The Power of Small Podcast
The Power of Small Podcast
20 OCT. 2021 · Built in 1937, the “T” served as Rosemont College’s first student center. Great friendships and good times began there - the place to be on campus to escape the routines of college life, and to meet with the “boys of fall” in the 1930s, 40s, 50s, and 60s.
But as the College evolved, so too did the need for the white cottage. The "T" was closed in 1965 when a new “T” was built, and converted into a mail room and bookstore. As time passed, the old “T” would be used for office space and even storage — ultimately becoming barren and taken down in 2003.
In this special podcast episode, Jayson Boyers and Joe Darrah speak with alumnae Veronica Ahern ’68, Pat Carbine ’52, and Eileen McMonagle ’75 about the place that the “T” holds in Rosemont’s storied history.
We also reveal plans for a Ghost T-House that's coming to campus for Oktoberfest.
6 OCT. 2021 · Rosemont College’s Centennial Year is upon us. Beginning in September 2021 and ending in June 2022, the College will mark its 100th Anniversary with a celebration befitting this milestone.

The first Hispanic American bishop of Philadelphia, His Excellency discusses the concepts of diversity and belonging as they relate to his mission for the archdiocese and about his return to the city of Philadelphia, where he has established many deep roots as a priest, educator, and parishioner.
His Excellency also shares his impressions of Rosemont following his recent visit to campus and how he sees our College's community, as well as the surrounding community, helping to contribute to his mission and vision as he seeks to help the archdiocese through challenges related to the pandemic, social unrest, and the lingering impact of the Church's abuse scandal.
1 ABR. 2021 · Jayson Boyers and Joe Darrah interview Erin Hennicke, an alumna from the Class of 1992. Erin shares stories about her career as a film and TV director at Franklin & Siegal Associates, the largest literary scouting agency in New York City, and her background in working with authors, agents, and Hollywood elite, including Stephen King and Barbra Streisand, to turn books into film. One of her recent adaptation projects involves Station Eleven for HBO.
We also learn about Erin's unique and inspiring story as a Rosemont transfer student who didn't realize at first that a smaller school was everything that she was looking for in a college and how a somewhat impromptu trip to Rosemont changed everything for the development of her own story.

We also discuss how alumni and the College community at large can be a positive presence as sports are re-introduced and gain some insight on Rosemont's recent addition of men’s baseball and women's track, which are poised to be introduced in the near future.
22 FEB. 2021 · Jayson Boyers and Joe Darrah interview Meghan Haley, the College's Vice President for Enrollment and Marketing, about the process of recruiting and enrolling the "ideal" student to Rosemont and how the Power of Small brand may evolve.

We also discuss the optimism that she has in younger populations, namely today's college students, who have the opportunity and the potential to create a more creative future for all of us through a person-centered approach to conversation.
