Dear Editor,
this past semester, I had the privilege of accompanying the fall Romers on their Campania and Northern Italy trips.
Both were a pleasure. While I was a student at University of Dallas, I opted out of the Rome program, so it was a joy to finally get to know Due Santi.
These days, I am pursuing further studies in Rome as a priest. I would like simply to say that I was edified both by the character and the knowledge of the UD students whom I had the occasion to meet during the semester.
Thank you for the opportunity. Thank you, in particular, to the faculty and staff of the Rome campus.
I wish all the best to the fall Romers as they return to UD for the spring semester.
–Father Hastings
