Kathy and Elise Berg
Growing up watching her mom Kathy (Liske) Berg (’88) teach with such passion and energy, Elise Berg (’19) knew she wanted to become a Catholic School teacher just like her.
Kathy chose Briar Cliff because she wanted a Catholic college close to home, yet far enough away. She ended up meeting her husband, playing her two favorite sports, making friendships that have stood the test of time, and watching her younger siblings graduate after her.
“A Catholic education was super important to me. I felt like I was going to meet like-minded people in their faith which was going to help me be stronger in mine as an adult,” Kathy says.
