Message from the Vice President for Student Affairs and Administration 

Dear Hilltoppers, 

As we reach the end of another incredible academic year, I want to take a moment to celebrate all that we’ve accomplished together. Each of you has contributed to the vibrant and caring spirit of our beloved Hilltop.  I’ve seen so many of you excel in your studies, forge meaningful friendships, plan and participate in campus events, and dedicate your time to service.  Thank you for making St. Edward’s the wonderful campus it is and at a time when being in community matters more than ever.  

This year has been full of opportunities for growth and discovery. You’ve challenged yourselves academically, engaged in important conversations, and taken steps toward your personal, spiritual and professional goals. I hope you take pride in how far you’ve come and the resilience you’ve shown throughout the academic year. I certainly do.  Many of you embraced new experiences, contributed to service projects, and upheld our Holy Cross values of community, respect and inclusion.

Next year brings even more opportunities for connection, leadership, and growth. Whether you’re returning or preparing to graduate, I know you’ll continue to positively impact our community and beyond.

Thank you for being the heart of St. Edward’s and inspiring hope on the Hilltop! I wish you a restful and joyful summer. I can’t wait to see what’s next for each of you!
 

Warmly,

Dr. K
