Afterward, he, his wife and five children, relocated to New Hampshire, where the couple co-founded a classical-curriculum high school. A few years later, the Catholic University of America recruited him to lead its finance program.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Throughout his diversely accomplished experiences, the role that has forever touched his heart is the original one \u2014 service as a Swiss Guard to St. John Paul II. Enzler\u2019s recently published book, \u201cI Served a Saint,\u201d recounts his fascinating conversations with the pope and illustrates what he subsequently learns and shares.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to Pope John Paul II, Enzler also met Mother Teresa, and it may be these two saints influences that stoke Enzler\u2019s impressive drive to contribute and inspire at UST as if he is repeatedly pressing \u201cstart\u201d on that imaginary timer. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To apply or for more information, go to <a href=\"http:\/\/stthom.edu\/MSB\">stthom.edu\/MSB<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/stthom.edu\/MEAM\">stthom.edu\/MEAM<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mario Enzler, the new dean of the Cameron School of Business and former Swiss Guard who served a Saint. \u2014 Pope John Paul II \u2014 introduced a new Master of Science in Business degree for non-business majors (MSB) and, for members of the clergy, a M.S. in Ecclesial Administration and Management (MEAM) program.
