More than five decades after first walking through Central Catholic’s doors, Emmett Brennan ’73 still credits the school with shaping his outlook on life. As a shy student who found confidence through caring teachers, especially Sr. Mary Lonergan, OSF, Emmett discovered a lifelong love of learning and critical thinking that guided his career and worldview. Grateful for the foundation Central Catholic provided, he has chosen to leave a legacy gift to ensure future generations experience the same transformative education. His continued support reflects a deep belief in the power of faith, compassion, and education to change lives.

The Winter 2025 magazine features Princess Bass-Mason '19, who discovered her passion for storytelling through film while studying at the University of Oregon. From creating a documentary on Klamath-Modoc-Yahooskin (Paiute) language revitalization with a borrowed camera to advocating for Native language programs, she highlights the resilience and cultural strength of Indigenous communities. Now applying for grants to remaster her film, she hopes to continue sharing these stories while pursuing a master’s in linguistics.
