2011-2012 Annual Report

In August, as students began registering for the 2012-2013 school year, Blair completed the first phase of a series of extensive upgrades to the School’s entrances and maintenance facilities, which included new landscaping (please see full story and pictures on page 10). The photos at right and on the front cover are by Cassi Gerdsen, who joined Blair’s communications office as the school photographer in August 2012.

ince June, when Monie and I announced that this would be our last year at Blair, the two most common questions have been “what will you do?” and “how are you feeling about your last year?” The answer to the first question is straightforward: Monie and I are planning on a full year off, using our South Carolina home as a base and hoping to travel, and then we shall see what is next. Of course, whatever happens will not be an attempt to recreate our lives at Blair. This is where we have raised our three daughters—the oldest of whom was recently married under the Blair Arch on a perfect August day. Most importantly, Blair is where we have committed the heart of our professional energy and watched our family and nearly a quarter of a century of Blair students grow up. Whatever happens after Blair (or “however far we roam”), as for so many faculty before us, Blair will always be home. Still, the actual departure is many months away, three long seasons filled with Parents Weekend, Peddie Day, the December holidays, winter in boarding school, the coming of spring and the blooming of the magnolia tree, Alumni Weekend (in May this year) and, ultimately, graduation and the ascension of another senior class. And those are just the big, predictable, immutable traditions of every school year, many of which stretch back over a century. The reality of Blair is the routine of each day, the structure of the classrooms and playing fields, the relationships between teachers and students, all of which are the building blocks of any human enterprise that aspires to be a true community. Keeping busy and fully engaged is the theme for our last year at Blair. Just consider the way school opens. As classes commence, Monie and I rise each morning to arrive first in the Romano Dining Hall to take attendance for all boarding freshmen and sophomores required to sign in for breakfast. In doing so, we get to know their names, check them out as we check them in, and develop a playful interplay in the first moments of their day and in the first days of their Blair careers. Like so many of the routines of life here, signing those boys and girls in is important, purposeful and fun. Those first days of school are as memorable as they are important: we get to know the sharp, fresh early risers, the zombie-like boys and girls who are not at

h e a d m a s t e r

first sleeping well and the scattered, breathless check-in of those late to breakfast (and probably everything else). Inevitably, some new students are homesick and a bit sad in those first few days, but there is a wonderful evolution that takes place as their initially confused and apprehensive faces become increasingly more animated, smiling and confident as they yield finally to the powerful current of the new Blair year. Having observed this transformation for years, I am amazed but comforted that the progress of the first week seems always the same. In the weeks ahead, we shall depart from our dining hall duties and switch from early mornings to late nights. There are four or five regional admission receptions, some two hours away. Then there are the frequent dinners, meetings and other engagements in New York, or some similarly distant town or city. Meanwhile, the days at school are filled with planning, meetings, attending games, hosting student gatherings at Sharpe House and, soon, hosting our successors as the search process moves forward. In short, the school year is always, always busy and filled with worthwhile, purposeful, fun and serious events. The Blair day is a compelling balance and interplay of daily structure with always-present opportunities for making a positive impact on others. What sort of life can compare to the variety and purpose of living and working in a good boarding school? Of course, I really cannot say—nor can Monie—since the academic year is largely what we have known and have lived our entire lives. At this point, in the autumn of an exciting new year, we are merely curious about what will happen next. Later, as the year matures, the snows of winter melt, a new season turns and our departure looms nearer, I have no doubt other feelings will crowd out the curiosity. We shall see, but for now Blair seems reassuringly familiar, humming along, promising that the future will be fine. And so are we.

s I watch the daily progress of the front entrance construction, I wait with eager anticipation for the final trees to be planted and stones to be laid— this project, like any campus construction undertaking, will only enhance the beauty of Blair’s landscape and further the excitement of prospective students about becoming Buccaneers. This year, my role at Blair has changed, and while the daily events of student life will always remain central to my work, welcoming future families and introducing them to this learning community has become my new charge. As a result, my focus has shifted away from organizing student leader retreats and arranging Saturday night activities. Instead, I am concentrating

on greeting every campus visitor and traveling to many different communities to share the Blair experience with prospective families. Our past year in admission was extremely successful. Due in part to the very positive academic and social experience of our students and their favorable college outcomes, our applications reached a record 798— representing a 3% increase from the previous season’s all-time high—while our acceptance rate dropped to 33% and our admission yield (the percentage of students who accepted our offer of admission) rose to 60%. These impressive numbers are a clear sign of our School’s growing national reputation and the increasing belief in the value of a Blair education. This September, we welcomed the largest freshman class in Blair history (88 students) among a very strong group of new students. The diversity of Blair’s student body makes it a truly global community, as we now have students from 27 different countries, including Austria, United Arab Emirates, Colombia, Cyprus, Vietnam, Macao and Mexico, all countries that are increasingly represented by members of Blair’s student body. Incoming students also hail from highly regarded organizations such as METROsquash, the Boys Club of New York, KIPP (Atlanta and New York), the Oliver Scholars program and New Jersey SEEDS. Finally, we have a Caroline D. Bradley Scholar, a highly selective and prestigious award given to exceptionally gifted students who have demonstrated

academic and personal excellence. These new students will quickly immerse themselves in the Blair community, rituals and traditions, embracing life as Buccaneers. In addition to welcoming new students, the admission office welcomed new staff members as well. Teddy Wenner ’96, associate dean of admission, grew up in the Blair community as a faculty child (his mother, Judith Wenner, was the chair of the language department and a faculty member for 20 years). Teddy matriculated to the United States Military Academy at West Point, where he earned a BS in European history. Upon entering the Army as a field artillery officer, he spent most of his career deployed in Macedonia, Turkey and Iraq. Following his military career, Teddy entered the business world in Arizona and Seattle, Wash. Peter G. Curran Blair BuLLETIN 5

