The addition of the football team will be the 15th sports program at the school, which competes in the NAIA. “We are coming off a very successful season in STU Athletics history, and I feel the addition of football is the next natural step for our athletics program,” said STU President David A. Armstrong. By adding football and marching band, STU hopes to add upwards of 20 students for football and 10 students for the marching band that would be connected with the programs in Spring 2019. In Fall 2019, the number is expected to grow to 100 football student-athletes and 30 marching band members. The location for an on-campus football facilities, training field, and game-day field are to be determined. The Bobcats, full-time members of The Sun Conference, will compete in the Mid-South Conference in football in The Sun Division. Eric Ward, commissioner of the Mid-South Conference, said he was honored and excited to have St. Thomas University join as the eighth football member in the Sun Division. “Not only will we increase our number to 23 teams in 2019, but will also add to the overall quality of the schools in the conference,” said Ward. “We expect that the STU Bobcats will be competitive quickly in the Sun Division, adding to the overall strength of the schedule across the conference. Congratulations to President Armstrong and the university on their unanimous and enthusiastic acceptance by our Council of Presidents.” At the momentous announcement, special guests included former Miami Dolphins players: Nat Moore, Jason Taylor, O.J. McDuffie, Dick Anderson, Sam Madison, and Larry Little.

Tell us about how some of your prior experiences, What attracted you to St. Thomas University? how do those uniquely prepare you for this role? The weather! I grew up in Cleveland, Ohio, and I’ve had enough winters to last a lifetime. But, more importantly, this is a coastal city The job that most prepared me for being a president was being a head where everything is happening. Miami has great diversity, and STU has football coach. As a head football coach everybody thinks they know a great foundation to build upon. As I learned about the mission, football better than you, they think they can make better calls. And accomplishments, and needs of the university, I believed I could make that is a great way to prepare you to be a president. Having that a difference as president. The prospect of making a difference within experience has been invaluable. And, as a former athlete, I learned an institution that has such a great community footprint is what attracted from my coaches that in order to be successful, you need three things: me to STU. hard work, discipline and a positive attitude. I use those three things every single day as a president. What is it about small, Catholic universities I’ve worked in higher education for more than 30 years, and I’ve been that appeals to you? able to either work in or supervise every single aspect of a college campus, and I’ve had phenomenal mentors and supervisors. Being I am a first generation college student, and a product of a small liberal a second-time president is very interesting because I don’t question arts Catholic college, which is where I met my wife of 27 years and myself as much as I did the first time around. I know what works, and made life-long friends. My parents taught me that education is the I know how to do it. The tough part is convincing everyone else to great equalizer and because of their hard work, I believe I received the believe in what you’re doing. best education that I could possibly get. My goal in life is to make sure that small, Catholic universities not only survive, but thrive. What are your proudest moments in your Coming to STU, what are you impressed by? career thus far? Commencement. Nothing compares to the feeling of seeing students First off, the wonderful people that work here, they are doing God’s walk across the stage and receive their hard-earned diploma. Second work in educating a very diverse student population, which is a proudest moment is the first day of school when I see students coming reflection of the real world. And I want STU to grow so that we are a onto campus. Thirdly, setting enrollment records at every school that bigger part of Miami. We have an excellent undergraduate program I’ve worked in—that’s pretty special. But in the end, the best moment that really supports students and prepares them for success and is when I see a student whose life the university has transformed leadership roles, and we’re a mission-centric institution. because they received an education. 4 AROUND CAMPUS St. Thomas Law Delegation Aid Separated Migrant Families in Texas The humanitarian crisis caused by the separation of migrant children from their asylum-seeking parents has had an effect on everyone that has heard the heartbreaking stories.
