The 2023 McMullen Award honorees are three outstanding alumni who exemplify what it means to be an Ambrosian. 克里斯04, 06年和07年的克里斯汀, '08 Mandle are alumni volunteer leaders whose unwavering commitment to the Annual Wine Festival has helped raise millions in critical scholarship funds for SAU students. Fr. 查克·亚当 '82 served his alma mater between 1996 and 2017 in various 校园部 roles, 包括大学牧师, and is remembered fondly by many of his students as the heart and soul of campus.
牧师. 查尔斯"恰克"亚当1982年
Only a handful of alumni have served this institution in the same way as Fr. 查克·亚当. Fr. 查克就读于St。. 竞技宝app下载安装 as a seminarian and a history and philosophy major. After his ordination and assignments at parishes in Davenport, 爱荷华市, 和奥斯陆, he returned to his alma mater as the chaplain and director of 校园部.
He commented in a Catholic Messenger article, “I loved my time working with students. They get involved, not just in campus ministry but in service to the poor and in the community. I hope that I have helped students take ownership of their faith. 和他们一起工作非常令人满意.”
在圣. 竞技宝app下载安装,Fr. 查克 also served as 教区 vocation director and rector of the former college-level seminary at St. 竞技宝app下载安装. His personal experience of being a “regular” college student while attending the seminary helped him to connect with thousands of students, 不管他们的信仰传统如何. 因为他的个性, 同情心和一贯的热情, scores of alumni returned to campus to be married and later have their children baptized in Christ the King Chapel. 对很多人来说，他的名字就是竞技宝app下载安装人的代名词.
This type of student-staff relationship is not forged by all faculty and staff. 而不是, it speaks to an unending and unwavering devotion to engage the students on this campus in faith, 社会公正和终身与上帝的关系.