He is very excited to return to Blair, and in addition to working in admission, he will be coaching lacrosse and living with his family in Insley Hall. Admission associate Andee McEvoy joined our office in fall 2012 following a semester as a ceramics and sculpture teacher. She graduated from Amherst College in 2011 with a double major in geology and the history of art. A resident of Locke Hall, Andee will teach advanced placement art history and coach girls’ lacrosse. Finally, two new admission counselors joined the staff: Tom Dougherty and Marguerite Fulton. Tom is the 2012-2013 Levinson Faculty Fellow, and in addition to his work in admission, he will coach crew and teach English. Tom was a communications and journalism major at the University of Pennsylvania, where he earned a BA in 2007. Marguerite earned her BA in history with a concentration in leadership studies and a language certificate in German from Williams College in 2012. She will also be teaching history and coaching field hockey, lacrosse and basketball. Rounding out our staff are George O’Connor and Paul Clavel ’88, who remain

As we prepare for another busy admission season, we are exploring new markets in the United States and abroad, so we look forward to connecting with many alumni on the road. Teddy, in conjunction with the advancement office, will be reaching out to alumni who would like to become more active in helping spread the message about Blair to prospective families in their communities. Throughout the summer, we greeted many students who will be applying for the 2013-2014 school year, and our office remains eager to welcome them and their families to the Blair community. As many students hear about Blair through our extensive alumni and parent networks, there is clearly no better testimonial for the School than the enthusiastic recommendation from trusted colleagues, family members and friends—so please encourage any students for whom Blair would be an excellent fit to contact the admission office and visit campus.

Attending Blair is a Family Affair As dean of admission Peter Curran noted in his article on the state of admission in 2012 (please see page 4), one of the most powerful tools that Blair has at its disposal are the enthusiastic recommendations of colleagues, friends

and family members who know firsthand what the School has to offer. No where is this more evident than in the list of current student legacies. More than 25 percent of the School’s student body have a family connection to Blair.

School Entrance Renovations Are a

Change

ork commenced this summer on extensive upgrades to the School’s entrances and maintenance facilities in a project designed to bring the beauty of Blair’s hilltop to the campus approach on Park Street. In keeping with the goals of the 2011 strategic plan, the completed renovations will create a positive, inviting first impression for all campus visitors. The first phase of renovations encompassed the main entrance and front hill and included opening up the vistas on the front hill; adding new trees of differing varieties; repairing and repaving the main road; upgrading irrigation, drainage structures and curbing; and improving the landscaping and walkways in front of the Insley Hall porch. In subsequent weeks, the stone walls along Park Street were refurbished, new stone walls were constructed at the golf course entrance and the landscaping in each of these areas was enhanced with abundant and varied planting material. As the year progresses, the Park Street maintenance buildings and barns will also be modernized and refurbished not only to enhance their appearance,

but also to make them more functional, as these facilities are critical to maintaining the School’s campus and buildings. Trustee Rob Sigety ’75, chair of the Buildings and Grounds Committee, noted that the Committee spent considerable time evaluating Blair’s “entrance

experience,” traffic patterns and maintenance facilities to determine the plan of action for this important strategic initiative. “The completed upgrades will result in substantial improvement to both the east and west entrances,” he said, “making them more compatible with our significantly enhanced campus appearance.”

Two New Blair Residence Halls on the

Hori zon

At the 2012 opening faculty meetings, Headmaster Chan Hardwick announced that, with the help of a significant lead gift, Blair is ready to move forward with planning and fundraising for two new dormitories that will include six new faculty residences and 89 student beds. “The Trustees are committed to maintaining the School’s enrollment at 450 students,” Mr. Hardwick told the faculty. “The new dorms will address what must be fixed now, strengthen admission and, at the same time, maintain the sense of community that is critical to who we are as a School.” “East and Davies have come to the end of their useful life as dormitories,” continued Mr. Hardwick. “After studying the cost of renovation and the significant logistical challenges, it was

12 Fall 2012

clear to the Board that new construction would be necessary. Taking advantage of this opportunity, we will finally be able to achieve greater flexibility and balance in enrolling equal numbers of girls and boys in the School.” The new dormitories—one for upper-school girls and one for boys—will be located at the top of the front drive, overlooking Blair Lake, one of the most

visible and picturesque sites on campus. East Hall, originally constructed as the School’s gymnasium and pool, suffers from antiquated heating and plumbing systems, bathroom space located in the basement and other structural issues. Current plans call for East and Davies to potentially serve as “swing space” as other residences are updated and as the Trustees consider their optimal future use. “Improving the quality of housing for Blair’s faculty is one of the key initiatives of the 201116 Strategic Plan, and these dorms will help us

to accomplish this goal as well,” said Chairman of the Board James P. Jenkins ’66. “At present, the Board is reviewing architectural plans and considering a timetable for moving forward.” In discussing the Strategic Plan, Mr. Jenkins noted that the School’s two most pressing physical needs are upgrading dormitory space and expanding Bogle Hall to meet the School’s growing math and science needs. “These capital projects will keep us focused and moving forward,” he concluded.

Sophomore Public Speaking Competition

Graduation

Speak Your Mind: Public Speaking at Blair Whether it’s speaking to a class of 10 or to a room of 400, Blair helps each and every student learn the importance of good communication. —Haven Donovan ’13

While public speaking has always been a part of the School’s program, the 2011 Strategic Plan’s emphasis on superior academic preparation brought new focus to effective public speaking as a hallmark of a Blair education. Developing Blair’s

History class

Across the Curriculum Blair teachers incorporate a variety of assignments into their classes and curricula to develop students’ public speaking skills. As a result, beginning freshman year, these skills are regularly taught and reinforced, making students aware of the hallmarks of effective speech and how they can improve the content, language and delivery of their presentations. During the 2011-2012 school year, nearly all Blair courses included opportunities for public speaking. “We know, however, that it is not simply through formal presentations and speeches that students acquire public speaking skills; rather, it is through the encouragement they receive each day in the classroom and the expectation that they sharpen their analytical abilities, organize their thoughts, speak and listen effectively, and present cogent, persuasive arguments,” said English teacher Charles Danhof, who oversees Blair’s public speaking program. “These aspects of classroom life lead students to become better public speakers.”

