In late October 2025, President Dave Stec ’86, Vice President of Advancement Tony Shuman ’91, and Director of Alumni & Constituent Relations Elaine Heinzerling ’86 met with alumni and friends during the Presidential Tour stop in Cincinnati, Ohio.
“One of the greatest privileges of my role is having the opportunity to visit our alumni on their home turf,” said Shuman. “We get to hear stories, share some laughs, and see how Padua continues to shape lives long after graduation.”
The Presidential Tour in Cincinnati began by visiting with recent Padua graduates on college campuses. Young alumni gatherings were held at Buffalo Wild Wings on the campuses of Miami University and the University of Cincinnati.
The Presidential Tour concluded with a reception at Moerlein Lager House. Padua alumni ranging from the Class of 1968 to the Class of 2021 were in attendance.
Stec shared, “The Presidential Tour allows us to reconnect with Bruins, celebrate their accomplishments, and share the exciting momentum happening on our campus today. Padua Franciscan is fully alive, and every stop on the Presidential Tour reminds us that the Padua family is strong, vibrant, and everywhere.”
Additional 2026 Presidential Tour stops include: Naples, Florida in February and Arizona in March. More details will be shared in the coming months.
