DEDICATION Perhaps one of the most dedicated and passionate faculty members, Mr. Bernard Gilroy brings enthusiasm into his endeavors both in and out of the classroom. A wellexperienced teacher, whose courses include Physics Honors and AP Physics C, Mr. Gilroy is described by his students as "engaging and extremely interested in the material that he teaches," making each one of his classes especially meaningful. Even more so, Mr. Gilroy goes above and beyond to help out his students, especially those who need specific reinforcement in certain areas of the material. Alex Barker, a new student to Hun who is enrolled in Physics Honors, recounts a time when Mr. Gilroy went the extra mile. "I remember at one point, I stayed after class because I asn't understanding a concept we were going over. It was something that was relatively basic, and I felt a little abashed that I had to seek his help, so I kept on apologizing. Mr. Gilroy told me to stop apologizing- that I was doing the right thing to ask questions. We spent probably 20 minutes on the concept until I understood it. That was the day I began to realize that Mr. Gilroy is genuinely devoted to making sure W students grasp the material being presented in class." Inrggards to his activity in\tudent life, Headmaster Jonathan Brougham highlighted hi* breadth of commitment. "Outside the ^sssroom, Mr. Gilroy has devoted time and skill t o many of the School's more demanding projects, having served on committees assigned to Student Life, Headmaster Search, Strategic Planning%nd most recently, the Bell Schedule Committee. He also serves the School as a resident faculty member, advisor to the^tudent Coitficil, Gaming Society and Film Society."

Because of his dedication to improving our school, it is no wonder that Mr. Gilroy was sefected as this year's yearbook dedication by the Upper School. Mr. Gilroy's commitment to The Hun School and its tradjtions make him an integral part of our diverse community.] MICHAEL CHANG

It's nice to mix things up." Among her favorite Cameroonian delicacies is fu fu, a staple food of Central Africa, which is a type of dough made by root vegetables. According to Alexandra, Cameroon is like a miniature Africa in itself. "We actually have a lot of culture within the country," she added. "We have so many different local languages, but most people speak at

"But I do miss my room so much! It was so beautiful." She furthered mentioned, "In Africa, people are very, very hospitable, but people in American schools are kind of isolated because they have already been friends for years." However, she said that being part of the theater program has been a very welcoming experience. From her life experiences, Alexandra realizes, "In life you have to learn how to be flexible because everything evolves, and everything changes, and you have to know how to go through that and start it all over again... new life, new house, new school - a new world."

eresa Bedzigui at first glance seemed like a typical American Hun student with her trendy clothes, lack of accent, and exposure to pop culture topics. If one were to assess her based on these qualities, it would be safe to assume that she, like many Hun students, came from a town a few miles from the school. iH
TERESA BEDZIGUI
Digging a little deeper, however, one would find that her Cameroonian background "formed the basis of everything" she knew. "I just have a different mentality than people [from America]." H Even though she lived in the Washington D.C. for most of her childhood, she was born in Cameroon, and spent her summers enveloped in the "slow, relaxed' attitude characteristic of the African culture. ^ i ^ % W . "I may live in America and this is my 'home,' but I am most comfortable walking around barefoot in my village just eating Cameroonian food," Bedzigui remarked. B Many facets of Bedzigui's life reflect her Cameroonian upbringing. She said that she and her mom agreed on the importance of learning and perfecting French, one of the official languages in Cameroon. Further, Bedzigui attributed her "perpetual tardiness" to her exposure to life in Cameroon.
j
"In Cameroon, if you tell someone to be somewhere at a certain time, and you'll be lucky if they are there only fifteen minutes later than that time," Bedzigui remarked. "Everyone needs to adapt to the culture around them, and maybe I'll someday feel completely comfortable in America, but I will always want to keep the Cameroon a part of me." BY STEPHANIE MASON

PEOPLE or the first time in School history, a formal 1
jit * constitution was drafted by various student delegates in the fall. Prior to this conference, elections in all grades were held to determine the two "at-large" delegates who would join the preexisting class officers on the trip to Philadelphia. The idea was originally crafted by Mr. Hews himself, who has been an advocate of reforming our student government. The students and faculty chosen to attend this workshop were brought to Independence Hall in Philadelphia. The school chose this location in order to recreate the actual signing of the United States Constitution. Once they arrived there, the representatives entered the main room, which was composed of many different tables and featured a large screen television that Mr. Hews connected his iPad to for presentations on various forms of government. After introductions were made, the students split off into different groups. In these discussion groups, the students discussed what a core government structure should be like and, at

the end, each group voted on which group had the best idea. After long hours of discussion and rough drafts, a constitution was finally agreed upon. The Hun School of Princeton Constitution will be effective starting fall of the 2010-2011 academic year. BY BRITTANY ANDERSON

Q: Before you moved in, what were your expectations for living in Carter dorm? A: I expected it to be very noisy and fun Q: And how's life now, since you are actually living in Carter dorm? A: Very noisy and very fun! Q: What is the best thing living in Carter dorm? | A: I think being able to interact with so many different kinds of people is one of the best things about living here. They all come from different backgrounds and have different personalities. MS. SANBORN Q: What were your expectations before you came to our school? A: Well, everyone I met was very supportive and caring. Although it is hard sometimes to adapt to a new environment, it has been fantastic so far. Q: In your opinion, what is the best thing about living on campus? A: The school I used to stay had about 90 girls in the dorm. Having less girls and staying together is good experience because I can know more about them. Also, they arc always welcome to visit and eat apple pies that I love to cook!

ven though the day was cold and rainy, it did i not deter Mr. Larry Kidder from taking his World History Seminar Honors class to Howell Farm. Howell Farm is a historic working farm that serves to educate the community about what farming was like at the turn of the 20th century. S i During their day at the farm, the class learned about how the oxen revolutionized agriculture and what technology was used during the 19th century to harvest wheat and other cereal crops. They had the opportunity to participate in the shelling of spelt and milling of the spelt into flour using old-fashion tools. The experience ended with a trip to the stable where they learned about how important the horse was.

