“Thanks for taking the time to join us and our partners at PCI in the first installment of our St. Thomas High School Alumni Oral History project. In honor of the school’s 125th anniversary, this endeavor will allow us to capture your stories and memories while we update information from our alumni worldwide. Please take the time to share your experience and some simple contact information with them, enabling us to produce our most comprehensive listing of Eagle Brothers. Thank you in advance, and let my team know if there are any issues or concerns you may have that need to be addressed. 125 years of Eagle Pride! #EFND”

Frequently Asked Questions by Alumni

I received an email/postcard/phone call from a company asking for my personal information and a story about St. Thomas High School. Tell me more about the project.2025-06-05T16:02:40-05:00

We have partnered with PCI (also known as Publishing Concepts) to produce an Oral History Publication and Alumni Directory for St. Thomas High School. PCI is a family-owned business based in Dallas, TX that has published directories for educational institutions, fraternities, sororities, and military organizations across the nation for over 100 years. This project allows us to hear about your personal experiences from your time at STH and how the school helped to shape your life since then. And, while we have you on the phone, we want to make sure your contact information is up to date.

Does St. Thomas benefit from this at all?2025-06-05T16:03:43-05:00

Yes, in a few different ways:

  • Updated Information – allows us to effectively communicate with and engage alumni
  • Legacy – sharing and collecting stories preserves the history of our school
  • Pride – wearing apparel shows support and love for our school
How do I know my information will only be used for Oral History Project and Alumni Directory purposes?2025-06-05T16:04:11-05:00

PCI is committed to protecting your information. The names, addresses and information provided to PCI for the Oral History Project will be held confidential by PCI, except to the extent that they are utilized in, or in the preparation of, the Oral History Project and except as required by court order or law.

I would like to verify or update my information and share a story. How can I do this?2025-06-05T16:05:27-05:00
  • If you received a postcard or an email with a telephone number, you may call the number to speak with a real, live human being representing the STH Oral History Project. The representative will verify the information we have on file for you, make any updates where needed, and then ask you to share your story about your time at St. Thomas. Your story will be recorded, and the sound clip provided to STH at the conclusion of the project.
  • If you have received an email with an embedded link, you may go to the online site to review your information and submit a story.
  • If you did not receive a postcard or email, you may call the St. Thomas Alumni Office at 713-864-6348.
  • If you are living internationally or are unable to call the update line, please email customerservice@publishingconcepts.com. PCI will send you a personalized link for you to share your written story and photo.
Can I choose what information prints in the directory?2025-06-05T16:06:05-05:00

The only information that is included in the publication is your name, class year and degree, along with your story and photo. No contact information is printed. When you call to update your contact information, it will only be used to update your alumni record for the school/alumni association. You may revoke consent for your story and/or photo to appear any time before 05/01/2026 by contacting PCI’s customer service helpdesk at 1-800-982-1590 / customerservice@publishingconcepts.com or to the STH Office of Alumni directly at alumni@sths.org.

I updated my information but need some more time to think about what experience to share.2025-06-05T16:06:38-05:00

You can call back any time before 04/01/2026 to share your story.

I shared a story and the representative said I could send a photo. How do I do this?2025-06-05T16:07:03-05:00

You will receive an email with a link to upload one photo (black and white or color) plus a caption.
If you have also purchased a book but do not have an email address on file, you will be sent a photo mailer to send a physical photo in to be printed (note: the photo will be returned if you include a self-addressed, stamped envelope).

Can anyone purchase a book?2025-06-05T16:07:28-05:00

The St. Thomas High School Oral History Publication is available for sale only to STH alumni. You will be listed in the directory whether you decide to purchase a copy or not.

When will I receive my directory?2025-06-05T16:07:49-05:00

The total duration of the directory project is about 12-14 months. Since we began the project in May 2025, the directories will be distributed from June through July 2026.

I ordered a directory/package over the phone and would like to cancel my order. How do I do this?2025-06-05T16:08:21-05:00
