President, Holy Cross Colleges, Inc.

Dear Crucians,

Welcome to a new school year filled with new opportunities, new experiences, and new beginnings. As we open another chapter in our academic journey, I encourage each one of you to embrace this fresh start with enthusiasm, determination, and hope.

To our returning students, welcome back! May this year inspire you to continue striving for excellence while enjoying the many opportunities to learn, grow, and create lasting memories with your classmates, teachers, and friends.

To our freshmen, a special welcome to the Holy Cross Colleges family. You are beginning an exciting new chapter in your lives, and we are honored to accompany you on this journey. May you find friendship, inspiration, and a strong sense of belonging within our community.

As members of Holy Cross Colleges, let us be guided by our cherished values of Fides, Caritas, and Libertas. May Fides (Faith) strengthen your trust in God and in your own potential. May Caritas (Charity) inspire you to show kindness, compassion, and concern for others. And may Libertas (Freedom) empower you to think critically, act responsibly, and pursue your dreams with courage and integrity.

School is not only a place for learning but also for discovering your passions, building meaningful friendships, and growing into the person you are called to become. Study hard, have fun learning, make new friends, and seize every opportunity to develop your talents and gifts.

Together, let us make this school year a meaningful journey of growth, service, and achievement. May we continue to embody the spirit of a true Crucian as we learn, lead, and serve with faith, compassion, and freedom.

Welcome back, Crucians!

Let us begin this new chapter with confidence, purpose, and the enduring values of Fides, Caritas, Libertas.

God bless and best wishes for a successful school year ahead!
