  • St. Thomas Seminary
    St. Thomas Seminary St. Thomas Seminary Latin: Sigillum Seminarii Sancti Thomae Hartford Motto Spes Messis in Semine Hope to Harvest the Seeds Type Private Established 1897 Rector Most Reverend Christie A. Macaluso Location Bloomfield, Connecticut United States Colors Blue and White 1 St. Thomas Seminary, located in Bloomfield, Connecticut, is a minor seminary for the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Hartford. The current rector is the Most Reverend Christie A. Macaluso. History[edit] St. Thomas Seminary was founded in 1897 by Bishop Michael Tierney, the sixth Bishop of Hartford. The original Seminary was located at 352 Collins Street in Hartford, in what was once the Chinese College. It opened its doors on September 7, 1897.[1] Bishop Tierney appointed the Right Reverend John Synnott as the first President of St. Thomas. Due to the increasing enrollment it became necessary to find a larger space. Bishop John J. Nilan had the cornerstone laid for the present building in 1928, and in 1930 the seminary moved to its current location in Bloomfield. Collins Street (1897–1930) St. Thomas Seminary opened on September 7, 1897, with 37 students in its first class. On the first floor was a study hall, classrooms, the refectory, and parlors. The second floor consisted of the chapel, a dormitory, and the professors' rooms.[3] Soon after the size of the building proved inadequate for the needs of the diocese, and a new building adjacent to the old Chinese College was erected, serving the diocese until 1930[ Bloomfield (1930–present) On September 30, 1930, St. Thomas opened at its new location in Bloomfield, a suburb of Hartford.

  • Dear Alumni, Parents and Friends
    Honor Roll of Donors Dear Alumni, Parents and Friends ach year as we prepare this report that honors our generous donors to Saint Anselm College, I am reminded E how truly grateful I am for each person on this list. The 2010-2011 Honor Roll of Donors is more than just a listing of names. It is an expression of the regard each of the 5,704 individuals included in this publication has for Saint Anselm College. It is encouraging evidence that, even during challenging economic times, good people still find ways to support what they feel is important in their lives. As we reflect on another year in the life of our beloved Saint Anselm College, we also are mindful of our responsibilities to ensure that future generations will have the opportunity to experience the distinctive Catholic, Benedictine liberal arts education that we offer here. We are reminded of the great work of our founders who had the vision so many years ago to create a great institute for learning on the Hilltop. Our college has grown and advanced so much since those early days, certainly beyond what the founders could have imagined. But what has not changed is the value placed on Catholic education, on learning to respect human life, on how to show gratitude for the blessings in our lives. As we prepare for the future of Saint Anselm College through the implementation of our new strategic plan “Looking Within— Reaching Beyond, Vision 2015,” that includes revising our curriculum and adding new majors to meet the needs of our students as well as improving our facilities and campus life, we look to all of you to help ensure that we fulfill our mission of educating future generations.