Meeting the seminar s goals of going full circle in its educational aims, the trip to Howell Farm coincided with what the class was learning at school. "We were learning about how food changed the world and how key events in history were _ impacted by food," says Juliana Bello. "It was 1 especially interesting to see this at the farm." 1 The class members benefited from this experience because they had the opportunity to apply what they learned through class discussions. "I ,. had never taken a history course before where I • could actually witness what I read and heard in class,w adds Herwig Konings. "This was eye-opening." BYGARRETTLAU

Life in the SAC Student Activity Center
T
he Alexander K. Buck Student Activity Center, better known as the SAC, is one of the most popular spaces on the Hun campus. The SAC is a common site for students to hang out during their tree periods. Students can do homework, watch the Top 10 Plays on ESPN, or just chill with their friends. "I normally go to the SAC after lunch with my friends," says Jesse Pazdera. The SAC is filled with
couches and tables so students can be comfortable while not in class. Inside the SAC, students have the freedom to use their phones, be on their laptops, or listen to music. It's a great place to simply relax before, during, and after the school day. A popular attraction in the SAC is Quyen's snack bar, where students can purchase candy and other snacks to get them through
the long, work-filled day. In addition, the scene in the SAC is constantly changing. It has a steady amount of students during class time, but activity peaks during the hours before and after school. Also, the SAC is a popular location during Community Life Activities period, and the ten minute break after fourth period. The SAC is a great addition to our campus. BY KAMARON MCNAIR

SOCIAL NETWORKING
PPED IN
ocial networking sites, specifically Facebook, have emerged as one of the biggest communication revolutions of this generation. Facebook allows friends to communicate, share pictures, videos, and play games. As of the beginning of this school year, Wi-Fi has been installed school-wide. This has allowed students to access the Internet during class. As a result, students have been able to access Facebook during school. However, there are differing opinions between teachers and students as to the benefits of letting students use the Internet and be on Facebook during school. BY THOMAS HYDUK

NOT
STUDENT SLEEP DEPRIVATION
It is common knowledge that people are supposed to get at least eight hours of sleep each night, and recent research proves that nine hours is the ideal amount of sleep in which a typical teenager should get. However, as a high school student, it seems impossible to get even eight hours when class starts at 7:50 am and homework keeps you up until 10 or 11 pm each night, but many students are able to pull it off. After sports games and clubs, students go home to find a few hours of homework which leaves them almost no time for a proper dinner or time to relax. Even after all homework is done, it sometimes seems necessary to spend a little time for yourself. Some people have admitted to waste time talking to friends, going on Facebook, and watching television. In addition, it is not uncommon for resident students to sneak back up to their dorms for a midday nap during a free period. After chatting with some boarders, it is easy to understand why. Isaiah West explains, "The majority of people try to make up for lost time late at night. The two hours of study hall cut into our time for hanging out, going on Facebook, etc, so we stay up to unwind." Some students find that, even if they are ready for sleep, there are many distractions that keep:* them from their comfy pillows. Lauren Kotler describes the annoyance of late night activity: "It is really loud in the halls. People play music until pretty late, and its hard to get to sleep." In addition, Seong Won Hong sees the late-night social scene as a chance to get his game on: "We like to stay up playing PS2 and XBox." With all this hustle and bustle, it seems absurd that we are expected to get a minimum of eight hours. Falling asleep in class is not surprising for some students anymore. It is just another day to day occurrence. Sleep is an essential part of life, yet students lack the vital amount each night.

FRESHMAN FORMAL
her months of arduous planning, the freshman formal was , already in full swing. After making preparations for food, finding a disc jockey, establishing the yearly theme, and making sure all the decorations were bought and hung, the freshman officers of the student council looked forward to seeing all their hard work enjoyed by their peers. Approximately half of the entire freshman class attended the formal dance, a relatively large figure compared to the amounts in previous years. The theme of this year's dance, |g|f chosen early in the year by the student council and freshman class, was "Oscar night." According to Juliet Kapanjie, a committee member who helped plan the event, freshmen walked down the red carpet and into Russell Hall and were greeted by a giant Hollywood sign and miniature Oscar statue replicas. "The decorations were so amazing," raves Francesca Bello. "They were so cool and made the dance a lot more special." However, perhaps the most challenging and rewarding part of the entire process was actually getting dressed up and ready for the big night. "It took me more than forty minutes to do everything and I had to put on my make up, my clothes, and do my hair," says Juliet. "Later, I went to my friend Olivia's house and we all took pictures and went to the formal together." Dancing all night and feeling like celebrities, the freshmen certainly enjoyed themselves at the dance. The freshman formal is just one of many dances to come in these young students' time at Hun. In addition, it was certainly a memorable bonding experience for many of the freshmen, who spent the night happily with their friends. "I'm looking forward to future dances, especially prom and Cotillion, so I can spend them with my friends!" says Juliet. "I can't wait to help plan them, too!" BY MICHAEL CHANG

ADVANCED STUDIO ART HONORS CRETE TRIP
FOR MINOS very year, Mr. Bush's Advanced Studio Art Honors class takes a trip to a faraway land that fuses both artistic pursuit and recreational fun. This year, seniors Noreen Mohsin, Alana Rudolph, Emily Pittenger, and Cindy Pi accompanied Mr. Bush on a trip to Crete, one that took place on the dates of March 15 through March 23. The trip was part of the class curriculum, as well as the final senior project.
E
The class was studying Minoan myths and researched the topic during school before leaving for Crete. The overall educational objective of the trip was to provide students with firsthand experience that would help aid them with the theme of their final projects, which was on mythology, and the past and present. While in Crete, they rented a villa called "Villa Ariadni" to stay in for the duration of their journey. "When you walk in there's a kitchen that's connected to the living room. Outside of the living room is an outdoor area overlooking the pools and mountains," says Cindy Pi. "We were all in shock that we were actually going to be living there for a week." They also met a few unexpected guests during their stay. "There were lots of stray cats and dogs, as well as sheep and goats that were all over the mountains. We met one cat whose name

was Piggy; she was really friendly." During the trip, the group did a lot of exploring, hiking, and climbing in the mountainsides. They sketched and discussed a lot about the material that they were witnessing. On top of all of this, they also went to a museum at Chania. "We saw a lot of artifacts in the museum and did a bunch of sketches on what we saw. They had a lot of different things from different time periods, like cow statues and ancient coins." After the trip, the students gained a better understanding of how to approach their projects. "We kind of broadened the topic to the past and present, sort of what the ancient Crete used to look like versus what the ruins seem like to us now. And we use this as the basis of making the project more personal. We can apply our experiences to our lives... it doesn't have to be all about Crete." According to the girls, the trip-was both fun and t[ring, since they were a,t "a different place everyday" and "therej^vas so much new information to take in." "I definitely gained a new . perspective on the world because of this trip," concludes Cindy. "I'll never forget what it was like being able to experience a different culture and way of life."