Senior Public Speaking Competition

Panel discussion

Beyond the Classroom Blair students often first gain experience speaking in front of larger audiences at Monday and Friday School Meetings and at weekly Chapel and Vespers services. Friday School Meeting is run entirely by the Senior Class Council, and over the course of their Blair careers, nearly all students will gain practice and confidence by speaking in this public setting. Since 2002, Blair has hosted an annual senior class public speaking contest in May that has become a highly anticipated, campus-wide event. During the spring semester, seniors present speeches in their English classes, and the finalists speak before a full audience in Armstrong-Hipkins Center for the Arts. Given the success of the senior contest, Blair began a similar contest in 2011 for sophomores, which is attended by the entire sophomore class, as well as many others in the community. In addition to these annual speech competitions, Blair students take part in local and regional activities

The way Blair has intertwined the art of public speaking into the community has strengthened my confidence when speaking in front of my classmates and even the entire School. Since public speaking is now a part of my day-to-day life, I feel comfortable when I am engaged in conversation or discussion. —Jack Wedholm ’13

where they further hone their public speaking skills: Model United Nations at Columbia University and the University of Pennsylvania; Poetry Out Loud, a poetry recitation contest; and the Princeton Prize in Race Relations Symposium. Student Impact Blair’s focused approach on teaching effective public speaking has significantly impacted students and alumni, who report that their experience at Blair provided them with essential skills and practice, giving them the confidence to speak more openly and effectively in their college classrooms and in professional settings. As seniors graduate, each member of the class is interviewed by a member of the faculty who asks them to reflect on their Blair experience. Many seniors note that their training in discourse and speaking—as challenging as it first seemed—was one of the qualities they appreciated most about their education at Blair.

The sophomore public speaking contest gave me a chance to recognize my weaknesses in expressing my ideas effectively and to confront those flaws with the help of my English teacher and classmates. —Annie An ’13

A Conversation with Assistant Heads

Rachel Stone & Ryan Pagotto on Blair’s Next Chapter

At Blair, being an administrator means more than simply knowing students well and helping them respond to the challenges they face. It also means being proactive, planning for the future, and providing the right balance of structure and support required for a community of 450 adolescents and 85 faculty members to live together happily and successfully. Fortunately for Blair students, the School has a well-defined administration uniquely equipped to do just that. To learn more about how Blair’s new assistant headmasters plan to address specific issues and support Blair’s values, I sat down with Ryan Pagotto and Rachel Stone as they prepared for the opening of School. —Suzy Logan

Blair has long been known for is its close-knit community and the faculty’s support of students. How do each of you plan to promote this culture and reinforce it in your new positions? Pagotto: If I had to pick just one specific venue where there is a regular opportunity to reinforce this culture, I’d have to choose School Meeting. Twice a week, the entire community—students and faculty— gather in Armstrong-Hipkins Center for the Arts. Although the meetings often include announcements, seasonal reminders and housekeeping details, School Meeting is also a forum for celebrating student accomplishments and acknowledging academic achievement—congratulating athletes on their successes, commending artists for their performances and discussing important issues in their lives. Over the course of a year, we come to know and appreciate the talented individuals who make up the Blair community.

16 Fall 2012

Stone: To be sure, Blair’s focus on students is simply woven into how faculty members do their jobs. That said, we promote this culture in a number of ways, beginning with our hiring process. Right from the start, our aim is to bring teaching faculty to Blair who are not only bright, accomplished and passionate about their fields, but who are also “kid-people.” Blair faculty members enjoy the time they spend with students in the classrooms, on the fields and stages, and in the dormitories. We also emphasize the importance of developing good communication and feedback loops so that faculty members learn to respond reflectively to students. Throughout professional development, we reinforce the importance of Blair’s focus on superior academic preparation and helping students to be successful. One of The Seven Principles—communicate, communicate, communicate—includes our expectation that we talk with our students about their strengths and challenges as we keep the academic, athletic and residential bar high

and help students to reach and surpass it. Going forward, we will continue to hire and train the outstanding teachers who, more than any building or program, are responsible for the excellence of a Blair education.

Among the reasons Blair restructured its administration this summer was to ensure that the issues that the School faces are approached from both student and faculty perspectives. Why is this combined approach so important? Pagotto: We know that what makes the Blair community vibrant is how closely students and faculty members live and work together. Because most school issues have a faculty and a student life component, it’s critical to consider both angles. Some examples of this convergence are the annual negotiation around the academic and social balance of Peddie Week or the discussions in a Rules and Discipline Committee hearing. In R&D, as difficult as some cases may be, faculty and students meet together and consider community values and standards of conduct, making it a learning experience on both sides. Stone: Although faculty and students indeed have different perspectives, both are essential to how we make critical decisions and, ultimately, sustain a healthy culture. I think it is important to understand that there isn’t a divide that needs to be bridged between teachers and students—rather, when instances of divergent opinions arise, as in those Ryan mentioned, the avenues of communication are wide open and frequently traveled.

