Posted on | January 4, 2010 | Comment Here
Since graduating from St. Thomas in 2007, Stephen Brosha has been a high flyer.
A Rhodes Scholar, Brosha completed his Master of Studies in History at Merton College, Oxford and is now working on a doctorate in history. Believe it or not, he also found time to complete his primary flight training for the Canadian Armed Forces.
“My time at St. Thomas provided me with the tools I needed to successfully study at Oxford. From my first year, supportive professors helped me to thrive, personally and academically,” says Brosha. “Both through their endless support in the classroom and in the example they set by contributing to society through thought-provoking research and analysis, they made a difference in my education.”
While attending St. Thomas, Brosha also excelled outside the classroom. He held a number of student positions, including vice president on the Students’ Union. He was awarded the prestigious Tom McCann Memorial Trophy as the graduating student who best portrays the spirit of St. Thomas University by his contribution to university and student affairs.
“The socially and intellectually vibrant atmosphere at St. Thomas encourages individuals to develop and make their own unique contribution,” says Brosha.
“Through my military service, I hope to be able to do just that. I will return to Canada next fall to continue my flight training with the Canadian Forces.”