f a person were to glance at the Human Anatomy and Physiology class syllabus, it would seem through the medical diagnoses, online forums, opinion papers, and highly developed lab activities that Mr. Alan Metcalf had perfected this extensive curriculum over years of trial and error processes. In only his second year of teaching the course, however, Metcalf formed his innovative teaching approach out of his experiences as a personal trainer, which required interactive instruction. "Also," Metcalf noted, "I consider how I myself would best grasp the material." Overall, he received a favorable response from students. "Most everyone I talked to outside of class loved to show me how they've applied what they have learned in their everyday lives," Metcalf commented.
they wanted to pursue science as a career through their experiences in HAP. Erik Gunstensen, for example, enjoyed diagnosing medical conditions for imaginary patients, and developed his interest for "the biomedical aspect of computing." These diagnosis assignments received the best student response, according to Metcalf. "A big part of the curriculum are the medical causes and problems attached to every part of the body," Metcalf added. "It seemed like a fun extension of the material to see the challenges faced by doctors every day." Labs included taste tests, video dream interpretations, and even a demonstration of the intense incline and breathing difficulties faced by Mount Everest climbers by walking on uphill-inclined treadmills.
"I enjoy being outside during lacrosse practice and having my students run by and identify the muscles they are using. I love that more than anything."
"My favorite assignment in HAP was the video dream interpretation because it was fun to analyze our dreams and see how our subconsciouses relate to them," Gunstensen said.
Students not only gained practical knowledge about their bodies and how they function, but in some cases also learned
Other activities included online forums, which Metcalf enjoyed "the accountability in playing off of each other," and opinion
papers, which allowed students to respond openly to a given topic. "I just like hearing about what kids really think," Metcalf said. Topics ranged from controversial lifestyle choices like smoking, to the obesity epidemic, and also how society defines beauty. The class was geared toward "inquisitive" students, with a majority of the material requiring feedback from the students for full effectiveness. "When students don't ask questions, it doesn't matter how many crazy and applicable stories that I tell," Metcalf emphasized. "Not asking questions relating to their own lives translates into not using the class to its full potential." It seemed as though his students reacted well to this challenge. "I believe that Mr. Metcalf s hands-on learning style has made it much easier to learn," Gunstensen decided. "I really liked Mr. Metcalf s direct teaching style and how he was never afraid to say what he was thinking." Metcalf, through his out-of-the-box teaching approach, demonstrated that often there are multiple ways to arrive at the same destination-some more impacting and effective than others.

According to Brendan Hurley, a junior who enrolled in the course a year early, they "went to photograph and observe ancient art work from the Egyptian culture" in order to better understand the works they were studying in class. They walked through the galleries, observing specific works of art, and continued after they ate lunch in the dining hall. "This trip made art history more of a hands-on experience than just learning about it in the classroom," says Brendan. "We actually
got to see the art, rather than just hear about it. That made it truly special for me." In addition, the breadth of the museum's collections astounded some of the students. "I thought it was so cool that the museum had such a large collection of this specific art and allowed us to really imagine the work when we studied it," says Anahi Ruiz. This is especially true given the fact that the Metropolitan Museum of Art has some of the world's largest and most expansive collections in practically every field. Reflecting on the benefits of the trip, the students consider the time spent at the museum to be a valuable experience. "It was enriching and a privilege to be able to encounter such wonderful masterpieces," says Brendan. "I have no complaints." BY MICHAEL CHANG

alloween is the spookiest time of the _ year! This year, the community got into the spirit of the day in many ways. Students were greeted in the morning by Ms. Chmielewski's pretzel-promoting double in the Academic Office, consumed way too much sugar during classes, and, quite possibly the highlight of the day, even participated in a costume contest. Some students had a variety of costumes to choose from as the day went on. "I dressed up as a banana during the school for the contest and later a Solo cup when I went out at night," says Emily Decicco. "It took a lot of careful planning and creativity." This year's costume contest winner, featured on a special episode of HUN TV, was a group who called themselves "Snap, Crackle and Pop," which consisted of Mackenzie Pyne, Kara Kettelkamp, and Elizabeth Brown. They each dressed up as a different member of the popular cereal trio. iH "It was cool to see everyone get into character," says Emily Decicco, who also competed in the contest. "It was fun to see people express a different side of themselves." H With both students and faculty gj showcasing their spirit for the national holiday every year, many find the costumes and creativity to be a unique aspect of our student life. BY MICHAEL CHANG

A CHANGE IN THE his year, our Janus Players decided to change it up with the fall play. The production entitled All in the Timing was a different kind of show for our theater company. The play fused seven separate one-act plays, all with the consistent theme of spoken language. Whether the actors were speaking "unamunda" or trying to write Hamlet, the laughs kept on rolling. This season, producer Aaron Bogad had something bigger than the play on his mind: a new born child. In his absence, Kelly Byrne, Michael Ray, and Kaitlyn Bastedo stepped up to direct
plays on their own. Michael explained that he's been primarily an actor in the past, but "It's going to be cool to watch the actors on stage. I'm excited to be the guy in the back wearing the black clothes." Even though they each had separate rehearsals, the little plays flowed together quite well. The opening act included a couple learning the underlying meanings of spoken English, and the play ended with a couple exploring all the different possibilities and outcome of the words that come out of their mouths. Spoken language is its own universe, and this play described that it really is all in the timing. BY KAMARON MCNAIR

The students in the club work with their partner school through fundraising, advocacy, and cultural exchange projects. Some of the cultural exchange projects include exchanging letters with the girls of the partner school and discussing how the choreographer of Slumdog Millionaire taught the girls dances from the movie. For another project, the girls decorated a tapestry for the Hun chapter, explaining the celebration of Durga Puja, an annual Hindu festival worshiping the goddess Durga.

ulture is not a foreign concept to students at Hun. After all. with students coming from 14 states and 20 different countries, all eager to learn and thrive under one roof, it's no surprise that the School has many opportunities for diversity awareness on campus.
In recent years, students have experienced increased awareness in many forms, whether it be discussion in the classroom, assemblies, organized activities, or simply by speaking with their peers. However, one of the most intense efforts thus far, was the inaugural Diversity Day that took place late last year and the follow up discussion that occurred in the fall. And students are finding such discourse and activity to be both beneficial and essential to their social experience. "Encouraging diversity awareness is a great concept that The Hun School is trying to build within our school," says Rohit Malhotra. "Not only is there the opportunity to learn how to interact with other cultures, but also there are a lot of

interesting friendships that may develop. For example a person from America and one from Korea may become the closest friends; this helps in our sense of community, and it also lets everyone understand different cultures." In addition, this mutual exchange of ideas extends beyond the social environment; it also facilitates a depth of learning outside of the classroom. "Especially with Diversity Day, the events help the students to think about the stereotypes we cast on certain ethnicities and dispel them," comments Kaleigh Choi. "In addition, in a world now dependent on globalization, it is important for us, the world of tomorrow, to understand the truth about diverse ethnicities and work with different countries on global issues." Thus, engaging events, such as Chinese New Year celebration and an African drum demonstration, send across a message and lesson to students that is both beneficial for their social and educational experience at Hun.