Can you talk even more specifically about what Blair does that is perhaps different from other schools? Pagotto: The fact that our students choose their own advisor sets Blair apart from most schools, and I believe it ultimately leads to stronger faculty/student relationships. Students appreciate the fact that we trust them to make this important decision each year. As seniors prepare to graduate, our faculty conduct “exit interviews” during which they ask seniors to reflect on their time at Blair. Seniors continually cite their advisors, their prefects and many individual classroom teachers who encouraged

and inspired them to excel. Our approach to dorm duty also sets us apart from other schools. Blair faculty are an active presence during their duty night, walking the halls and checking in with students rather than staying in their apartments doing their own work. Many boarding schools have taken a more laissez-faire approach to dorm duty, but at Blair, we strongly believe that young people thrive when there are adults present and involved in their lives. Stone: Another reason we know our students so well is that we talk with one another about Blair kids all the time—their performance in class, their focus and organization in the dorm, their potential as leaders, their social experiences, and their strengths and weaknesses. Beyond this ongoing, daily communication, we also meet as a full faculty to discuss the progress of each individual Blair student four times a year. The many hours we spend in those meetings give us a foundation and a perspective that is unique to Blair. One other example of Blair’s different approach is our commitment to the value of personal relationships over the cultural push toward technological communication. Blair students sit with their friends and teachers at familystyle dinner. We work to establish a cultural norm absent the ubiquitous cell phone. Students may use phones in their dorms and to occasionally check their schedules, but they walk through campus greeting each other rather than reading e-mail or texting. We try to teach values that challenge Blair kids to think beyond themselves and participate in the community around them. We want them to understand the difference between being good at something and being good human beings.

How does having teachers who know them well impact students’ academic growth? Stone: Frankly, this is straightforward: when teachers know their students well, they know if those students are learning or not. Blair is full of experienced, professional teachers, experts in their subject matter, who are passionate and enthusiastic about what they teach—but equally important, who know their students well. That means at any given point in class or during the year, they are connecting, challenging and questioning students— meeting them where they are and pushing them to the next level of inquiry and understanding. Blair BuLLETIN 17

What is the biggest challenge you face in your job this year?

How do you balance your professional and personal lives?

Pagotto: It might be the thought of following in former assistant headmaster Dave Low’s footsteps! Fortunately, I am joined in the Student Life Office by two highly capable deans, Carm Mazza and Jessica Matzkin, and by Carolyn Conforti-Browse, who works with our senior prefects. We are also joined by a veteran group of housemasters, who truly are on the front lines. At Blair, there is an absolute sense of shared responsibility for students. The pace of life at Blair is fast, and students are constantly pushing for more…I consider my job to be staying abreast of all that is happening in the life of the school, communicating well with all constituencies, including parents, and managing the community’s dayto-day life in such a way that allows kids both to pursue their academic and individual goals and to strengthen their character.

Pagotto: My wife, Jen, is chair of the performing arts department, and we live on campus with our one-yearold son, Jack, so we are immersed in the community both professionally and personally. Living and working in a boarding school is really more of a calling than a job; you have to love students and enjoy periods of intensity punctuated by generous reprieves. Fortunately, Jen and I both enjoy that rhythm. As we speak, students are arriving and we’re about to kick off the new school year…the energy and anticipation invigorates us. And from my perspective as the former dean of admission, I’m looking forward to seeing new students with whom I worked in the admission process make their way into the community. Likewise, Jen is eager to see her musical repertoire for the various ensembles come together as new musicians join accomplished veterans on stage.

Stone: Blair faculty lead full and demanding lives. I see my greatest challenge as creating avenues for professional growth and rejuvenation for my colleagues. The passion and expertise our teachers bring to Blair classrooms is extraordinary; my job is to help inspire and sustain the energy and talent of the Blair faculty so that they can excel as academic leaders and love doing so.

Stone: My husband, Jim, is Blair’s director of athletics and head football and baseball coach. We met at Blair in the fall of 1994 (we were both assigned to lead the recycling program), and so we have “grown up” professionally at Blair in the years since. I believe that once you make the decision to be “all in” at the same school, you reap the benefits of understanding the pace and patterns of each other’s days.

Now that we are raising two sons at Blair—Cullen, 8, and Kip, 6—we can’t imagine another life that would allow us all to love the same place so deeply; the boys see Jim’s players as big brothers and cheer for the Bucs louder than any parent could. I suppose our aim is not, in fact, “balance,” but rather an understanding that Blair is both work and home and that we are fortunate to bring up the boys immersed in Blair’s culture and community. Pagotto: One other important note worth mentioning is the new Childcare Learning Center, which has been central to Jen’s and my ability to maintain balance. Jack spends a good deal of his time at this wonderful community within the Blair community, and we’re grateful to the Trustees for making this a priority and to the superb teachers who work there.

Correction: In the summer issue of the Blair Bulletin, the “Skeptics at 35” article erroneously identified Ann Smith as a representative for the U.S.’s Ulster Unionist Party. Ann was a representative for Northern Ireland’s Ulster Unionist Party.

How will you support the new Head of School?

Stone: Ryan and I, along with chief operating officer Jim Frick and the rest of a seasoned administrative team, are committed to supporting the new Head of School in a way that represents the best of the Blair culture, while still allowing room for the change and improvement that comes with new leadership. We have a lot of people who will log a lot of hours—without a lot of ego—to make sure that the new Head is successful. The best leaders establish a structure and culture that carries on after they depart, and the Hardwicks have done just that. Pagotto: In terms of what specifically represents the best of Blair’s culture, I think it is embodied by what I see as Chan and Monie’s legacy: their true love for and support of students. The Hardwicks are both educators in the very best sense of the word: they truly enjoy kids, and to use one of Chan’s favorite terms, they have “with-it-ness.” As busy as they have both been with administrative concerns and travel to see alumni and parents, they always make time for students, and you’d be hard-pressed to find a kid who hasn’t been the recipient of a post-concert, post-game, post-whatever pat on the back or hug from one of them. We will work with the new Head of School to carry this legacy forward.

