Dear Friends,

How do you define Leadership? Can it be taught, or is it learned by “osmosis” through exposure to inspiring, charismatic individuals? Are we born with—or with- out—an innate ability and desire to lead?

Not easy questions to answer, are they? In over twenty years in education I’ve lis- tened to and engaged in countless debates on the subject as it applies to school com- munities and students.

Here’s what I do know. Inspiring young people to lead begins with some version of the following statement: “You can do it.” Simple as that. The “it” could be large or small and apply to a moment or a lengthy span of time. And the teacher, coach, dorm parent or advisor who makes this statement must be someone who has earned respect and, most of all, trust. He or she is a role model so the “You can do it” carries with it a challenge worthy of a youngster’s best efforts.

At a time when so many schools across the country are becoming cautious—cutting programs and teachers and opportunities—we’re strategically expanding them in the firm belief that placed into the right situation with the right adult, every girl and We welcome your boy can thrive, even lead. comments!

Wyly Defining Leadership

s the student leadership group on campus, MCI’s Student Council is taking this year’s School theme of Leadership: Service to Aand Sacrifice for others very seriously. At the beginning of this school year, the Student Council ratified a new constitution, one that redefined its role at the school to be more centered on student culture and student voice. A dedicated group of officers spent hours during the summer (and last spring) discussing the change, considering implications and deciding how to present to the full Council the goals and the paradigm shift that led to the new constitution. The new constitution also directly chal- lenges the Student Council members to be leaders with their classmates and to accept the personal responsibility that accom- panies leadership roles. In addition, the Student Council has split the traditional Student of the Month award into two awards: the Academic Student of the Month and the Student Leadership Recognition Award. Students nominated for the Leadership Award are positive role models; are active and positive school citizens; and are ethical, friendly and courteous and encourage others to be their best. They have also begun a student forum to give the student body increased opportunity to have a voice in what is happening on campus.

After learning about the many changes that are taking place on campus as the students redefine and revamp leadership roles, we were motivated and inspired to look further into the topic of leadership here at MCI and asked the following questions of some influential leaders in the MCI community: What is your favorite MCI memory? Who was the most influential “leader” in your life while at MCI (faculty member, coach, etc.)? What does leadership mean to you (how do you define leadership)? Please relate an MCI experience or write about what you learned at MCI that helped you to lead in some fashion later in life. As you will see through the article, MCI has actively fostered its students’ and alums’ life-long learning, character development and leadership growth by providing the knowledge, skills and experiences that benefit them over a lifetime.

Allison Sinclair ’12 Student Council President, Senior Class President (Pittsfield, Me)

Favorite MCI Memory: My favorite MCI memory is hosting girls from Aomori, Japan each year. It is such a wonderful opportunity to build relationships with these girls, and I will cherish their friendships forever. most influential “leader” in your life while at MCI: My most influential leader in my life while at MCI would have to be Tanya Kingsbury. Not only is she the Spanish teacher here, but the Student Council advisor as well. She is such a strong woman, and has influenced the person I have become in many ways. I admire her confidence in who she is and what she believes in, and hope that I can be a strong leader just as she is. Defining leadership: To me, leadership means positively influencing those around you to make the right decisions, and if they don’t, encouraging them to do better next time. Experiences at MCI that will help me to lead later in life: At MCI, I have learned that being an effective communicator is one of the most important qualities someone can possess. The best thing to do is talk to people one-on-one. In doing so, you will build stronger relationships than you can imagine. Human interaction makes the greatest impact.