VOCAL MUSIC
^
veryone at Hun is familiar with the veteran female a capella group, The Edgertones. However, as of last year, a brand new male a capella group has emerged. Advised by Ms. Lauren Rankin, Voice Male is an all-male a capella group that meets almost every week for rehearsal. Their first debut was at the spring music concert and, since then, the boys have made considerable progress. "Although three members graduated last year, we have four new members this year. We're also performing over twice as many songs at each concert," says singer Robert Chen. Their first concert of the school year took place at the Princeton Public Library, where high school a capella groups from the Princeton area were invited to perform in the event Friday Night Live. And just a week later, the boys put on a wonderful show at the winter music concert for the school community, where they performed Maroon 5's "Sunday Morning," "Silent Night," and "Let it Snow."
CHECK
In regards to how Voice Male is different from his other musical pursuits, Robert Chen says, "A capella is a lot smaller and feels very free and relaxed. We can pick our own songs and choreography. There's a sense of open creativity." And what's with the name, you might ask? According to the group, they originally settled on calling the group aHa's, after some disorganization and disagreement. However, at the beginning of this school year, Joseph Anthony brought up the name Voice Male as a possible alternative. "Everyone thought it was very clever," adds Robert Chen. And it has stuck ever since. "Voice Male means a lot to me because we just started, but we're making so much progress. I love every rehearsal and spending time with the group. If I keep this up, I might even want to do it in college. Who knows?" BY MICHAEL CHANG

While a great performance relies on passion and dedication from the student performers, a little bit of guidance goes a long way. As such, the faculty advisors for the choir and a capella groups, Mr. James Mayo and Ms. Lauren Rankin respectively, have helped their singers find their inner talents. When he first arrived at Hun in 2008, Mr. Mayo had big plans for the music program at Hun. Working on each individual student's skills, he eventually became an integral part of the school community. "Mr. Mayo makes us push ourselves to the limit and explore our inner qualities," says choir
member Alexandra Djamen. "He taught us how to read, perform, and explore new music." In addition, Ms. Rankin has also developed a close bond with her — fellow students at school, not only as head of the Edgertones, but also as a TOD in the dorms. "I don't know if words can sum up Ms. Rankin," says Noreen Mohsin. "She's just incredible!"

For the winter musical, students performed Kiss Me Kate, a production written by Cole Porter that can be best described as a play within a play.. The story highlights the relationship between an ex-husband and wife who play the leading roles in a rendition of Shakespeare's Taming of the Shrew. With so many theater enthusiasts at The Hun School, it was necessary to have two casts. Both casts provided an original interpretation of the same play and the dynamic between all the characters was equally unique. As the characters' lives played out on and off the stage, the students showed off their acting skills as they smacked and shoved one another quite realistically. Their passion went so far as to cause one of the actors to even acquire a nosebleed! Humorous and endearing, the play was truly "Wunderbar"! BY COLETTE BECKETT

TUNIN HUN TV
rom the beginning until the end of the school year, HUN TV keeps students updated on news and stories. However, little is actually known by the community regarding what goes on behind the overhanging television screen, the effort it takes to engage a student audience. The crew members meet each week and discuss what they can make for the next episode. "Sometimes we'll talk about series like HTV Cribs and other special features," says Arno Konings, a senior member of the group. Having come up with interesting routine specials, such as Mike Ray's "Study Hall" and Lui's weather forecast, students who contribute to HUN TV often spend hours brainstorming ideas they think the community would enjoy watching. Then they get to work. They arrange interviews and places to film their individual stories and eventually, when everything is edited and done, meet back the day before broadcast and do a complete run through. And their hard work has paid off. Students are more attentive than ever before during activities period when HUN TV is on. Many are excited for new episodes, especially when new features such as "Study Hall" are aired every H day. "I think HUN TV has gotten so much more student oriented in the last couple of years," says Brendan Hurley, a student viewer of the show. "There's a lot of student involvement and it really shows in all the special features they put together in such a short amount of time." Still, the Hun TV crew still believes they a lot of work ahead of them. "All of us, including Mr. Hoban, still want to improve_pur range of coverage," says Arno. "We want to serve our school in the most omplete way possible. After all, isn't that the purpose of video media?" BY MICHAEL CHANG

AN EXCHANGE A
s the center for writing and communication, the Lindsay Jacob '04 Room for Journalism facilitates a melting pot of student personalities to write and produce a variety of publications. The student newspaper staff meets regularly in the Journalism Room to plan and publish The Mall. Currently in its 65th year, The Mall offers students the opportunities to both develop their skills in journalistic writing and move closer to the people, places, and happenings that define their high school community. The Journalism Room also serves as headquarters for the yearbook staff, which meets throughout the year to produce the Edgerstounian, a compilation of the interactions and school culture unique to each academic year. In the room, they plan coverage ideas, layout designs, and photo assignments, all of which keep them busy and active every week. Meanwhile, in the springtime, The Hun Review staff begins to work full time in the Journalism Room as well, editing and compiling a fine arts magazine that offers students another distinct form of literary and artistic expression, based not so much on school life as on personal experience and creative energy. To add to the fusion of creative writers and journalists who work in the Journalism Room, the School's Marketing and Communications Office moved in at the start of this school year. Students who frequent the Journalism Room value the help Ms. Meghan Poller and Mr. Ryan Egan provide, adding two professional journalists to the mix. Likewise, Ms. Poiler and Mr. Egan enjoy being so closely connected to the daily life of the student community, particularly students involved in journalism. "I'm always pleased to see how many students dedicate their time to write for school publications," says Mr. Egan. In addition, Ms. Poller calls the new connection between the School's professional and student publications a "mutually beneficial experience" because "[she] can get to know students better and get a good sense of what is important to students at Hun" while "journalism students benefit from being around a professional communications staff." While the room can be sometimes hectic with busy journalism students, the overall process is very rewarding for all. "I've learned a lot of skills through both the yearbook and newspaper in my time at Hun and find the room to be a very useful resource," adds Michael Chang. With an eclectic sampling of students and faculty who make good use of the facility, all members benefit not only from what they learn through their publications but also from each other.