Faculty Update Quint Clarke ’87 This spring, history teacher Quint Clarke ’87 received a $5,000 grant from the Stanton Foundation as part of its “Innovation in Civics Education” program. He will use the money to fund a yet-to-be-determined project during the 2012-2013 academic year.

and female vocal registration, vowel modification, vocal health for both performers and teachers, ageappropriate repertoire and the physiological aspects of singing. At MTSI, she studied recording and audio production, music notation and publishing software, accompaniment and practice programs and project design for the classroom.

Peter Curran This summer, Blair’s Dean of Admission Peter Curran partnered with the deans of students at Phillips Exeter and Milton Academy to host a conference called “The Dean’s Roundtable,” at which attendees from 25 U.S. day and boarding schools came together to discuss various “hot topics,” including administrative partnerships, personal and professional boundaries, technology, crisis management, advising, disciplinary systems, student life curricula, student leadership and trends in international education.

Michael Eckert History department chair Michael Eckert attended a five-day working conference for secondary school English and history teachers at the Exeter Humanities Institute in New Hampshire in late June. Over the course of five days, he participated in the program as a student and discussion leader, exploring the use of student-centered, discussion-based education loosely described as “the Harkness pedagogy.” In addition to meeting educators from around the United States, he identified ways of introducing many pedagogical components of the curricula into his classes at Blair for the 2012-2013 school year.

Nina Yuen This summer, Blair’s director of video studies Nina Yuen began a master’s of fine art program in film and video at Bard College in Annandale-on-Hudson, N.Y. She will complete the program in summer 2014.

Ryan Pagotto ’97 Assistant Headmaster for Student Life Ryan Pagotto ’97 served as a faculty member and presenter for The Association of Boarding Schools (TABS) annual summer conference, which attracts admission officers and communications directors from boarding schools across the country. The mid-July meeting’s focus was on admission and marketing strategy with presentations and breakout discussions on strategic budgeting, international and domestic markets, mobilizing human capital, tuition and financial aid, developing a digital strategy, serving families through the web, and how social media is reshaping boarding school search and selection. Other faculty members were Peter Upham, executive director of TABS; Kathy Hanson from Marts and Lundy, a consulting firm for non-profits; Michael Gary from Phillips Exeter Academy; Barbara Kennedy from Baylor School; and Red Abbott from the web design firm Silverpoint.

Katy Hylton Over the summer, director of choral music Katy Hylton participated in a series of music workshops at the Eastman School of Music (ESM) in Rochester, N.Y., and the Music Technology Summer Institute (MTSI) in Penfield, N.Y. During a week-long course at ESM, she focused on practical vocal pedagogy, including male

Avery Pierce In August, assistant athletic director Avery Pierce completed two graduate-level classes at Harvard University’s Summer School, one on judgment and decision-making and the other on lessons and principles of leadership.

Post-AP Science Class Focuses on Physics of 20th Century This fall, Blair offered a new science class for students who already passed advanced placement science courses in their sophomore or junior years. Under the guidance of Dr. Michael Sayers, students are exploring how science in the 20th century has defined society’s view of physical laws and their application, including special relativity and nuclear phenomena. The curriculum also covers elementary applications of quantum mechanics, elementary statistical mechanics, the workings of semiconductors and super-conductors, and the laws of general relativity, astronomy and cosmology. “This course is an example of how we are continually refining our department’s offerings in terms of rigor, breadth, interest and applicability,” said Dr. Sayers, who joined Blair’s faculty in 2001 and now chairs the science department. “It certainly gives those students with an interest in physical sciences an advantage in tackling classes beyond first-year college physics and chemistry. While the class does not fully replace universitylevel courses in atomic physics, intermediate mechanics, thermodynamics or cosmology, it gives a rigorous introduction to all of those topics.” Over the years, Blair has seen a rise in the number of students taking AP science classes earlier in their high school careers, which has given them the opportunity to take another AP science course during their junior and senior years. “I hope this class gives students a bit of an edge during the college admission process by exposing them to things that most kids don’t learn until after they graduate from high school,” said Dr. Sayers, who earned his PhD in chemical physics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1980. “Whereas classes in early high school tend to take the approach of learning

fundamentals, testing students and moving on, this class emphasizes the exchange of ideas that is the hallmark of both a Blair and a college education.” Over the course of the year, students will learn to read simple research papers, while focusing on the science—and particularly the physics—of the 20th century, something that most AP classes don’t do. Although for this inaugural course, Dr. Sayers has concrete ideas about what he wants to explore, looking forward, he plans to tailor the curriculum toward the interests of individual students and events of the day.

Students Travel to Kenya on Community Service Trip In June, history teacher Quint Clarke ’87 traveled with a group of Blair students to Lagonia, Kenya, on an annual two-week community service trip, which to date has delivered 5,000 pounds of clothes, shoes, computers and medical supplies to the country. The program has also raised more than $13,000 toward educational programs and established an initiative to bring small-scale windmills that would provide personal electricity to those who currently have none. Among the highlights of this summer’s trip: visiting President Obama’s grandmother; distributing medication to sick villagers and coordinating the treatment of more than 200 Kenyans by an emergency-room doctor; connecting the local high school to electricity for the first time; moving bricks to facilitate the rebuilding of a school; donating a solar panel to Kelvin Serem ’13’s family so that they now have light in their house for the first time ever; fishing for farmed tilapia; and spending time with local kids, many of whom became attached to the Blair students over the course of their visit. “Mostly, what we did was bring smiles to the faces of those who may feel that the world has forgotten them,” said Mr. Clarke. “There really isn’t an equivalent to the ‘American Dream’ in Kenya, and many young people feel destined for a life of poverty and struggle. I will never

