"To study the Universal Doctor in the heart of the Universal Church: the Rome Seminar lives up to its promise and then some. Thanks to the generosity of the IHE, this week — spent with talented scholars and wonderful people — was certainly a highlight of my academic career."

"I found the IHE Rome Seminar to be an excellent supplement to my formation as a Catholic academic. The combination of prayer, discussion, and conviviality made the Seminar both intellectually and spiritually refreshing. I would recommend the Seminar to students and young academics from all backgrounds who wish to expand their knowledge of theology and philosophy in an enriching environment."

"I'm grateful to have spent a week with such a great group of students and some of the best Thomistic scholars in the world. The program was intellectually, spiritually, and socially edifying."

"No words other than magisterial."

"Studying in the Eternal City under the impressive faculty at the Angelicum and guest lecturers allowed us to dive deeply into the mind of Saint Thomas with theological clarity and depth. I am very grateful for the faculty’s ability to share their expertise and academic pursuits with a diverse cohort from various educational experiences. The 'Rome Seminar' expertly educates the participants spiritually and culturally through the pilgrimage to the Roman Basilicas, Vatican Museums, and the shared Italian dinners every evening. The holistic educational approach of IHE prepares the next generation of Catholic intellectuals to create a shared environment where we learn from leading scholars in a professional and culturally enriching space. My time with the IHE has become a highlight in my education which I will draw from for years to come."

"The IHE Rome program was a singular experience of intellectual fellowship, deep study, and immersion in the heart of the eternal city. The students and faculty brought together a breadth of expertise and a profound love for the works studied, especially those of Saint Thomas, making for a rich treatment of the crucial themes of the seminar. The opportunity to study within the walls of the Angelicum gave the sense of a real and direct connection with the work of the Angelic doctor and a spiritual closeness to this great teacher. What's more, this intellectual feast was received in the midst of the splendor of the eternal city in all of its beauty and history to which students are given an excellent exposure through pilgrimage, common meals, and self-guided adventures. I wish I could go again!"

"The overall strength of this program was perhaps the opportunity to learn from and meet some of the most brilliant theologians and philosophers. That opportunity was priceless!"
