President Steve & Amy Minnis

In this episode of The Always A Raven podcast, host Janelle Menz sits down with President Steve and Amy Minnis to talk about their journey—from students at Benedictine College to becoming two of its most recognizable faces.

They reflect on how they each ended up at Benedictine, how they met, and what really happened on that now-famous first date. They also share what life looked like in the years between graduation and their return to campus 20 years ago, and how Steve ultimately stepped into the role of college president.

It’s a candid conversation about decisions, timing, and the unexpected ways people—and places—shape our stories.
