The Impact of the Brothers
When Patrick Dougherty ’57 transferred from an elite Jesuit boarding school in Wisconsin to Archbishop Hoban High School in the summer of 1954, he immediately felt a difference in the air from the Holy Cross Brothers who taught, served and ran the school.
“The Holy Cross spirituality gave you room to breathe, I guess you could say,” Dougherty recounts. “It wasn’t a stifling version of faith; they allowed you to grapple with all of those ideas coming into your mind but did so in a disciplined environment that allowed space to orient your values.”
