomas Academy.’”
— MR. PETER EDWARDS ’04
“you also got to hear who was in trouble.” The theme of community was certainly a common thread for those who mentioned formation as their tradition of choice. “It’s at formation where we laugh together, where we go through sobering moments together, or cheer and motivate each other,” describes Mr. Kelly Rowe ’79. “It’s that one time of day where we all come together as a school.”
In the memories of many alumni, formation epitomizes the brotherhood so often mentioned in the halls of Saint Thomas Academy. This brotherhood, while more of an abstract concept than the formation itself, is still very much a tradition. Mr. Nate Walcker ’05 discussed how the notion of brotherhood has had the greatest impact on his life. “Over the years, when people talk about their experiences at STA, [brotherhood] is what it all comes back to,” says Mr. Walcker, “and it’s so important because it continues in the lives of cadets beyond their graduation.”
Mr. Jeff Smith ’97, currently a mathematics teacher at STA,
...the idea of tradition itself, rests in the mind of the community. Each cadet drives or rides to school, walks through the hallways, and eats lunch every single day, yet these are not considered traditions. It’s the meaningful repeated practices — those that bring us together as a community — which are designated as traditions in solidarity.
SENIOR SPEECH
similarly mentioned how brotherhood is especially apparent in the all-male environment. “The all-male environment is also helpful for teachers, cadets are more on-task,” he added with a chuckle.
In the course of my interviews, I found this prominent sense of brotherhood to be a common thread across the decades. Mr. Jack Ptacek ’64 , a boarder, felt this brotherly connection while living with a truly international group of cadets, “some from Cuba, Brazil… and quite a few from Mexico.” “We used toothbrushes… to shine parts of the floor,” remembers Mr. Ptacek, “and through routines like [this] we had quite the camaraderie.” Mr. Rowe also recalled Saint Thomas Academy’s strong fraternal environment, assuring me that even if the term “brotherhood” was not as commonly used in his day, “My close friends, who we’d refer to as the brotherhood today, were, of course, all there.” Elaborating on the etymology of the word, he proposed that the term “brotherhood” may be more common today as cadets today tend to come from smaller families, and their classmates more literally fill the role of brothers with this designation.
One of the most common events in which the brotherhood is mentioned is the senior speech. Much like how formation arguably emerged from Saint Thomas Academy’s traditional pillars and values, the senior speech originated as an element

“...it’s particularly rewarding to see the continuation of this tradition… knowing it began with our senior class.”
— MR. MICHAEL REIF ’98
BROTHERHOOD
of formation in the 1990s. Today, it is oft considered fundamental to formation itself. The importance of senior speeches is twofold, according to Mr. Peter Edwards ’04 “The tradition of every senior giving a speech in front of the school almost every day really ingrains the importance of speaking publicly,” describes Mr. Edwards on the academic importance of mandatory speeches. The second facet of the tradition’s purpose, however, connects to the recurring concept of brotherhood. Mr. Edwards recalls that when classmates “gave their senior speech, I was able to learn a lot about them,” further building the sense of brotherhood. Even very familiar students become better known through the opportunity of the senior speech to reveal an unfamiliar aspect of their lives, something “unique to Saint Thomas Academy” according to Mr. Edwards.
Tradition in full view
The senior speech isn’t the only recently founded tradition to have a lasting impact on graduates of the last two decades. During the winter of his senior year, Mr. Michael Reif ’98 and some friends approached their senior military instructor with the idea of wearing full Class A uniforms to the MSHSL Basketball State Tournament games. “Guys really loved it, and we won the tournament, so the tradition has really taken off since then,” reflects Mr. Reif. The annual sight of hundreds of consistent cadets and the lens flares of their shifting brass across the television screen is certainly fulfilling in itself to any alumnus. But to Mr. Reif, the pioneer of this practice, it’s
“Over the years, when people talk about their experiences at STA, [brotherhood] is what it all comes back to, and it’s so important because it continues in the lives of cadets beyond their graduation.”
— MR. NATE WALCKER ’05
particularly rewarding to see “the continuation of this tradition… knowing it began with our senior class.”
