Twice yearly during the freshman, sophomore, and junior years, each student sits with his tutors and hears their observations on his work. The primary aim of the Don Rag is not, like a report card, to state the degree of a student’s mastery of the material. It is, rather, an occasion for offering him specific advice on how to improve his class preparation and participation and to help him advance in the intellectual life. Tutors thus work with the student to enable him to pursue more successfully the wisdom offered by great books.

In the above video, Leslie Galvan — a senior on the California campus who will be graduating in just two weeks — looks back on her experience of Thomas 91����Ƶ College’s unique program of Catholic liberal education. “It makes you feel so empowered,” she says, “while also humbling you at the same time.”
