What’s New at Chestnut Hill College?

A

s the class of 2021 arrives on Chestnut Hill College’s campus this year, students will find some expanded educational opportunities and majors and some new personnel in the college’s leadership to help them on their way.

New majors are being introduced on campus: Organizational Dynamics and Security Studies have been added in the School of Continuing & Professional Studies (SCPS) and an Exercise Science major is now available in the School of Undergraduate Studies.

Exercise Science is a new major within the Department of Physical Education and is designed to help students with a love of fitness, health and/or sports performance find their career path. It will provide students with the knowledge, skills and ability to enter a field in the exercise sciences or to enter a graduate program in the exercise sciences or allied health field.

Specialized equipment has been purchased for an exercise physiology lab, which will be used for most of the classes in the curriculum. The Exercise Physiology course provides junior and senior level students a separate laboratory experience that utilizes all the equipment The Organizational Dynamics major will include courses in business administration as well as business communications, human resources management and political science courses. Some key concepts include understanding critical organizational theory, team dynamics, effective communication, negotiation/conflict management, cultural competence and data analytics.

The Security Studies major provides students with professional preparation in areas such as risk analysis, emergency planning, threat assessment and criminal investigation. The Security Studies major

combines courses in security studies with criminal justice, political science, psychology and sociology courses to prepare individuals for careers in emergency management and security services.

The Organizational Dynamics and Security Studies majors are interdisciplinary and are offered in the evenings and on Saturdays in an 8-week accelerated format. Thirty percent of the courses for each of these programs will be available in a hybrid or online format designed for working professionals and individuals who are making career changes.

These programs also offer community college students seamless transfer opportunities with tuition discounts.

CHC has named its first College Officer for Diversity and Inclusion.

Juliana M. Mosley, Ph.D., has worked in higher education for many years, most recently as the Vice President for Student Affairs at Lincoln University. She also has been a Director for Multicultural Affairs and a diversity consultant for 14 years. Dr. Mosley will report directly to the president and will work closely with the Diversity and Inclusion Advisory Committee in training student leaders and incorporating plans for strategies to improve the sense of inclusion on campus that were printed last year in CHC’s A Path Forward.

Christopher Dougherty, Ph.D., has joined CHC as the new Vice President for Academic Affairs and Dean of the Faculty. Previously, Dr. Dougherty served as Provost and Vice President for Academic and Student Affairs at Rosemont College. Dr. Dougherty earned his doctoral degree and a minor in sociology from Penn State University; a master’s degree in Higher Education from the University of Pennsylvania; and a bachelor’s degree in English with a minor in Spanish from Saint Joseph’s University.

Histor y of Chestnut Hill: The suburb in the city they depended on the city for their livelihood and culture.

To this day, Chestnut Hill remains a highly livable suburb in the city.

Bordered by Fairmount Park, the largest city park in the country, and served by two railroad lines, Chestnut Hill offers a vibrant commercial district, low-density housing, and a strong community commitment to a lifestyle worth preserving.

Chestnut Hill,was named by Forbes magazine as one of the top seven urban enclaves in the United States, and one of 12 Distinctive Destinations in America by the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Residents and visitors can leisurely stroll the cobblestone streets, enjoy a delicious meal in one of Chestnut Hill’s many eclectic restaurants, or shop in the upscale boutiques lining historic Germantown Avenue.

Renowned for its delightful shopping and dining, Chestnut Hill is also home to the Woodmere Art Muse-

C

hestnut Hill became part of Philadelphia in 1854 when the state legislature annexed some 129 square miles to the old city of Philadelphia, which occupied the land between the Schuykill and the Delaware Rivers.

The village of Chestnut Hill lay ten miles north of city hall and served as a way station for travelers and a gathering place for the surrounding farms and the mills operating on the Wissahickon Creek.

According to Chestnut Hill College Prof. David R. Contosta’s definitive history, Suburb in the City: Chestnut Hill, Philadelphia, 18501990, prosperous Philadelphians first headed to Chestnut Hill to escape the summer heat of the low-lying old city.