Listening to Mr. Reif contemplate that fateful 1998 tournament, Mr. Rowe ponder the thousands of announcements made at four years’ worth of formations, or even Mr. Ptacek describe a high school experience spent living on campus, I couldn’t help but philosophize on tradition itself. Even as a member of the Class of 2019, I still see these described traditions alive — if not in the same literal form, at least as implicit in new traditions adapted to a changing world. However, I’ve come to realize that all traditions, and the idea of tradition itself, rests in the mind of the community. Each cadet drives or rides to school, walks through the hallways, and eats lunch every single day, yet these are not considered traditions. It’s the meaningful repeated practices — those that bring us together as a community — which are designated as traditions in solidarity. And it’s this solidarity of cadets past and present that analogously gives our traditions their importance. Time will shape traditions, but the underlying community they reflect has, and will continue to, transcend centuries.

Little plays in the OK Go ‘Sandbox’ through University of St. Thomas graduate work
The musical group OK Go stumbled into the education world through its creative songs, and more so, the accompanying videos. The band received message after message from teachers who found the band’s music and videos brilliantly reached and aided teaching students of all ages a variety of concepts.
Through happenstance, the band met University of St. Thomas Professor AnnMarie Thomas, UST Professor of the Year and Creator of the University’s Playful Learning Lab. Together, Professor Thomas and the band created the OK Go Sandbox, an online platform on which educators tap into resources and share ideas around creativity and STEAM learning concepts. The Sandbox allows the band to more actively interact with educators and contribute to classroom learning.
Professor Thomas works with a bench of more than 700 educators to create content for the OK Go Sandbox, including a series of educational videos that complement every music video the band produces. Only one educator is chosen to be the lead on the set when these educational videos are being produced.
This October, Saint Thomas Academy French teacher and Experimental Vehicle Team comoderator Caroline Little will be the lead educator on the production of educational
videos to accompany “Upside Down and Inside Out,” which features a video recorded in a microgravity environment. Little, who is currently pursuing her master’s certificate in engineering education at UST, was chosen because of her work with Professor Thomas and the Playful Learning Lab, and Little’s experience in NASA’s Micro-gravity University for Educators in 2016-2017. Little’s recent capstone project for the National Geographic Certified Educator program was also space-themed.
As the lead educator, Caroline will accompany a group of UST students involved in the Playful Learning Lab to a STEAM event at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech). She will work with students (1,100 strong) from across the country on space-related experiments, an art competition and more. Caroline and the students will get to meet and work with the band during the weekend.
Watch the Academy’s social media feeds for updates on Caroline’s experience at Caltech and her brush with fame!

STARTED AT SAINT THOMAS ACADEMY | 2016
SUBJECTS/CO-CURRICULARS/CLUBS | Middle and High School Science Teacher
FIRST TEACHING JOB | 1998 Inver Grove Heights Middle School; Outside of Saint Thomas Academy, I helped coach my son’s basketball and baseball teams, taught Confirmation and spent many hours flooding hockey rinks!
HOBBIES | Anything that involves the outdoors! Running, hiking, biking, skiing. Spending time at my cabin up North. I love sports, especially hockey and basketball! Cooking and canning the garden’s bounty! Maple Syruping at the Clausen Family Sugarbush in Wisconsin. Being a Minnesota Master Naturalist and teaching others to love the outdoors!
A FAVORITE TEACHING MOMENT | One special moment was walking into Walgreens one day and the pharmacist was a student from my first year of teaching in 1998. I actually taught him 6th, 7th and 8th grades! He immediately recognized me from behind the counter and was yelling my name across the store! I always enjoy when I have the opportunity to see how students have achieved their goals in life!
BRUSH WITH FAME | I ran into Bob Dylan once in Duluth while out running on the Lake Walk!
FAVORITE EXPERIENCE | Honestly my favorite experiences come from my Grandparents! I grew up hiking and sailing around Lake Superior, farming and having them support me as an athlete and musician. So much of who I am today has come from all the love and support of my grandparents!
WHY I TEACH AT SAINT THOMAS ACADEMY | I love the small class sizes! It allows me to really get to know my students and be able to connect with them! I also love that I get the opportunity to watch student progress through their school years. It is exciting to watch them grow and reach their goals academically, athletically and artistically.
FAVORITE MUSIC | I love all types of music! 80’s and 90’s are my favorite, but I love Classic Rock, Jazz, Blue’s, Classical and New Age. In the summer you can find me on a patio somewhere listening to live music!
FAVORITE VACATION SPOT | Mexico and my Northern MN cabin! Growing up in Duluth I also spend a lot of time around the North Shore. Lake Superior is in my soul!