What he found challenging about the season: "Because of the small number of players on our team, many players were forced out of their comfort zones and had to learn how to play new positions. This was a very tough process, but our players adapted well and played their positions to the best of their abilities."

a play-by-play of the Peddle game-according to wide receiver Keon Rankins
s
ome people think that a 10-6 game was just low scoring, but we saw it as a battle. This was one of the first times I started for Varsity. It was also a little weird to play Brendan Dudeck since he was our leader in previous years. It was interesting to see him on the other side in that uniform. As for the activity of the game, Kylan (Baker) was able to run for a touchdown and for that particular play, our offensive line was really good. (Chris) Cardinali also made a great block, giving Kylan the hole to score. The people who actually score usually get most of the credit, and Kylan deserves it, but it was also a huge contribution from the whole team. (Ian) Maltz also had a really great game. He not only scored the other three points for the team with the field goal, but his kick-offs, extra points, and punts were both strong and accurate. The only negative part of the whole experience was Zach (Hundertmark) getting injured. I felt really bad for Zach because I know him pretty well, and I know that when he is in pain he usually just brushes it off, but we all knew that he was hurting. He ended up breaking a bone in his hand and could not play the last two games. He was a great left tackle for our offense and defensive end, and his absence definitely affected our team. It was a great game and I was lucky to be able to play with these guys. They all do so much for the team, and they were truly a great group of guys, better yet a family." \\

Family Matters A commitment to athletics in high school requires not only hard work, but a significant devotion of one's time. As a result, players often feel a close connection to their fellow teammates. In David Dudeck's situation, however, having a brother as a teammate and his father as a coach extends beyond the typical familial bounds. With the eldest Dudeck, Brendan, playing on the Peddie team as a postgraduate, the Homecoming game slowly transformed into a family feud of sorts. Before the game, David commented on the irony of his Dad "watching film, game planning around

A: I did a little at the beginning, but after pre-season I felt extremely comfortable with the team and there was no language barrier. Q: Is there any difference between soccer in Venezuela and soccer in the United States? A: The only difference I can think of is that soccer in Venezuela is all year round rather than a season. Everything else is the same, soccer is a universal sport. Q: Did soccer help you transition into the Hun school? A: Yes, it helped me make close friends quicker and preseason showed me what to expect. BY BRITTANY ANDERSON

The game against The George School ended 5-3, with the Raiders coming out on top. The players, audience, and the coaches were all nervous throughout the whole game, which was unpredictable from the start. In the beginning, Hun was winning with a two-point lead. Nicholas Guns and Robert Merfield scored one goal each. Our players were so confident that they were going to win. However, as soon as the boys loosened up, The George School took advantage of this and scored. After the goal, the Raiders gathered themselves and scored again. The first half of the game ended 3-1. Before the second half began, Mr. Favaloro and the team were positive that they were going to win this game. However, the opposing team came up with a new plan and some of our players were benched out and injured. When our team was having a hard time trying to pull back up, The George School scored two more goals. All of a sudden, the opponents caught up so fast that Hun became nervous. There was not much time left and Coach Favaloro changed players and directed with more passion. Both the players and the coach were determined to not lose a game they were initially winning. All the Hun and George School players were exhausted. However, with strong teamwork and determination, Hun won the game. The team coach, Mr. Favaloro, compliments, "I'm proud of my players' unity, camaraderie, and determination."

LEARNING TO SHOOT FRESHMAN BOYS' SOCCER Unafraid of the competition, these bold freshmen proved that while most of them were new to the sport, they had nothing to lose. Coach Gonzalez has always acclaimed his hardworking freshmen for their versatility on the field. In seasons past, he and his troops have had incredibly successful seasons, ones that rival and sometimes even trump those of the junior varsity and varsity teams. However, this year was a building team for the boys. Although they began with a losing streak, they eventually corrected their wrongs and fell into sync with one another. This harmony proved strong when the freshmen defeated their rival Peddie after losing to them in the season opener. BY JUNG YEON CHOE

PtELD HOCKEY
n Wednesday, October 6, 2010, the Varsity Field Hockey 'team was presented with a big challenge in their season- a game against Stuart Country Day School. Varsity Field Hockey plays Stuart Country Day School every year, but for the past eight years the team has fallen short of victory. This year the team stepped up to the challenge. Carey Million '13 was able to beat the Stuart defenders and score the first goal for Hun. After Hun's first goal, Stuart felt the pressure and scored on the Hun defense. During the second half, both teams needed some extra energy, and the Hun Varsity Field Hockey girls showed Stuart the level of play they can perform. Katya Huxel '11 scored Hun's second goal. Kara Kettelkamp held her own in goal, and Hun Field Hockey won 2-1 to put a hardly fought "W" on their season record. BY CAROLINE KNIGHTS

After talking to Coach Quirk, Kettelkamp decided to start practicing goalie again. She trained as a goalie in practices to prepare her for the high school level. Although playing goalie during her senior year of high school was not ideal, Kettelkamp played with strength. When told that it was her first year as a high school goalie, many fans and coaches had trouble believing it. Kara Kettelkamp's ambition and courage kept the team powerful in her senior year.
Hailey Culhane and Nicolette Natale '11 have played on the Hun Field Hockey team since . their freshman year at Hun. They both have helped lead the team to the many successes ; T J i throughout this season, including a win against Stuart Country Day School. When asked how the' field hockey team has influenced their impression of Hun student life, Culhane explained how much she enjoys the "combination of people." She also loves "being together as a team," and this season £ their team has made many significant advances as 1 team players. •
Natale added that she likes "watching the girls work so hard on and off the field." When asked how the Stuart game affected her last season at Hun, Natale stated it "picked up everyone's spirits." Some of Culhane's favorite I games in the season were against Steinart, Stuart, I and "holding [their] own against Lawrenceville and | Peddie." Both seniors were very impressed with [ the level of play their team has played at this year. BY CAROLINE KNIGHTS I

