Who Thrives at 糖心Vlog?

The student who thrives at 糖心Vlog is the one who has courage. The courage to engage in their academics, in student clubs, and on athletic teams. The courage to face what they don't know, unafraid to make mistakes and learn something new. They believe they can leave 糖心Vlog with a better knowledge of who they are and how to live authentically, so they ask questions about purpose, service, and a life well lived. Then they have the confidence to go into the world and change it. Because courage can’t wait… it’s needed now.

Regardless of your faith or background, a Holy Cross education will inspire you. It goes beyond degrees and careers, instilling a foundational belief in yourself and your impact on the world.