Patrick Meisch ’10
YEAR STARTED AT SAINT THOMAS ACADEMY | Teaching 2017, Graduate of 2010
SUBJECTS/CO-CURRICULARS/CLUBS | Science Instructor, Middle School Soccer Coach, Poker Club Moderator
FIRST TEACHING JOB | PLTW Biomed Instructor at East Ridge High School
HOBBIES | Playing soccer, playing video games, reading sci fi and fantasy novels, learning Japanese
A FAVORITE TEACHING MOMENT | My favorite teaching moment so far occurred when a biomed student of mine stormed in to my room one day in order to complain about missing a study session that I had held after hours for a big exam, which made her feel as though she had been deprived of a valuable learning opportunity. She was angry with me and she expressed that she was at a disadvantage compared to the other students as a result of choosing to miss said session and she continued to complain that it was not fair while growing ever more distraught. She left my room in a huff after I told her that every choice one makes in life will carry consequences and growing up is about learning to plan around these inevitabilities. I spent the rest of the day agonizing over whether or not my terse delivery of this crucial lesson had made an enemy out of one of my best students. She came back in to my room the following morning and apologized for her behavior, admitted her fault in the situation, and told me she would strive to plan better in the future. I was too proud of her demonstration of character in the moment to experience the relief that came with the return of our relationship to normalcy.
WHY I TEACH AT SAINT THOMAS ACADEMY | I chose to teach at Saint Thomas Academy to pursue my passion of teaching while giving back to the community that gave me so much as a child. In my experience, there is no school that better capitalizes on the mission of turning boys in to men of upstanding quality.
FAVORITE MUSIC | 90’s Alternative
FAVORITE VACATION
SPOT | My favorite vacation spot is my couch, but I have always wanted to travel to Hawaii one day.
“ IN MY EXPERIENCE, THERE IS NO SCHOOL THAT BETTER CAPITALIZES ON THE MISSION OF TURNING BOYS IN TO MEN OF UPSTANDING QUALITY.
”
Partial list provided by current Mothers’ Club President Kris Goldade, who is quick to point out,
“While there is a Mothers’ Club board and I happen to be the president this year, Mothers’ Club runs so well because of all 500 of the amazing mothers volunteering and sharing their time and talents.”
[The Mother of All Clubs
BY DAVID JACOBSON
When it comes to many household tasks, if the mother doesn’t do it, it doesn’t get done. That is often the case at Saint Thomas Academy, where the Mothers’ Club, celebrating its 80th year, is responsible for*:
Service to the school:
n Cadet Promotions Reception
n Faculty and Teacher Appreciation Meals and Gifts
n New and Used Uniform Sales
n Outdoor Seasonal Planters
n School Christmas Decorations
n Military Ball Decorations
n Picture Day
n Back To School Night
Fostering parent/guardian involvement and camaraderie:
n One+ Event Per Year, Per Class
n Mother's Harvest Mass and Meal
n Mothers’ Club Meetings and Socials
Celebrating Mothers and Sons:
n Spring Senior Moms and Sons Mass and Luncheon
n Christmas Mother and Son Mass and Brunch
Service to Faith:
n Eucharistic Adoration
n Prayer Chains
n Mother's Morning Of Prayer
n Monthly Mother/Son Mass
Community Support:
n Cards, Flowers, Meal Trains and Other Support For Those In Need
Even more amazing than the list of what the Mothers’ Club gets done is that many of the activities are so long-standing. “What strikes me is the traditions that were started 80 years ago that still exist,” Goldade said. “It’s not too often that that happens these days. It speaks volumes about the connections to the school and how close a community it is.”
In honor of the 80-year anniversary, Goldade, a long time educator, has dug into the club’s history and identified unique levels of longevity, continuity and community. For example, Joan Farley, whose grandsons are now cadets, was a club member for the 18 consecutive years that her six sons attended the Academy (Greg ’79, Tim ’81, Kevin ’83, Michael ’84 , Brian ’87, and Daniel ’93 ).
Goldade visited with Joan Farley regarding the changes in Mothers’ Club throughout the years. Joan noted that technology has been a big change, “There is no longer a phone calling committee that disseminates information to members. It’s all email now.” Joan remembers taking over the email communication for her STA Mothers’ Club friends and having the precious contact information sent to her via certified mail so as not to lose a single name.