22 Fall 2012

forget the interaction between our students and the local kids and how positive this was for everyone. A few years back, a girl from the village told me, ‘When you come here all the way from America, it shows that we matter to the rest of the world and it makes us feel like we have a chance to succeed. Thank you.’ The love that our group showed can go a long way toward inspiring these kids.” Just this year alone, the group brought 500 pounds of medical supplies to Kenya. Dr. Jane Ferry, MD, FACEP, MMM, chief medical officer at Grandview Hospital in Sellersville, Pa., and mother of Ted Peacock ’11, accompanied the students, treating more than 200 people—110 of whom she saw in a single day—during the trip. The students also brought 750 pounds of shoes that they distributed to needy people in the community. “Through contributions from family and friends, we also began construction of the Blair School in Kenya,” said Mr. Clarke. “The first bricks were delivered while we were there, and the plans are in place for a three-room school to be built by Christmas. Each year, we’d like to expand on it until it is a Kenyan Primary School, which is the equivalent of an American elementary and middle school.” Blair students and families are sponsoring 40 Kenyan students in Lagonia, providing them with

school fees, books, pens, paper, shoes, school uniforms and daily lunch. Each year, the program gives four scholarships to the highest achieving eighth-graders in the area—ultimately paying for the top two boys and the top two girls to go to high school, which they otherwise wouldn’t be able to do. “We were also able to add a bit to the Blair Microfinance Company, which now has more than $5,000 and serves over 100 small businesses in the

country,” said Mr. Clarke. “Repayment rates have been extremely high, and the program is a success.” Looking forward, Mr. Clarke and his students plan to bring old computers to the various schools in the area. Last year, the Blair community donated four computers, a printer and a DVD player to the local high school. They also continued to sponsor one young woman’s college tuition as she enters her junior year at Maseno University.

The New York Times Profiles Jack Bogle The New York Times published a story in midAugust on Jack Bogle ’47 and Vanguard, Inc., the company he founded. The article, entitled “A Mutual Fund Master, Too Worried to Rest,” details Mr. Bogle’s dedication to protecting investors and supporting his alma maters, Blair Academy and Princeton University. In addition to talking about the problems that have caused world financial systems to malfunction, he discusses how Vanguard’s client-owned approach has made the company uniquely successful. He also

highlights the importance of fixing the financial system and offers investors sound advice, something into which he delves deeper in his tenth book, The Clash of the Cultures: Investment vs. Speculation, published in 2012 to positive critical reviews. Amazon.com calls Mr. Bogle’s latest book a “provocative and refreshingly candid look at Mr. Bogle’s views on the changing culture in the mutual fund industry, how speculation has invaded our national retirement system, the failure of our institutional money managers to effectively participate in corporate governance and the need for a federal standard of fiduciary duty.”

In Lead-Up to Olympics, Harvard Crimson Talks about Temi Fagbenle’s Time at Blair In late July, the Harvard Crimson profiled Olympian Temi Fagbenle ’11, a sophomore at Harvard University who played on Great Britain’s women’s basketball team this summer. The article focused on Temi’s high school basketball career, as well as her pursuits off the court, which included singing, acting, playing tennis, running track and serving on senior class council. “‘At first, she was viewed as a basketball player because of her height,’ said Blair headmaster Chan Hardwick. ‘That said, within very short order, Temi was perceived primarily for her leadership and her impact on the community generally.’” On the court, she was one of the best female basketball players ever to wear the Buccaneer uniform. “By her senior fall, Fagbenle had

developed into a socially comfortable leader on and off the court and was being pursued by just about every major basketball team in the country,” the article said. “‘She wanted to be a great basketball player, but she also understood that basketball was a vehicle that was going to open a lot of doors,’ head coach Quint Clarke explained. ‘She is interested in being a successful person in a wide variety of areas. The reason she chose Blair was that she felt we had a chance to help her basketball-wise, academic-wise and otherwise to get her to Harvard to open more doors.’” The article went on to discuss her continuing career at Harvard and credits Temi for her influence on Blair’s girls’ basketball program, attributing some of the team’s success in 2012 to her legacy.

Peter Mandaville Quoted in New York Times Peter Mandaville ’90, professor at George Mason University and former State Department adviser to the Secretary of State, was quoted in The New York Times in midJuly in an article on Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton’s visit to Egypt, during which she declared the United States’ support of “‘the full transition to civilian rule with all that entails.’” The article summarized the tense struggle in Egypt between the president and generals, as well as the United States’ “muted tone” that reflects “a growing sense that American attempts to intercede may be futile in a contest where the outcomes remain uncertain, all of the players are deeply suspicious of American motives and almost any statement could elicit a popular backlash.” After discussing how the Muslim Brotherhood and President Morsi remain “deeply wary of Washington’s goals even after a year of mutual outreach,” the story

quoted Peter as saying: “‘In some ways, all of the talk in Washington about what to do in Egypt is incredibly inefficient. At a time of virtually zero U.S. influence, we don’t need to waste so much time figuring out how to get the Egyptian people to like us.’” “‘Every bone in the body of the U.S. foreign policy establishment is going to feel more comfortable with the idea that there is still a strong military looking over these guys and looking out for U.S. interests in Egypt and the region,’ he concluded.” Mr. Mandeville spoke at Skeptics in mid-September 2012 about the Arab Spring uprisings.