SHOOT IT HIGHER JV GIRLS' TENNIS Although the team lost against Peddie, their closing match of the season, Coach Cheryl Beal still had words of optimism to share. "We came out with a winning season," she stated. "I'm happy. There's nothing to complain about." Captain of the junior varsity girls' tennis team, Danielle Walsh shared her favorite experiences with the team at the last match. "I like to play tennis and love my teammates. It's been a great season... we've all grown so much as players." Although most of the girls are young underclassmen, they demonstrated great potential this season with a record of six wins to four losses. They are all proud of their accomplishments. BY ERIN LEE

v As Ms. Joan Nuse, head coach, said, "This year held a 'rough season' for the girls' tennis team." After graduating many valued seniors from last season, 2010 presented the tennis team with a season for
\ \
rebuilding. However, the tennis players took a really good attitude about the situation and worked hard. Despite the difficulties this season presented, the tennis players focused on the advantages their situation offered. Everyone on the team grew with the chance to gain new experience, as new players got their first encounters with the game while veteran players entered into new positions in which they had never played. Between all the hard work the girls put in this season, they still found time for a little fun. Games like tennis volleyball allowed the teammates to practice their skills while breaking up the normal practice routines with some other activities. Boys' tennis coach Mr. Todd Loffredo even joined in on a few occasions. Team Captain Katie Seitz '12 continued to lead the team this year, holding the position of first singles player. Aside from her tennis abilities, Katie's teammates also looked to her as a good model of hard work and a great example of a friend. BY BRITTANY ANDERSON

he first home race of the season is always the hardest. Returning runners know the difficulty of the infamous course at Greenway Meadows Park. N e w runners are terrified by the stories. Many say that our home course is one of the hardest courses of the season. But with the degree of difficulty comes the ultimate satisfaction of finishing the race. But the race is not over even when you cross the finish line. Once you are done, you don't go sit down and stretch out, yet. You stand by the finish line and cheer as your teammates and competitors alike come through the finish line. Even though some people may see cross country as an individual sport, it truly comes down to the camaraderie between the whole team. This is where a fusion of individualism and teamwork meet. Going from the first win at home, the team went on to accomplish so much more, with another win at home and a handful of wins away.
The team came out strong this year compared to years past. W i t h hard work, dedication, and good leadership not only from the top runners, but also from Coaches Angela Haberle and David Davis, the team built upon each win as the season went on. This season has been a series of highs and lows, literally. From running through the hilly terrain at Blair to running at the flat golf course at Peddie, the team and its path embody the same idea. Runners had new personal bests and tough moments when disappointment ran through their minds. But that never stopped them. The team ran hard all the way until the end of the season. It is not the results in the wins and loss column when you look back but rather the friendships you form, the endurance you have built, and the fun times you have which you can look back on.

Q: Why did you decide to run on the cross country team? : I played basketball, soccer, golf and other sports, but I thought this sport would make me feel proud of my work. Q: What do you do during the day before a meet? : During the day before, to prepare myself, I eat high carbohydrates and drink enough water. Before the race, I try to relax my body and mind. Q: What does running do for you? : When I feel troubled and agitated, running actually makes me feel calm and focused. Running teaches me to be myself. BY DONGWAN KIM

Although cross country is an individual sport, through practicing, working, and racing together, cross country teammates fuse together into a solid team throughout the season. However, like in any group, certain teammates achieve levels of distinction above the rest. Three cross country runners this year led the team, not only in placing at races but also in their guidance and commitment t o their fellow teammates.

he 2010-11 season had a rough start for our boys. With two straight losses to start off the season, it wasn't looking good for The Raiders. This season, head coach Mr. Bourbeau was faced with the challenge of having a younger team to train and develop into varsity-level hockey players. Since many seniors graduated from the team last year, Bourbeau was given a team of mostly freshmen and sophomores with less experience. As such, the team faced a lot of struggles, including getting back into the groove of things after two weeks
off for winter break. But Coach Bourbeau had faith that the team would make it through. The team showed a lot of improvement from the start of the training in November up to winter break, but when they returned in January, it was slow getting back on the ice. Reflecting on their season, he knew that there were some ups and downs in the first half of the season, but he had hopes that the boys were learning from their mistakes. The players tried to keep up their morale, but it was a long second half of the season. The
team had a lot of good games like a 5-0 win over Montclair-Kimberly Academy, but they also had some low days like the 1-7 loss to LaSalle High School. On the positive side, players agree that the team has bonded a lot since the beginning of the season. They have seen a lot of improvement, and the players really became a team. It's always a challenge for teammates to come together when the going gets tough; however, overall the team both lost and won together and, at the end of the day, had a great season.

For freshman goalie Devin Cheifetz, hockey is more than a sport - it's life. Devin started skating when he was just two years old, and started playing hockey by age four. Coming from a half Canadian family, hockey is kind of implied. His father, also a hockey player, inspired Devin to get on the ice. When he was still early on in his career, Devin decided to become a goalie because he "always wanted to get jumped on at the end of the

WITH In what seems to be a common trend this year for spring sports teams, the varsity boys' lacrosse team has had to make some adjustments coming in from the previous season. " W e lost a lot of good players who graduated last year," says Garrick Wier. "So a lot of our returning players had to change positions. It really tested our versatility as lacrosse players." However, the adversity did not dampen the spirit of the team. Inspired to overcome these difficulties, Garrick commented, " W e simply had to learn from our strengths and weaknesses in order t o get ahead. W e became better players in the end."
In an effort to w o r k out the kinks of a new team, the team was hesitant initially going against Academy of New Church. " W e started off the game a little shaky giving up a couple quick goals but then we rallied and won big," says Michael Buckbinder. " W e can really bring it together as a team when needed and part of that is because of Mr. Kelso. He is good at encouraging us and hyping us up before games." In fact, Head Coach Tom Kelso sees the importance of guiding his team in terms of goal setting and personal motivation. According to his philosophy, this provides the team with structure
and solidarity as they move together towards becoming stronger athletes, both physically and mentally. This mental strength is evident in how the boys closed the rest of the match. "Eventually everything came together. W e knew it was a match we needed to win, so as a collective whole we just rallied and brought it together," adds Michael. The team's unity and relentless pursuit for the win attribute to its successful season. The boys' path shows that motivation and keeping a clear mind of what's up ahead is essential for playing well on the field. BY SHUKRA SABNIS

VARSITY AND JUNIOR VARSITY GIRLS' LACROSSE
LAX LA DIES
S
tarting off the season right, the girls' varsity lacrosse team won its opening game against Blair by one goal. However, this game was only the beginning for the girls. Monica King, senior, and one of the three captains this year, explains that the team is still looking to improve and become stronger and fitter so that they can out compete all of their opponents. According to Monica, this year the team is focused especially on fundamentals. At preseason in Florida, the team worked hard and training was intense. Many key players graduated last year, so the team is very young, which has only encouraged the girls to work even harder to improve. The team remains focused on practicing ground balls and draw control, as these skills are crucial and could be the determining factor of a win or loss. Also, new to the team this year, Coach Bethany Loffredo has become an important contribution. "She's awesome, and brings a lot of knowledge because she played and coached D1 at Fairfield. She brings new drills, and she's really easy to get along with," says Monica. Along with Coach Loffredo, Coach Sanborn and Coach Kittle provide the girls with insight about the game. They push the girls to work hard at practice, and offer a lot of encouragement. Although the team is young this year, Monica is excited and confident about the season. "We are super young, but we have a lot of heart, which is going to help us win games."

