Abstrakt: The COVID-19 pandemic drastically affected the operations of Catholic Higher Education Institutions (CHEIs) in the United States. St. Thomas University (STU), Miami Lakes, FL, captures its responses to the pandemic in a storytelling format that includes integration of the Catholic Intellectual Tradition (CIT). This is reflected in the distinctive Catholic culture of the campus community. The unique integration of commonly accepted CIT core principles for Catholic higher education from the Association of Catholic Colleges and Universities (ACCU) imbued into the response planning process offers a distinguishing story perspective. The activation of a center for Pandemic Disaster and Quarantine (PDQ) Research is among the outcomes from intentional planning to meet the current and forward-looking needs of the greater STU communities served. STU demonstrated an ability to remain faithful to the values proclaimed in its vision and mission statements while concomitantly adhering to the virtues of the school's patron namesake, St. Thomas of Villanova. The account and story outline recommendations in the CIT for review and future study. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
