 Future Expansion
Having successfully raised $67 million in the Shining Star Capital Campaign completed in December 2005, the University has developed strategic plans and priorities for the next phase of growth. Currently, two major facilities are on the drawing board to be located on two city blocks within the campus property. The Center for Science & Health Professions and the Performing Arts & Conference Center will be highlights of the next major phase of University development.
As leadership and priorities are further developed, the University plans to announce a comprehensive capital campaign in early 2013. Meanwhile, the University continues to be blessed with increasing support among all benefactors as well as expanding the number of donors engaged with the University. Thanks to such outstanding philanthropic support, the St. Thomas Star continues to rise as everyone associated with the University embraces the vision of establishing the University as one of the nation’s great Catholic universities over the coming years.