I his season, the varsity baseball team opened with a tough loss against Lawrenceville, but Coach McQuade remained confident that the players would find success as they continued to improve. However, there have been some new obstacles this year that the team overcame. "For the first time in many years we did not have any returning players who have pitched at the varsity level," says Coach McQuade. Regardless, the pitching staff was still very talented. This year, juniors Alex Fabian, Gavin Stupienski, and John Campbell, along with sophomores Austin Goeke, ike Manfredi, Eddie Paparella, Devan Birch, and iteven Wells pitched for Hun. As the players continued to work hard in the gym"» well as at practices, they were able to develop and pelfect their skills. In fact, the team rebounded
^
quickly from their loss against Lawrenceville and later defeated Blair as well as Academy of the New Church. Coach McQuade also recognizes the leadership on the team this year. Chris Leach (catcher), Mark Rende (short-stop), and Dave Dudeck (outfielder) are the three captains of the team. "All three players are great leaders and outstanding players," says Coach

BACK TO BASICS JV BOYS' TENNIS After quickly defeating The Hill School just a few days earlier, the team struggled
with their home match against Peddie the following Saturday. The team's defeat can mostly be attributed to the stormy weather and cancellation of practices during the week. "It was tough to compete on Saturday," says Casey Bayer, a returning doubles player. "The weather really played a detrimental role by not letting us practice at all." Despite this, the team is well aware of overcoming difficulties. As evidenced by the team's past success, a little hard work and practice can go a long way. On a final note, Casey mentioned, "Once we put in the work, we become a lot better." BY MICHAEL CHANG

After a tough close loss to Hill as the season opener, and a follow up loss to Peddie the week after, the varsity boys' tennis team demonstrated strong resifience in spite of these disappointing losses by following through with a quick win against Ranney. When asked about the loss to Hill, Mr. Loffredo J/Commented, "We beat them 7-0 last year. We shouldn't have lost to them." However, the team remained intact and continually practiced, dealing with sporadic bouts of rain and an illness that affected the health of over half the players. Another problem the team encountered was a lack of experienced players. "We've had a tough loss with 2 seniors less so we are still accustoming ourselves to the big change," says Dobrin Mitev. "In addition, certain players should have had a better attitude about their match and should not have let the opponents think they got in our heads. On another note, Chris Seitz mentioned, "I think it was a case of little bit of nerves for the new players on the team and also staying focused. However, as always, we definitely become more confident as the season progresses." BY MICHAEL CHANG

At the first home race of the season, the team faced the tough competition of both the Peddie and Blair track teams. The boys' team managed to win over Blair by a substantial margin while losing to Peddie only by a small difference. Sadly, the small girls' team could not muster up enough points to beat either team, but still competed very well, with some girls placing in the top three or higher for their events. Reflecting back on on the team's history, it has grown in numbers over the years. The girls' team has grown from just a few girls to over ten. The boys' team has also grown in numbers in just a few years. The team has also increased its notoriety, since it was invited to the Mercer Twilight Relays for the first time. The captains had a key role in leading such a large team. Each division of the team, such as the jumpers, had a captain that encouraged them and helped the other members to learn proper technique. "From the beginning, the team has had great chemistry. Each member of the team cheered on the other members as they competed. I think that the support of the team has led to many good performances during the meets and some personal bests," said Stephanie i

When asked why the number of male golfers outnumbers females year after year, Tori Weeks comments, "Golf started out as a 'guy-getaway'. It has taken a while for women to catch on." The notion that golf takes a lot of upper body strength is a misconception. Weeks explains that the power comes from the midsection and the motion and focus are extremely important.

Years from now, maybe a generation in the future, people are going to be flipping though this yearbook. They will be looking at the photos of their sports teams, reminiscing about the clubs that they joined, trying to relive the feelings from high school. But some will be people I don't know and who won't know me. They will judge me for what I write here, for how I leave my mark. I have just a few things to say to those people. Yes, that is a pencil behind my ear and yes, I lost that pencil about five minutes after this. ;P Yes that is the book The Giver, the book that inspired me to be a writer. And yes, I did have regrets. We all have them. How we are judged in the future should not be by what we regret but how we deal with it. When I graduated I let them go.