Favorite MCI Memory: I loved Winter Carnival, which in so many ways captured the MCI spirit: coming together with friends, working on shared, big projects, the snow sculptures, decorating the gym, the bands, the dances, and the festive, relatively carefree moments. most influential “leader” in your life while at MCI: I recall fondly many inspired and inspiring teachers, committed to conveying the subjects and committed to their students: Charles Berndtson, Peg Witham, Gilbert Spear, Peter Bradshaw, Frank Hazeltine, Fred Kohler, Hazel Earle (OK, I didn’t take Latin, but it was inspiring just to know she was there), Janet Forbes, Paul Legge, Tom Huston, Kemp Pottle, John Dana, Tom Burgoyne and others. To single out one in particular, I would mention the headmaster, Edward R. Stanley, who set a tone of decorum, civility, hard work, and high expectation. When I talk with MCI friends or read about what alumni are doing in their lives and communities, I see how much the ethic of work and service has permeated the lives of so many of us who were really privileged to be part of that sort of educational community. Defining leadership: I think balance, empathy, and respect were values that were conveyed through work and play, classroom and extracurricular, town and out of town, day in day out, give and take (or take and give), trying to understand the per- spective and concerns of others. I was once advised by one of my mentors never to take an administrative position because anything I did could be reversed. It wasn’t advice I followed, but advice I have never forgotten. I think what endures may be the values framework one creates that allows others to succeed, rather than any specific accomplishment. Leadership is more about communicating a vision for a better or- ganization, though taking the hard decisions may contribute to that understanding. Experiences at MCI that helped me to lead later in life: I think the Manson Essay was a much more formative experience than I realized at the time. All those steps were wonderful preparation for big projects to follow: deciding on a topic, consultation with supervisor, reading and more reading, stacks of 3x5 index cards, organizing, outlining, writing, and rewriting and rewriting, preparing for oral pre- sentation, memorizing, meeting the deadline, facing anxiety, mastering anxiety, over- “When I talk with MCI friends or read about coming procrastination, facing the lights, facing the music, reconsidering.

Joo Yi ’98 Team Manager, Tencent (Seoul, Korea)

Favorite MCI Memory: Senior year, Winter Carnival where I believe we built Disney sculptures (Mickey and Donald) to take the win. Loads and loads of snow made it tough but lots of fun as well. most influential “leader” in your life while at MCI: Mrs. Deb Rozeboom - mentor, inspira- tion, host mom, AP English teacher, American Mom Defining leadership: A leader to me is someone that leads by example. The inspirational part is actually witnessing how that leader treats those around him/her. Just telling someone to do some- thing or act a certain way doesn’t really motivate people unless the leaders themselves are actually practicing what they preach. Experiences at MCI that helped me to lead later in life: Being a foreigner, the cozy town of Pittsfield and the atmosphere of MCI has instilled the importance of a close-knit community and how good it feels to belong somewhere. The memories and friendships I have made at MCI have definitely made me grow as a person and for that I will always be grateful. Fall / Winter 2012 13 Defining Leadership Judith Vacchina ’62 President, Amazatto Foods (Pleasanton, CA) Favorite MCI Memory: 1960, when Mrs. Sinclair appointed a few of us from her class to escort U.S. Senator Margaret Chase Smith from another class to ours. Talk about feeling special, we knew just how important she was as Mrs. Sinclair had done a fine job of telling us. most influential “leader” in your life while at MCI: Mrs. Sinclair, she was stern, kind and car- ing. She was meticulous of herself and our class. There was a special elegance about her. Others were Mr. Cunningham, Mrs. Sidelinger and Mrs. Pottle. Each one of these teachers was at MCI because they loved teaching. Defining leadership: Leadership to me, means being able to facilitate people to find their best strength to achieve their goals, and building confidence. Some people need to be led requiring each step to be dictated and some thrive with free reign. Knowing the difference is the key to good leadership. Be patient, kind and understand it takes time to find your place. My mother always said “kindness, you get more with honey than vinegar.” She was right. Experiences at MCI that helped me to lead later in life: I think we had excellent instructors, people who cared and took their job seriously. Our classes were small and we had the attention we needed. I was too young to appreciate what we had and, to be honest, if I had paid more attention I would have learned Peter Cianchette ’79 a lot more. I’ve been very lucky. Vice President of Business Development, Cianbro former United States Ambassador to Costa Rica (South Portland, ME) Favorite MCI Memory: I was proud to be a part of MCI and have so many fond memories of my time there – the excitement of earning leadership positions in our class or sports, starting in my first varsity football game, ski team trips to Aroostook County, Winter Carnival, the fellowship of Key Club, and being inspired by some really great teachers (although it might have been years later when I truly realized they had inspired me!) Looking back, what is most prominent in my mind is the sense of respect between the diverse student body, those students and the faculty, and the school as a whole with Pittsfield. most influential “leader” in your life while at MCI: Headmaster Harry “Pinky” True Defining leadership: I’ve always subscribed to President Dwight D. Eisenhower’s theory: “Leadership is the art of getting someone else to do something you want done because he wants to do it.” At the time, I never could have imagined how the opportunities I had at MCI to experience and practice leadership skills would serve my life in so many ways. Experiences at MCI that helped me to lead later in life: MCI has a unique relationship with Pitts- field, and no doubt serves to strengthen the strong sense of community which exists in the Central Maine area. It was there I first began to understand that once you have the privilege to experience true community, that you have an obligation to give back to it. To this day, I credit growing up in Pittsfield and my time at MCI, coupled with the teachings of my parents, for what has been an important part of my life: a strong belief in public service and the desire to work to improve our communities.