When the railroad provided a link in 1854, suburban development took off. The village provided services to the new suburbanites and the new commuters lived in the comfortable, breezy enclave of Chestnut Hill while

CHC ready for expanded Sprint Football League season

(Continued from page 2) Stagecrafters has put on hundreds of plays. They call themselves “a nonprofit, semi-professional theater.”

However, their shows are substantially better than the high school plays you are probably used to. More of their lineup for the season can be found on their website: thestagecrafters.org If you’re interested in volunteering at the theater, they are always looking for college students to help with set design, construction, lights, sound, costumes, hair, ushering, tickets, and more.

Trolley Car Diner 7619 Germantown Avenue trolleycardiner.com Ever craving pancakes for dinner, but don’t feel like making them in your dorm’s kitchen?

There’s a simple solution - go to the Trolley Car Diner. There, breakfast is served all day, milkshakes are named after duos from history, and classic sandwiches are on the menu, too.

Additionally, a real trolley car is right next to the diner and serves as the Ice Cream Shoppe. Students can walk up to window and choose from sixteen flavors of Nelson’s ice cream, all locally made.

Weavers Way Co-op 8424 Germantown Ave. weaversway.coop A healthy alternative to the temptations of junk food, Weavers Way is a close-by spot to pick up fresh fruits and vegetables, healthy soups and frozen entrees and prepared foods. Next door is Weavers Way next door with a selection of natural and organic health and beauty products.

Wissahickon Valley Park fow.org Bigger than Central Park in Manhattan, the Wissahickon Valley Park is part of Fairmount Park, one of the largest urban park systems in the world. The Wissahickon Creek runs right through the woods, giving the park its name. Locals sometimes refer to the park as Valley Green, too.

All throughout the year, people visit the park for recreation. Pedestrians, equestrians, and bikers may favor Forbidden Drive, a mostly flat, gravel road closed to cars. The easiest entrance, close to campus is at the end of Northwestern Ave. However, if students want more of a hiking, hilly challenge, they can embark on one of the many trails.

Some trails lead to the Indian, a large statue of a Lenape warrior overlooking the trees. Also, you can visit the Thomas Mill Covered Bridge, a large, red bridge, connecting Forbidden Drive to more trails.

Woodmere Art Museum 9201 Germantown Avenue woodmereartmuseum.org Housed in a 19th-century stone mansion on six acres in Chestnut Hill, Woodmere Art Museum is dedicated to the art and artists of Philadelphia. The building and grounds, together with the core of the collection, are the gifts of Charles Knox Smith (1845 – 1916), who purchased the estate in 1898 with the intent of transforming it into a showcase for his great collection of art. Smith opened Woodmere’s doors to the public in 1910.

It’s free for students with a valid college ID.

fter playing an abbreviated Collegiate Sprint Football League schedule in their inaugural season in 2015, Chestnut Hill College (2-5) showed they belonged in 2016. The Griffins went 2-5 against a full slate of games in 2016.Doubling their 2015 honorees, the Scarlet and Gold garnered 14 spots on the All-CSFL roster, including CSFL Freshman of the Year, quarterback Michael Mariino (Blue Bell, Pa.). Sprint football is simply a lesser-known brand of football. It operates under the same rules as regular college football, with one exception: all players must weigh less than 172 pounds.

This year, the CSFL will split into a North and a South Division in, while adding a league championship game that will feature the division leaders at the home of the league's best record. The previously established weight limit of 172 pounds will increase for the first time since 2003, now resting at 178 pounds with review scheduled in four-year periods.

With the addition of Caldwell University, the CSFL expands to a nine members. The Cougars will

join Chestnut Hill College, Mansfield University, the University of Pennsylvania, and the United States Naval Academy in the league's South Division. Meanwhile, the North Division will house Army West Point, Cornell University, Franklin Pierce University, and Post University.
