Project Spotlight Marquette Basketball Scores a Win with Sona ABOUT THE PROJECT Marquette University is a Jesuit University of nearly 12,000 students in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. It’s also home of the Golden Eagles and a storied basketball program that was home to coach Al McGuire and players like Doc Rivers and Dwayne Wade. So when the time came for new seating in the Al McGuire Center locker rooms, it was no small project. This was bound to be a high-profile job. Kelly Sullivan of Interior Investments works regularly with Marquette and had placed SitOnIt INSTALL FACTS: Seating products in various installations throughout the school. When she got the request for locker room seating, she knew she where to find a great product that could be personalized – Sales Rep: Larry Fehrm Associates Sona, from SitOnIt Seating. Dealer: Interior Investments, LLC Time Frame: April - Oct. 2014 WHAT MADE THE DIFFERENCE? Product: Sona Kelly was able to get renderings of chairs with the Marquette Golden Eagles logo on them. She remembered seeing pictures of the personalized chairs SitOnIt Seating had made for the LA Kings and knew this could be a key selling point. If professional teams were using the chairs, she thought, Marquette might be interested. The facilities staff at the university asked Kelly to bring in chairs for a sit test. They liked the simplicity of the line and the lean, elegant design. But most importantly, they liked the comfort and feel of the chair. The Sona sample went around the Athletic Department, where, to Kelly’s surprise, many were ordered for individual use at desks and workstations. The university made the decision for the basketball program and ordered Sona chairs for the locker rooms in dark blue, to match the school colors. Kelly worked with the university to get the logo and make sure the placement was correct. The chairs went into production with the logo and the whole project moved quickly – about 8 weeks from start to finish. The Al McGuire Center project brought in honors from the American Society of Interior Designers, winning the 2014 Design Excellence Award for Entertainment and Recreation. WHAT’S NEXT With such a successful project already installed, Marquette University has standardized on other SitOnIt Seating products. Torsa and Amplify have recently become university standards. And with more major projects in the pipeline at Marquette, SitOnIt Seating is sure to be in play for years to come. 6415 Katella Avenue, Cypress, CA 90630 p (888) 274-8664 f (714) 995-4855 sitonit.net.

Milwaukee Neighborhood Guide: Avenues West Dominic Inouye July 21, 2017
Photo by Austin Anderson (AA Photography) Photo by Austin Anderson (AA Photography) MILWAUKEE NEIGHBORHOOD GUIDE: AVENUES WEST DOMINIC INOUYE JULY 21, 2017 Welcome to Milwaukee’s Avenues West, a neighborhood born of contrasts in the late 1800s: the grandeur of mansion-lined Grand Avenue, the poverty of Irish workers on Tory Hill, and the ambition of a little college named Marquette. A neighborhood, like so many in Milwaukee, poised for change. History Just west of downtown, Avenues West runs from 11th to 27th Streets, Highland Avenue to Clybourn Street — or, using the most obvious landmark, it is the northwest quadrant of the Marquette Interchange. This neighborhood has been a study in contrasts since its inception in the late 1800s. Milwaukee’s elite gravitated west along Spring Street in the 1870s, so many that by 1876 the thoroughfare was renamed “Grand Avenue.” Mansions owned by Cudahy, Plankington, and Pabst contrasted with the Tory Hill homes of the primarily Irish workers of the Menomonee Valley. The city experienced a population boom, money started moving outside the city, and mansions became apartments or multi-family dwellings. The Gothic parish Church, Gesu, arrived in 1894; Marquette became a university in 1907; the Irish began moving to Merrill Park and other residents took their place: Eastern Europeans first, then Latinos and African Americans. When the city expanded farther west during the first part of the century and Grand Avenue became “Wisconsin Avenue,” new institutions like the Ambassador Hotel and the Eagles Club helped keep up appearances, unwittingly or not emphasizing the contrasts. The 1960s construction of the Marquette Interchange cemented Avenues West as a distinct neighborhood, where contrasts co-existed and still do so.

Basketball and Life (With Al Mcguire)
Basketball and Life (with Al McGuire) Introduction Every coach must be himself. Here are some of the things that I feel are important in life as well as in the game of basketball. Only take what fits your personality and your style of coaching. Live In the Moment When I was 12 or 13 years old, I was down at the beach, body-riding the waves. I came home for lunch, and my grandmother fixed me a triple sandwich of fried bread with catsup. I loved them, and I used to eat them all the time. When I finished, there was this big beautiful yellow banana. She said "Alfie, take the banana." And I said "No, Granny, I want it, but I'll take a pass." She said "Why?" And I said "I want it, but if I eat the banana, I'll have to stay out of the water for an hour because of cramps. I rushed back to the beach. The wind kicked up, and it got too cold to swim. I sat on the boardwalk stairs looking out at the ocean, too young to understand what I was thinking. But I thought, it's too cold to go swimming; I wish I had eaten the banana. When I was 21, I thought about life and finally said to myself, "I will eat the banana". Live in the moment that you are in. Make your life exciting. Do what you have to do, as long as you don't hurt people. Dream Big Every one must dream. I don't care what your dreams are, but dream big.