First and foremost, I want to thank Daddyo, Mama, and Nana for providing me with my amazing home-away-from-home for the past four years. I owe this to the three of you. Thank you for your steadfast love and support. (Sissy, *cue secret-handshake,*) September 2007:1 entered Hun a scared little freshman, literally eight inches shorter, and not at all realizing what I was about to get myself into. May 2011: Today I see how my time at Hun has shaped me more into the person I hope to become. I can't even begin to thank all those who have so profoundly affected me during my time here. What would I ever do without: *my F.P.S. professional heart-2-hearter*my ABC azn*extreme skipping*wearing purple to junior-prom*THE TREEEE and the grapist who came with it*ghost lights and infected blankets*GROGing and cymbal-facing*animal hats*Firecro... okay, never mind*"There's something I need to tell you..."*every single sasquatch, tiny shoes, Lisa causes earthquakes joke*every single tragic story of tripping, falling prey to the cursed dress, being rugby tackled, etc.*Penelope Otraquat*evil lemon tarts that burn your house down*Part of Your World auditions*Bart the Blinker*discovering the hidden language* ...This place, these moments, and these people will not soon be forgotten...
e&n Time feeds upon memory and the numerous footsteps I have taken here during the last 4 years enabled me t o become a person I am today. I have a fair share of my moments of pride, but the most significant events of my life, experiences that shaped the course of my outlook and approach, are the episodes that humbled me. Thank you so much Ms. Somers for going through all those moments with me. You were always there for whole 4 years watching me grow. I cannot thank you enough. I love you. Ms. Rankin... I cannot imagine myself without you. You make H U N feel like home for me. Thank you for everything. Saranghaeyo <3 Thank you Mr. Stevenson, Ms. Smith, Carter TODS, Dr. Liebmann, Ms. Roux, Mr. Treichel, Mr. Volz, Ms. Mount, and every teacher who has given me guidance and support. Edgertones = 10 wonderful sisters of mine. You guys mean so much to me. Thank you and I love you. All the Korean students: I know I am not the kind, warm "sunbae" to you guys but thanks for being nice "hubaedeul" to me. Wish you all good luck. And thanks to everyone who has been with me on this difficult but valuable journey. Last but not least, thank you umma, abba, halmoni for giving me this great opportunity t o see the world that I would never have been able t o see if it were not you guys. I love you so much and I will do my best to make you proud. I LOVE Y O U .
oteen All I can say is that "y° u don't know what you got until it's gone." Then you spend days, months, even years chasing your imago of that someone/ something / someplace, but it's never the same. "The only thing constant in life is change." Life is still so amazing. Shout outs: Family, Edgertones, Ms. Rankin, Zaid, Ali Kelly, Lizzy, Teryn, Olivia NIB, Jess, Manga, Parker, Beatrice, Little Red, JG, Berry (DS), Smiley (MB), Ashton, Nadia, Dan, Ria, Mr. Bush, Mr. Joyce, Mr. Shelley, Mr. Brown (x2), Mr. Floor, Mr. Dippery, Shabib, Norris, KaLlndy, DJAmen, others. My life would never have been the same without any of you. Highlights: Freshman: the magical Forensics Spring. Jonas Brothers, "Let go" Frou Frou. No inhibitions. One of the boys. Sophomore: "Happy Ending" solo. Cool Roommate. "Built this way" Samantha Ronson. Amazing friends. Boyfriend. Laughter. Chemistry. Ebullient. Family filled summer. Junior: Emerald green eyes. "Use Somebody" Kings of Leon. Edgertones. Drama class. More best friends. More Laughter. The Incredible Summer of 2010. "Dynamite" Taio Cruz. Dancing, Love. Senior: Nostalgia. Happy thoughts.

NEW STUDENT DEVELOPS UNIQUE NICHE WITHIN COMMUNITY
Arriving at Hun as a senior, Monique Howard faced an unexpected absence from school earl/ in the year due to illness. In order to have the best academic experience, Mo decided to restart her student career as a junior instead. Her situation exemplifies our community's unique flexibility with ensuring each student's success. In addition, Mo's transition demonstrates our student body's ability to thrive under challenging circumstances.
&A
: How is Hun different from your old school? A: Originally, my parents decided they wanted me to go to an all-girls boarding school that I despised! I had to travel two hours a day to row because they didn't have a crew program. The school in general was not • athletic, and that wasn't for me. Hun was a much better fit because of its academics and athletics.
'•'•
: What was running through your mind the first week? ' A: I was really nervous and it was overwhelming, ' but in a good way! Everyone was really welcoming and I found a senior group of friends really quickly that I stayed close with. I loved it. I knew it was the right fit.
MO FUN AT HUN A new addition to the School, Mo is described by faculty and friends as warm and friendly, with a contagious enthusiasm.
: When you found out you were spending another year here, how did you feel? A: The first thing I thought of was that I wouldn't be graduating with any of my friends, neither at Hun nor my old school. That was the toughest for me. Then I started meeting new juniors and became close with, them. I mean, I love Hun, so that helps. And now I can go visit all my senior friends in c d M f c but I'm going to miss them a lot. I am lo^HJ|TOrward to an easier, healthier second senji

MIX IT STUDENTS CROSS-DRESS BEFORE HOMECOMING TO SHOW THEIR SCHOOL SPIRIT On Tuesday, October 19th, the usually bleak morning was instead filled with student excitement over one another's funny cross-gendered appearances. The Student Council came up with the idea of having a "Switch Day" during Spirit Week, among other various casual dress themes, and it was met with great success. Males were seen toting leather purses, strutting in their worn-in Uggs, and even sporting patterned mini-skirts to show off their "attractive," hairy legs.
1. Lou Adesida and AJ Zuttah sported skirts and girly accents for the whole day. "I cross dressed because I had no more pants to wear," jokes Adesida. 2. Donning a pale green sweater and matching gold necklace, Krys Maingrette enjoyed entertaining his

YEAR IN MEMORIES
"I'll never forget drafting the student constitution because it gave us current students the power to set the precedent of student delegation functions for future generation. It was truly history in the making." CARTER BROAD
"I wrote my first play this year. It means a lot to me just because I spent a good 100 hours on it and it's a story that was inspired at least in part by real events so there's sort of a personal connection to it. It also changed the way I think." -JESSE PAZDERA
"I will always remember singing really loudly and off-key with all my varsity girls' soccer girls on the bus rides to and from games. They're my best friends. I'll look back when I'm older on all the fun times we've had." - LEXI GOLESTANI

After hours and hours of working a x home and in school, the yearbook is finally finished! In what perhaps has been the most challenging and demanding year of production, it is certainly one of the most rewarding feelings to be able to complete such aj| involved task. ^ The yearbook staff and yearbook adviser Heather Mount, developed the theme Fusion in April 2010 at the Herff Jones Yearbook Design clinic after exhausting literally hundreds of other possibilities. This theme was determined under the idea that it would be a creative way to express the diverse nature of our school and its many unique components. Edgerstounian was produced by the yearbook club at The Hun School of Princeton in Princeton, NJ, and printed by Herff Jon%, Inc. in Gettysburg, PA. The account was serviced by representative Caren Demyen a customer service adviser Lisa Kiick. The cover was designed by editor-in-chief Michael Chang, yearbook adviser Heather Mount and Herff Jones Gettysburg plant artist Eric Staub and incorporated a 4/C litho with matte lamination with UV glass lamination. Applied foil included HJ-1F Silver. The endsheets were printed on Classic Soft White CL-2 paper, using 4/C ink. The book's 212 pages are printed on 100# Bordeaux Special stock in full color. All copy was set versions of AHJ Avalon and AHJ Chantilly. Pages were submitted to the plant through the Herff Jones online program, eDesign. Senior and underclassmen portraits were taken by Spencer Studios. Candid photography was taken by the yearbook staff using Canon Rebel xsi cameras. The 2011 Edgerstounian is a student publication and any errors or omissions are not intentional. The 2010 Edgerstounian was featured in Volume 176 of Herff Jones Ideas that Fly which contains samples from 150 of the top-rated yearbook in North America.
