  CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: St. Thomas Aquinas
The style of St. Thomas is a medium between the rough expressiveness of some Scholastics and the fastidious elegance of John of Salisbury; it is remarkable for accuracy, brevity, and completeness.
Minds were formed in accordance with the principles of St. Thomas; he became the great master, exercising a world-wide influence on the opinions of men and on their writings; for even those who did not adopt all of his conclusions were obliged to give due consideration to his opinions.
From the prologue to the "Summa" it is clear that St. Thomas was opposed to all that was superfluous and confusing in Scholastic studies.

 Saint Thomas Parish
The advent of parish councils and parish boards of education was in tune with the times, coinciding with the desire of most pastors for increased lay consultation, with lay predominance among parochial school faculties, and with the need for lay volunteers in countless areas of parish life.
The format chosen was an elected council of 12 lay members; the parish priests and a representative of the religious women of the parish were members ex officio.