While digging through the archives of the Mothers’ Club files, Goldade found that the stamp of the Mothers’ Club is all around the school. Did you know that the long- standing tradition of the silent auction began with the Mothers’ Club? Did you also know the rock that sits outside of the cafeteria doors was put there by the Mothers’ Club? While Anne Hickey was Mothers’ Club president, she wanted a plaque made to remember the Saint Thomas Academy graduates that had served in the military. When she found that there were 1,800
names, she realized the plaque was unrealistic. So she decided on a rock memorial and drove around the area looking for one. She found a 3-ton rock at a nearby construction site, had it delivered to the school and a plaque placed on it in remembrance of those cadets that have served.
Many past Mothers’ Club members strive to keep their connections to the Academy long after their sons graduate. For example, along with the late Ann Connelly (mother of Mick ’07 and Patrick ’10 ), Mary Kelly (mother of Cotter ’10 and twins Louis and Dennis ’18 ) started Alumni Nights to help their fellow members keep in touch. Similarly, Past Presidents, Judy Wicker and Sue Hayes, about 10 years ago, started an annual “WHACHABENDOIN Luncheon” that draws some 40-50 members ranging in age from 70 to 90.
Goldade, whose son Matthew graduated in 2018 and son Jacob is a junior, will serve in that critical past-president role next year and pass on the legacy of the Mothers’ Club. Looking to the future, she said, “We will continue welcoming in new moms and encouraging them to get involved in the many traditions of the Saint Thomas Academy Mothers’ Club — making friendships that will last long after their sons have graduated. A huge piece of why moms want to stay connected to STA after their sons are done with school is that we have made great friends through our involvement in the many Mothers’ Club events, and we don’t want those friendships to come to an end. It’s out of that desire that we are building a strong Moms of Alumni branch of the Mothers’ Club.”
If you wish to be included in the newly created Moms of Alumni database and receive an invite to the “WHACHABENDOIN” Luncheon next fall and other events during the year, please e-mail Mary Kelly at, mmkelly.orchard@comcast.net

Your Investment, Our Students, Amazing Results
BY DAVID HOTTINGER ’85 DIRECTOR OF INSTITUTIONAL ADVANCEMENT
This annual report edition of Saber highlights the commitment and investment in Saint Thomas Academy by so many in our community across the United Sates and throughout the world. We are indeed blessed.
Of course, you can see our beautiful campus and transformative projects that have recently taken place in the Innovation Center, the Chapel, and the Anderson Learning Commons. But the greatest outcome of your gifts at work, in my opinion, appears each day on the faces of the students who can attend and gain everything possible from Saint Thomas Academy, thanks to financial support from our benefactors.
David Hottinger ’85
More than $3 million per year in assistance goes to families and students. This is a number that should evoke pride in all who support STA, comprising numerous gifts toward the Aquinas Annual Fund, Operation Scholar, Endowed Scholarships, Student Sponsorships, Fund a Need, and Random Acts of Kindness. Nearly half the students who attend Saint Thomas Academy do so because of your support.
You can see on page 43 our established scholarship funds, and I encourage you to support those or create a fund of your own. I ask you to reach out to our Advancement team with an offer to support our students, as there could not be a more meaningful and impactful gift to a young man than that of a Saint Thomas Academy education.
Thank you for making a difference by investing in excellence and the development of men of character.
“I like Saint Thomas Academy because it is teaching me to become a well-rounded, strong leader and young man. I also like my fellow students, teachers and staff. I like being a part of the Saint Thomas Academy legacy.”
— LOGAN CLOUTIER ’19 REMEMBER TO MARK YOUR CALENDAR FOR NOVEMBER 14, 2018!

Your Gifts at Work | THE SAMECS ON SCHOLARSHIPS
BY DAVID JACOBSON
Jason Samec, a senior and captain on the cadets football team, knows something about openings. As an offensive lineman, Samec creates openings for the skill-position players behind him, and as a defensive lineman, he rushes through openings in the opposing offensive line.
Perhaps the determination to create and capitalize on openings that Samec showed in helping the cadets to a 7-0 start this season stems from the opening that donors created for Samec, an open door to Saint Thomas Academy in the form of a scholarship, a door Samec rushed through four years ago. When he exits as a graduate next spring, Samec will remain determined to create openings, not just on whichever college football field he graces, but also by eventually contributing funds for a scholarship that provides a future cadet an otherwise-unaffordable opportunity to attend the Academy.
