The last day of class hits differently when you can name what a place gave you and what you helped build while you were there. We’re joined by Rockhurst seniors Langston Humphrey and Davis Long, two student leaders who’ve helped strengthen the Black Student Union while balancing speech and debate, mock trial, and athletics.

Their stories trace how a Jesuit, all-boys school builds confidence, c...
A feast becomes a lifeline when a community decides tradition should serve people, not just nostalgia. We sit down with student leaders Nick Pizzachino and Charlie Bondi to explore how Rockhurst High School’s St. Joseph’s Table blends Sicilian heritage, faith, and hands-on service to support the Wyandotte County Pregnancy Center. From ornate breads and cookies to the sawdust that honors a carpenter saint, every detail points beyond celebration toward solidarity—proceeds, donated goods, and le...
