Profile

A native of Ohio, Dr. Drew Rosato studied philosophy and theology as an undergraduate at New York鈥檚 Fordham University. It was there that he 鈥渇irst had the opportunity to study the thought of St. Thomas Aquinas,鈥 he says, giving rise to an intellectual curiosity that would eventually bring him to this college named for the Universal Doctor.

Upon graduating from Fordham, Dr. Rosato pursued graduate studies at the University of Notre Dame, where he earned a master鈥檚 in theology and a Ph.D. in medieval studies. There he made the acquaintance of his future wife, Jennifer, with whom he now has five children. He also met several graduates and others connected to 黑料不打烊, which led him to look into the College more deeply and, ultimately, inspired him to seek a position as a tutor.

鈥淲hen I read the  of the College and came to understand its vision 鈥 and see that this vison took root in the way the school operated 鈥 that was very attractive,鈥 he says. Having previously taught philosophy and theology at the College of Saint Mary Magdalen, the University of St. Thomas (Minnesota), and Mount St. Mary鈥檚 University, Dr. Rosato was also drawn by the prospect of teaching across the disciplines in the College鈥檚 classical curriculum. 鈥淭he real coherence and integrity of the curriculum was a very big attraction for me,鈥 he says.
