Name: Alex Piampiano
Major: Biology and Psychology
Hometown: Collierville, TN
What Saint Vincent means to you: I love the community that the people at Saint Vincent create. There is so much I will miss about SVC next year. No other school can you leave your door unlocked or your laptop out for hours, without worrying about people stealing from you. Only at SVC, does everyone you pass say hello or smile at you and hold the door. My friends make fun of me when I say that no other place compares to SVC, but I know how much I will miss this place when I'm gone.

Major: Biochemistry
Hometown: Meadville, PA
What Saint Vincent means to you: Saint Vincent means a lot to me, so it's hard to pinpoint exactly "what" it means, but I do know how it feels. It feels like the first sip of water after hours in the heat. A fresh breath of air after diving deep underwater. Driving up through the lighted trees into a world where I get to work towards the human being I want to be is more than refreshing.

What Saint Vincent means to you: Saint Vincent College has become a very special place to me throughout the past three years, and the two words that come to mind when I reflect on my time spent here are love and growth. Since my first day on campus, I have felt love everywhere I turn, through interactions, friendships and even simple gestures. This sharing of love by all members of the community has helped me to grow as an individual in so many ways. I will forever cherish and take with me these memories as I move forward to pursue my career and spread the love of Saint Vincent wherever I go.

The great community and people invested in our well being and success, and the opportunities readily available for each student to take advantage of. Saint Vincent is a platform that allows students of all different backgrounds to formulate a deeper relationship with themselves, their peers, and God. I wouldn't trade my years at SVC for anything!

KEVIN KUHN
Name: Kevin Kuhn
Major: Finance and Accounting
Hometown: North Huntingdon, PA
Why you chose Saint Vincent: I picked Saint Vincent because of its close proximity to my family, I had good friends coming here, and the McKenna School's success at placing students with jobs. It ended up being the best decision of my life. Saint Vincent has given me so much in the form of a great education, future career opportunities, the chance to work for my favorite team (Pittsburgh Steelers), memorable experiences, and most importantly many great relationships with my classmates and professors. I can't thank the SVC community enough for making my four years here so special.
DJ HOUGH
Name: DJ Hough
Major: Early Childhood Education with a Background in Special Education
Hometown: Steubenville, OH
What Saint Vincent means to you: St. Vincent means home. This place has given me life experiences that I never would have learned without coming here. Lessons such as learning to actually do my own laundry and and to be more independent. Experiences like how to perform all nighters with only a half a liter of mountain dew, a bag full of skittles, and a little less than two hours of sleep. Or the opportunities such as eating food that really no one should ever be able to eat. This school has given me more academic knowledge than I could ever hope for, my
best friends, and terrific opportunities that I never would have been able to encounter without its guiding hand. Most importantly, it has given me a family where I am always able to fall back on in times of need and will always be able to return to. And, because of that, this is the place that I call home.
