"The friendships I've made at Thomas have been nothing short of amazing; in such an intimate, tight-knit community, you get to know other students quite well. These are the relationships that will last long after I graduate, some for a lifetime. I’m also really excited to think about ten years down the road and see what we’ve become, reflecting back on how our Thomas experience helped to shape and guide us."

About RocĂ­o

RocĂ­o loves everything about writing.  She lives for the weight of an assignment sheet, gets teary-eyed while playing with sentence structure, and would rather put her hand on a hot stove than forego the detailed, careful pleasure of revising draft after draft after draft of a writing piece.  In her spare time, RocĂ­o has been known to teach the occasional yoga class and to go on pilgrimages to the tops of mountains.  She also enjoys  reading, skiing, and cooking elaborate meals for friends and family.