Tim Fite Finds Essence of Innocence in ‘Teenagers’ In June, National Public Radio published a story on its website on musician Tim Sullivan ’95, who goes by the stage name Tim Fite. The article, which reviews his song “We Are All Teenagers,” calls him “an odd bird, going back to his 2001 novelty hit ‘Shaniqua’ as part of Little-T and

26 Fall 2012

One Track Mike.” A solo artist since 2005, in “Teenagers,” Tim “sketches out a spare electric riff with a reverb-y ’50s rock air as he nails the adolescent unease that lingers into adulthood: ‘We all feel a little bit uncool.’ But as Fite circles the sources of our awkward self-consciousness, he comes back around to lauding youthful spirit as the song swells with added drums, organ and choir voices. Along the way, he latches onto the essence of innocence and hopeful possibility: ‘So let’s live while we can/because we may never be teenagers again.’”

a dva n c e m e n t Levinsons Give Teaching Fellowship to Benefit Students When Larry Levinson and his wife, Karen, visited campus for Grandparents’ Day in April 2012, they immediately recognized a difference in their granddaughter Missy ’15: she exuded a degree of enthusiasm, self-confidence and intellectual curiosity that they hadn’t seen before. “As the day proceeded, we saw that what Missy had absorbed during her time at Blair is the essence of the School: the pursuit of academic and athletic excellence in an environment of cultural plurality, with an emphasis on understanding oneself along with the special uniqueness of each and every Blair individual,” said Mr. Levinson, a New Jersey native who is president and CEO of Acme Plastics, Inc., in Woodland Park. “Karen and I looked at each other and said ‘isn’t this what made our country great?’” After talking about how important it is to keep this educational spirit alive, particularly in difficult economic times, the Levinsons decided that their charitable foundation should fuel the wonderful experience their granddaughter was having at Blair. As a result, the Lawrence and Karen Levinson Family Charitable Foundation established the Levinson Faculty Fellow to provide for, nurture, recognize and retain the most promising young instructors, ensuring a consistently high level of excellence among the Blair faculty.

The fellowship was awarded to faculty member Thomas Dougherty for the 2012-2013 school year. The Levinsons met Tom at Blair’s Leadership Dinner in May 2012 and were impressed by his personality, drive and empathy for others. “We have no doubt that Tom will flourish in the Blair environment,” Mr. Levinson said.

Blair Receives Historic Estate Gifts from George D. Senter ’38 George Senter ’38, one of Blair’s most enthusiastic and loyal alumni, passed away in July 2011 at the age of 93. He will long be remembered as a dedicated class representative, a beloved teacher and dorm master at The Hill School, and a generous benefactor of Blair Academy. This summer, the School received George’s historic $2 million bequest, and in accordance with his wishes, the George D. Senter ’38 Scholars Program and the George D. Senter ’38 Endowed Chair in Mathematics have been established. These two programs will long benefit the students and teachers of George’s alma mater. Born and raised in Maine, the youngest of eight children, George came to Blair for his sophomore through senior years. He would later reminisce that these were “very happy—if not the happiest—years of my life.” He graduated from Brown University in 1947 following five years of service in the U.S. Army during World War II and began a 36-year teaching career, with 31 of those years spent at The Hill School in Pottstown, Pa. At Hill, George

was a wise and devoted “father” to thousands of students. Described by one former student as “a teacher of mathematics and a teacher of life,” he was recognized for his dedication in 2005 when he became the first non-Hill graduate to have a dormitory, Senter House, named in his honor. During Blair’s Ever Always Campaign, George bequeathed a generous portion of his estate to the School and created a legacy that encompasses both his passion for teaching and care for students. The George D. Senter ’38 Mathematics Endowment will support the chairman of the Blair Academy mathematics department, R. Latta Browse, who is the inaugural recipient of the new chair (please see story and photo on page 34). The George D. Senter ’38 Scholars Program will grant financial assistance to worthy students who could not otherwise afford a Blair education, with preference given to students from George’s native state of Maine. After devoting his life to education, George so wisely knew that the endowed teaching chair and endowed scholarship would help Blair attract the very finest faculty and students. And no one knew better than George that it is the relationship between faculty and students that is at the very heart of a great School.

Since first exhibiting their work in New York nearly 30 years ago, they opened a gallery called Visual Mixology in Stroudsburg, Pa., where they also live and work. Perhaps most representative of their artistic vision is a piece called “The High Life,” a painting of a Tyrannosaurus Rex that looms over a bright, pastoral setting. A wooden tool shaped like a bird dives into a collage, an assemblage of Miller High Life beer cans and Jurassic pop art like McDonald’s plastic-themed plates. The painting provides the context, the collage the question.

See it, feel it, snap the picture.” Calling this the “age of the smartphone,” the artist says there are benefits and drawbacks to people’s reliance on such devices—so many people “check out” as they become immersed in apps and games—which makes the iPhone’s photo feature a tool of reconnection, rather than disconnection.

Latest Issue of Blair Review Focuses on 1960s An excerpt from the fall issue’s introduction, written by co-editors history teacher Dr. Martin Miller and Timken Library director Ann Williams Following up on the era-based theme of the 2011 Blair Review (“The Men of WWII”), the focus of the fall 2012 edition is the 1960s. Current Blair students invariably view this period as a one-dimensional, hedonistic explosion of ‘sex, drugs, and rock and roll.’ Well, there is some truth to this simplistic notion, though faculty and alumni Review contributors conjure up a far more complex picture of a tumultuous era. Not surprisingly, Blair community members write about a bewildering array of personal interests, goals and lifestyles; their varied experiences flesh out this much-discussed decade in an instructive manner. Some contributors served their nation honorably in the U.S. military, while others challenged this civic duty by protesting the Vietnam War. Some individuals chose to lead alternate lifestyles, while others pursued perfectly traditional paths and studied diligently at both Blair and at college. Professional careers were built amidst a society torn apart by racial strife, Cold War tensions and an increasingly unpopular war in Asia. Some were insulated from the storms of the 1960s, but others were willing or unwilling players in this grand drama. The men of WWII are correctly lauded as the Greatest Generation, and yet, the Baby Boomers of To read the issue in full, please visit the 1960s are often disparaged as narcissistic, entitled whiners, www.blair.edu/BlairReview. not up to the Depression and military challenges faced by their forbearers.

