Yubi Hassan ’24
"Being a first-generation immigrant, and the first person in your family to potentially graduate from college, it makes me proud," Hassan said. "But at the same time, I don't want it to be a first for the generation after me."
Kate Kapsner '24
Kapsner spent her summer working at Ecolab on a real-life project creating sustainable systems to maximize product margins. "This was an incredible opportunity to work on a real issue, an applicable project that they will actually use in real time. In other internships, they'll give you fake projects that simulate reality; this internship was something very real that their team needed completed."
Impressed with her work, Ecolab soon offered her full-time employment.
Brayden LeLoup '25
"There's a ton of opportunity at St. Thomas. The people you meet and the experiences you have outside of the classroom are really what makes the St. Thomas experience."
Jade Hill '25
Hill's playmaking and leadership make her a standout on the basketball court, but off the court, she's preparing to guide the next generations to strive toward greatness. An elementary education major, the junior wants to make an impact on future student-athletes, just as her parents, teachers and coaches made an impact on her.
"That's what my parents taught me: Children follow their leaders. You want to be a good example to them and teach them well and always set that high standard for them and call them up."
