UST Concerned Students
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 14 เม.ย. 2024
Recently, a group of our fellow students filmed a video outlining the issues we are encountering, including the lack of qualified professors for our department, insufficient class offerings, and unfulfilled promises. This video is a reflection of the sentiments shared by all of us who are struggling to receive the education we have paid for.
We respectfully urge the Board of Directors to address these issues with urgency and consideration. Please consider reaching out to the University President, Dr. Richard Ludwick, about these issues. We are desperate for your help in ensuring that we receive the quality education that we came to the University of St. Thomas for.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. We look forward to your prompt and positive response.

Students Voice Their Concerns to the President of the University | Dr. Richard Ludwick
มุมมอง 2.6K7 หลายเดือนก่อน
On April 22nd, we met with the President of the University of St. Thomas, Dr. Richard Ludwick. They attempted to prevent faculty, parents, and supportive students from attending. A select group of non-communications students (who refused to be recorded) attempted to hijack the meeting, which would explain the gaps in the conversation. Despite the university's attempts to silence us, we voiced o...

The lack of context in this video is intentional, as it was created specifically for the University of St. Thomas Board of Directors. This video follows numerous emails and conversations exchanged with them. While we're pleased it has garnered attention, we'd like to reiterate its intended purpose. The Board of Directors refused to believe that students were unsatisfied. - Our Message to the Bo...
What counselor was this? Does he still work there?
Is this why Amanda V doesn't work there anymore?
fire is catching. #thewhiterosestillgrows
Don’t speak, SHOUT ROSIE! #thewhiterosestillgrows
Universities are businesses. They will always protect the system. UH is the same. All of them are the same. This is unacceptable and Rosie and all students are worth protecting.
Wow this story sounds like grooming from the professor.
"The truth will catch up to you" - and you've given it wings, Grady. #thewhiterosestillgrows
After hearing both Grady and Rosie’s testimony, I have a feeling I know which counselor they were referring to. I have heard multiple stories from students about their bad experiences with him where they gave counseling (as a whole) and chance but emotionally shut themselves off after their experience with this counselor. While he doesn’t work there anymore, I have no clue how he got his license, let alone became the director of the counseling program there.
Ivan Navarro is established as a Catholic counselor in the same group most of these guys are from if that’s who you mean? I’ve heard some pretty bad stuff about him as a counselor.
Don't know why the algorithm recommended this channel, but glad I watched. You need to contact your local chapter of the ACLU.
UST doesn’t care about people that are different!!! They only care about their fragile image which is crumbling every time y’all post which I’m glad !!! I always felt the evil in this school and it’s not because I’m religious but just because I felt it. I was miserable at this school but I’m glad someone is speaking out against their horrible acts. I’m sorry this happened to you Grady you deserved better!
#thewhiterosestillgrows
Wir schweigen nicht, wir sind Euer böses Gewissen; die Weiße Rose läßt Euch keine Ruhe. #thewhiterosestillgrows
This is an absolute disgrace and disgusting. So proud she was brave enough to speak out and it’s a shame no one protected her.
Wow! What in the hell is going on around there! They wanted you to pray the rosary to make it go away! Your complaint should have never been lost. How sloppy! Good for you for speaking up. It seems like this is the only way they respond when you make it public. Now take it to the media like the communications students did. Maybe you will get results then.
proud of everyone for speaking out!
UST protects predators. And there’s so many instances of this. It doesn’t matter if everyone is an adult in college this is unacceptable behavior. Professor/leaders/coaches are in positions of authority and they should NOT be abusing it. I’m sick of hearing people being taken advantage of. Rosie I’m so sorry you went through this!
No student should ever have to fear for their safety, shame on the school! Don’t ever let them silence you❤️
this is actually disgusting behavior from the campus. instead of showing support to students and enabling an environment that is safe for students to come cowards, they literally silence everyone. no student should have to be weary about going to campus. no students should have to be feel targeted by faculty. I absolutely adore Rosie, she has one of the most kind souls ever. I hope Rosie gets justice for this disgust behavior. I hope more light is shed on the Counseling issues on campus. I had a session with a counselor on campus and it genuinely made me question how they can even allow that kind of “help” to students.
those in power have the most responsibility towards the vulnerable. #TheWhiteRoseStillGrows
Rosie is such a kind hearted girl. I am proud she is sharing her story. ❤ this whole situation is just awful on so many levels
I am so glad that Rosie has PROOF of Barloon's weird ass behavior.
So many fundamentalist want to raise your daughters like this and then turn around and blame her for “leading him on” - I would never set my daughter up for this type of abuse… please teach your kids about consent and bodily autonomy… the world is dangerous for the naive ❤😢
brave girls. don’t ever let them silence you!
#thewhiterosestillgrows
Rosie is my friend of several years. That the situation with Barloon was not dealt with in any satisfactory way (she waited for MONTHS) is an administrative failure of the highest degree. This should never have happened to her, and she has my total support.
#thewhiterosestillgrows. Very brave.
it is very easy to hire professors who are excellent. all professors keep up with their discipline per innovation and technology--this is applicable to many disciplines--you have to pay them a decent salary. common sense. ust is broke and has significant financial issues. he has lied and manipulated students many times throughout the portion I have watched.
This person is unqualified to be Vice President. He was one of the worst Deans in the school's history, and then they promoted him to VPAA! If you follow the money trail, you will come to understand that these people use "Catholicism" as a facade to hide their exuberant and undeserved salaries. Wolves in sheep's clothing!
Ludwick is unqualified as a leader. He has never accomplished anything in his life. Chris Evans has absolutely no qualifications to lead a Liberal Arts college. He can translate Latin -- that is only thing he is qualified for.