Welcome, New Faculty! As Blair students, parents and alumni know, one aspect of Blair that makes the School so extraordinary is the high-quality faculty members who work around the clock as teachers, advisors, coaches and housemasters throughout the school year—and who often serve as mentors during the summer months and well after students receive their diplomas. “The single most important thing you can do to build a great school is to have a great faculty, and Blair has been very lucky in this regard,” said Headmaster Chan Hardwick, who welcomed these 10 new faculty members to campus this fall.

Admission Teddy Wenner ’96 relocated from Seattle, Wash., to Blairstown to become Blair’s new associate dean of admission. After graduating from Blair, Teddy earned a BS in European history from the United States Military Academy at West Point. He then entered the Army as a field artillery officer assigned to Germany. He spent most of his career deployed in Macedonia, Turkey and Iraq and traveled extensively throughout Europe. Teddy lived in Barcelona upon completion of his service in the Army. He later transitioned into the business world, moving to Arizona and Washington before returning to Blair this year. Teddy coaches boys’ lacrosse, and he, his wife, Teresa, and their son, Archie, live in Insley Hall. Andrea McEvoy joined Blair’s faculty in spring 2012 as a ceramics and sculpture teacher and assistant coach to the JV girls’ lacrosse team before transitioning to

Planned Giving at Blair: The Opportunity of a Lifetime

“My own Blair experience made a tremendous difference in my life. As a Trustee and Sharpe Society member, I know how important planned gifts are in making that experience Thoughtful estate planning can help you achieve both your financial and philanthropic priorities, and many Blair alumni, parents and friends have found that, by including the School in their estate plans, they can both provide for their loved ones and “give back” to an institution they hold dear. At Blair, we recognize those who have made a planned gift with membership in the John C. Sharpe Society (see current membership, next page, and Q&A below). We are grateful to all our planned givers, whose gifts help to provide an outstanding Blair experience for future generations of students.

available to future generations. Planned gifts provide the opportunity of a lifetime to students and donors alike.” —Dr. Mark Moon ’84 Advancement Committee Chair, Blair Board of Trustees

Q. What is the John C. Sharpe Society? A. The John C. Sharpe Society honors loyal alumni, parents and friends who have included Blair in their estate plans. It is named in honor of Dr. John C. Sharpe, Blair’s legendary Headmaster who inspired decades of alumni and helped establish Blair as the school we know today.

Q. Am I required to make a gift of a certain amount to become a Sharpe Society member? A. No. Anyone who includes Blair in his or her estate plans becomes a member of the John C. Sharpe Society. Although most people are unable to make a major gift during their lifetime, many find it possible to include Blair in their estate plans.

Q. Why is the John C. Sharpe Society important to Blair? A. Bequests and other estate gifts have been instrumental in the foundation and growth of Blair’s endowment. A sizeable endowment 36 Fall 2012

is critical to Blair’s ability to fulfill its mission in both good and challenging economic times—the more we can rely on endowment income for operating revenue, the less dependent we are on tuition and annual fundraising. Forty years ago, Blair’s endowment was just over $2 million. Through the generosity of many donors, including John C. Sharpe Society members, the endowment has now grown to over $68 million, truly helping to secure the future of the School.

Q. How can I find out more about planned giving at Blair? A. Planned giving opportunities are almost as unique as donors themselves. Comprehensive information about Blair’s planned giving program may be found on our website at www.blair.edu/ planned-giving. You may also contact Velma Lubliner, assistant director of advancement for capital giving, at (908) 362-6121 ext. 5634, or lubliv@blair.edu.

“He found a campus of eleven acres; he leaves a campus of over three hundred acres. He found buildings few in number, poorly equipped; he leaves a large group of buildings finely equipped for every school purpose. He found a school provincial in type, of one hundred pupils; he leaves a cosmopolitan school of three hundred boys. He found a school of only local repute; he leaves a school famous throughout the country.” —Albert Myrick Freeman, on the legacy of Dr. John C. Sharpe, Headmaster 1898-1927 The John C. Sharpe Society embodies the spirit and ensures the vision of Dr. John C. Sharpe, one of Blair’s most influential headmasters. Planned gifts are the cornerstone of Blair’s endowment, and membership in the John C. Sharpe Society reflects a special commitment to the future. To become a member of the John C.

Dear Members of the Blair Community,

he 2011-12 Annual Report presents a snapshot of a thriving School that is well-supported by

its stakeholders—alumni, parents and friends. As you will see in the following pages, over $8 million was contributed to the School during the past fiscal year, including $2.27 million in Blair Fund gifts and $5.73 million in capital funds. As always, Blair Fund contributions were used during the fiscal year to meet current student, faculty and programming needs. Capital gifts supported many of the School’s long-term, strategic initiatives, including scholarship aid, support for faculty salaries and housing improvement, and endowment growth. Both Blair Fund and capital contributions are crucial to the School’s continued financial health, and I thank each member of the Blair community who participated in this year’s fundraising efforts. On the subject of participation, I take great pride as Board Chairman in highlighting the strong support garnered by the Blair Fund again this year among parents and alumni: Parents maintained an outstanding 81% participation, while alumni reached 34% participation for the first time in School history. The ever-growing number of constituents supporting the School is a true testament to the Blair community’s belief in the importance of our educational mission and the enduring value of the Blair experience. I would especially like to thank the many volunteers who assisted in the School’s fundraising efforts this year by contacting fellow parents, classmates and friends and sharing your enthusiasm for Blair. The gift of your time and talent made this year’s Blair Fund achievements possible, and I am deeply appreciative. Your generous support has made Blair’s motto—Come. Study. Learn.—a reality for today’s students. Your continued dedication will keep it so for future generations. Thanks again. Sincerely, James P. Jenkins ’66 Chairman, Blair Board of Trustees
