Founder, visionary and cornerstone of the institution – the University of St. Thomas Center for Thomistic Studies owes a great debt of gratitude to the Rev.Victor Brezik, CSB. On the occasion of his 95th birthday, the Center for Thomistic Studies honored him with a special Mass at the Chapel at St. Basil and reception in Ahern Hall on Friday, May 2.

Faculty, staff, students and friends gathered to toast and reminisce with Fr. Brezik. He was thanked for his countless contributions to the University.