Richard Ludwick and Chris Evans are liars. They are neither open to discussions nor are they transparent. They see themselves as part of an "old boys club". They are fleecing the students to enrich themselves.
also I’ve talked to some people who have also transferred out, and most of the credits we earned aren’t even transferable. that’s an issue
it was so hard to transfer out of this school! I felt so stuck there, I am glad to see people are finally raising their voices against these issues
I’ve never witnessed them be any of those things. The only time I heard any truth it came from professors who no longer hold their positions or who are currently at risk of losing their position. The administration is incredibly dishonest. It all felt like I had been cheated by the time I was done. And I was.
I hope you guys get the closure and fixtures you need. The "right professors" is a lazy explanation.
That’s psychotic these new freshman need to save themselves NOW‼️‼️‼️
I'm sayinggg
Yeah, this is only the surface
Using the police as well to aid in suppressing discontent. This is no different from the union busting tactics employed by corporations throughout history, nor is it any different from how ruling institutions combat grassroots activism. Once the police are used, it demonstrates the university feels that their inherent power is being threatened. No official organization in UST can ensure change occurs permanently, they are designed to never present a challenge to the admin's interest. A student union is needed.
I grew up Catholic. After learning about the Pope and Vatican, I'm out. I refuse to support pedophiles. All religions are tainted by mankind. Nothing but lies and half truths come from their teachings. I love God and Jesus. I have zero trust in mankind.
Oh boy! I do support Christianity. Especially of the born again movement. In my experience people use the term very loosely as "Religious." Catholics are not so much Spiritual (doesn't mean that a portion aren't) as they are Religious. The reason is not so much what the Bible says, it's what a person says in a hierarchy made in a time to cross a bridge from multiple beliefs into what ultimately is called Christianity for that sect. They claim dominance too. I'm not acting like people think born again Christians aren't Religious. We just care about the text and not so much the system. In the same way a person may say "I'm not religious, I'm just Spiritual." It has to come from the heart and not some other corporal person or system because that isn't what saves a person even in a Catholic Bible or otherwise. To invest heavily in a human system and not the written Biblical system is what sets it all apart. Catholics are not alien to the Bible though. The system they use is very heavily saturated in Human wish however. The religious aspect they go through is absolutely not in the text. That is something constructed in a time when it was useful to have handy and NOT from the Jews that branched off into what became a Christian Bible. I wish not to piss anyone off and I do get it. That book is a real ride though. Once you crack it open... It goes Brrrrrrrrrrr. Have mercy on me folks. It isn't out of hate. Edit: Almost forgot. You are seeing the Religious system here. It isn't like any of them are talking about God. He (them folk) is simply done without any teachings or understanding. That's just the Religion part. It has nothing to do with Spiritualism or betterment of this man. That is where that line is drawn directly before faith, hope, love, and Christ. Edit again + grammar edits: If that establishment cared at all about saving people (their #1 job in text,) Somebody would have tried to correct him if he was amiss. What you see instead is just... not that. Further more I should shut up because there are 11 comments and only 6 visible. Just pray.
Truth honestly and transparency at a private religious college… Your premise is flawed
People can claim to be whatever religion they want to claim. Doesnt mean you're representative of that religion. Only 'following' the said religions creed makes it so.
Lol
So the investigation is still underway yet what the student alleges is a false narrative? Make it make sense.
Their money matters. Not them. Unless they’re there to pull the narrative. Then they matter. That was made abundantly clear to myself and others in my courses and extracurriculars.
The relationships were already built. The internships were cancelled. They want Catholic or University condoned media only. Say it out loud instead of saying they will have it but with a “theoretical” basis when they mean theological. I know I’m commenting throughout the video but it’s beyond annoying that he is telling half truths and outright lies.
Or giving fluff nonsense answers instead of anything of substance.
They need people to be able to teach it because they’ve run off any decent professor they have in the department. My goodness I am at a loss.
Exactly. “We’re searching for the right people.” They were in front of you the whole time. Where are they?
@@Magpie20032 it’s maddening to see this and see anyone try to rationalize it. It’s irrational to destroy the department then turn around and be like we don’t know why it’s like this, we’re working on it. It’s like this because they systematically dismantled it. I watched it happen in my short time there. I adored quite a few of my professors, but they were the ones who really pushed us and taught us valuable lessons and skills- because they cared. Valuing the success of hardworking students over the University’s thinly veiled subterfuge is clearly not allowed. But if the University were transparent they wouldn’t receive tuition from potential non-Catholic students or students who want a substantial education complete with opportunities. I wish I could warn every single one to really do their research before accepting.
@bellaanima7786 Oh, absolutely. It’s been going on for too long. I’m sickened by the treatment and the abuse of students and faculty. ‘Catholic’ means universal-that’s a mark of the Church. I think UST would do well to remember that fundamental Catholic teaching.
All universities have been taken over.
100% placement last year? That’s an outright lie. I can name more than one graduate from the top of the class who do not have gainful employment yet. I say more than one because I am one.
Yep, just one of the President’s many bizarre and easily debunked lies. Ludwick came with these absurd robotic non-responses and was unprepared for students pushing back on his b.s.
A year? It’s taken more than a year to deal with it and the unidentified person speaking up thinks it should take more time? It isn’t unfolding, just like all the complaints they gaslit us about when I was there. They are burying it. This is an absolute farce.
Being an alumni I am out of the loop, they have terminated Dr. Wright? And the other amazing instructors listed? It really shows their hand, if so. Lord forbid instructors care about their students’ futures.
Soooo.... You are asking Catholics who have been Raping & Abusing Children for Centuries and continually, covering it up, even today! Yet, you are asking them about Truth, Honesty & Transparency? My question is; How Stupid are YOU???