“The person who provides the scholarship for Jason also went to Saint Thomas Academy on a scholarship,” explained Jason’s father, Michael, “and he’s hoping that the people he’s given the scholarship to can do the same thing, so that they create a number of scholarships for people.”
That seems distinctly possible, given Jason Samec’s trajectory. His parents, Stillwater residents, make no bones about the fact that they wanted a different experience for Jason than he could have received at the local public high school, but that they could not afford Saint Thomas Academy. Michael works as an electrician, and Jason’s mother, Jennifer, primarily is a stay-at-home mom.
The Samecs’ financial aid application caught the eye of scholarship donors. Learning about the scholarship availability, Michael recalled. “I cried…and I’m not a crier, but I couldn’t believe that our family would be blessed that way.”
“I cried, too,” Jennifer said. “I was completely shocked and wasn’t expecting that at all. We were starting to lose a little bit of hope, but this answered our prayers.”
Despite some early “class-clown” behavior Jason mentioned in his speech at the Honor Awards and Dinner, he was a fit from the start. “My top experience has been football,” he said. “Freshman football started three weeks before school, so by the first day of school, I knew 40 or 50 guys.”
Other impactful experiences include his time as an altar server, work with campus ministry, and last year’s mock trial. Academically, Samec gravitates toward business and hopes to eventually earn an economics degree and possibly attend law school.
His parents appreciate other aspects of the Academy. “It’s helped develop Jason into a more responsible person,” Michael said. “Maybe being at an all-boys school helps because he’s not trying to impress the girls.” Added Jennifer: “I’ve come to understand more about the brotherhood and how they really do operate as family through their ups and downs.”
Underlying it all, the Samecs feel great gratitude for the scholarship that brought Jason to Saint Thomas Academy. “We’ve thanked the donors repeatedly,” Jennifer said, “but we can never thank them enough.”
ABOUT THE STEELE FAMILY SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM
BY DAVID JACOBSON
Jason Samec attends Saint Thomas Academy under the Steele Family Scholarship Program, established in 2006 by Tom Steele ’58 The program works with the Admissions Department to identify a current 8th grader who shows academic and athletic promise. The program then looks at family and financial circumstances and awards the scholarship from 9th-12th grade.
Steele — along with his classmate and football teammate, Gerry Brown, for whom the Academy’s football stadium is named — selects recipients based on their potential to contribute to the betterment of the school academically and athletically.
“Gerry Brown deserves all the credit for being our scout on the ground every year,” Steele said. “His astute football knowledge is an asset to the program. Jason Samec, for example, seemed to be somebody who would fit in very well, and we have been very pleased with his academic performance and his performance on the football field.”
Steele’s own experience of “coming from a modest background, where my family had no car and no TV” and having a donor cover the cost of his Academy education prompted him to start the scholarship program. Beyond funding, Steele and Brown maintain relationships with the scholarship recipients.
“One benefit of the scholarship is a one-to-one relationship with a mentor,” Steele said. “Gerry and I stay in touch with all of the Steele Family Scholars beyond high school and college. This extends through the rest of their lives, which is very impactful to the scholarship recipients and very rewarding for me.”
Steele hopes other alumni will follow suit so that families of prospective cadets “do not self-select out of Saint Thomas Academy based on cost. I’d like to see an increase in the pool of eligible candidates for the Steele Family Scholarship Program and in increase in the pool of funds from other people to start these types of scholarship programs.”

Alumni Reunion Weekend
Thank you to everyone who joined us for Alumni Reunion Weekend 2018! The strength of The Academy is in our community, and it was our great pleasure to host you on campus. This year’s reunion included new events such as the Open 12 Step meeting, and the moving of the Edward G. Hames ’36 Alumni Honors Award presentation to Wednesday night! Here are some of the highlights.
CLASS OF 1968 The Class of 1968 returned to Mendota Heights to celebrate its 50 year-class reunion. Although they spent their sophomore through senior years in Mendota Heights, this class was the last class to spend a year on our “old” St. Paul campus.
CLASS OF 1973 The Class of 1973 showed up in full force for their Class Specific Reunion dinner at Southview Country Club on Thursday, September 20, 2018.
In recognition of their 50 year-class reunion, every member present from the CLASS OF 1968 received a commemorative glass, an Academy Challenge Coin, and a 20% off coupon to the Cadet Maker Bookstore.
Are you a member of the CLASS OF 1968 and interested in receiving your commemorative glass?