“I’ve always subscribed to President Dwight D. Eisenhower’s theory: ‘Leadership is the art of getting someone else to do something you want done because he wants to do it.’” Dean Homstead ’69 Owner, Bud’s Shop ’n Save Supermarkets (Pittsfield, ME)

Favorite MCI Memory: Meeting new people, making lifelong friendships, being exposed to new experiences and cultures and watching and participating in the growth of the School are my favorite memories of MCI, both as a student and as a trustee. It would be hard to carve out one favorite memory. It has been the whole MCI experience. most influential “leader” in your life while at MCI: Although there were many influ- ential leaders while I attended MCI, David Mosher stands out as the most influential one. He was a great educator, a very genuine individual, always willing to help others and share interesting stories with his students. He bridged the gap between educator and student and without compromising his leadership role. Defining leadership: Respecting others, sharing knowledge, being inclusive, offering op- portunities whenever possible and trying to make the best decisions is how I define leader- ship. Experiences at MCI that helped me to lead later in life: While at MCI, I learned to 14 Alumnus Magazine go the extra mile in order to resolve differences and to respect the fact that others may have different views. This came about when MCI and the District split for two years. Dr. Susan Haseltine ’67 Retired, Associate Director for Biology, U.S. Geological Survey (Oakton, VA)

Dr. Risha Moskalewicz ’01 Second year pediatric resident, University of California San Francisco (San Francisco, CA)

Favorite MCI Memory: Surprisingly, one of my favorite MCI memories is sitting in Latin class and contemplating the “Putate” sign that Mrs. Earle had posted behind her desk. This quote seems to mesh with what my whole MCI experience gave me the ability to do. Whether Humanities Colloquium, trying to decipher that Hamlet text in English, studying Russian history as opposed to the US, or fig- uring out what liquids to combine in chemistry, everyone emphasized expanding your thoughts and discovering more than one way to get to a solution or different understanding of the situation. most influential “leader” in your life while at MCI: Dr. Moskalewicz at a pediatric clinic in Ethiopia There were so many excellent teachers and mentors at MCI while I attended – Mr. Lewis made literature and the beauty of the written word appreciated even before content; Mr. Bradshaw and Mr. Bartlett “The most meaningful thing I can say about made history come alive so that you wanted to see the rest of the leadership is this: You can only become a leader world; Mr. Stanley and Mr. Dana were always ready with advice and counsel with just enough humor to carry the day. But I would have when you are passionate about the cause.” to say that Mr. Gil Spear, who taught me geometry, was the most influential. He had a disability and came to class every day in his wheelchair, used the devices of the day - crude by modern standards - to communicate effectively and was such a great teacher that he made plane geometry interesting! He was an inspiration and a spur to all of us to use our abilities and make our way in the world. Carlton Pendleton ’66 Defining leadership: Leadership can come in many forms, but one President and CEO, Sweetser must have a clear, long-term vision of a goal or destination to lead. If that vision is comprehensive and consistent, then leadership requires (Saco, ME) communication and inspiration to other folks who can help reach the Favorite MCI Memory: There isn’t only one fa- goal.

Experiences at MCI that helped me to lead later in life: At most influential “leader” in your life while MCI, we were always encouraged to expand our horizons and try new at MCI: The headmaster, Mr. Stanley, was honest, things.
