The Dubliner Winter 2007 • 3 Commencement 2006eadmaster Christopher Horgan welcomed everyone to Dublin School’s 70th Commencement. He acknowl- Hedged the accomplishments, struggles and growth of the Class of 2006. Noting that their thoughts may already be turning to the summer months and beyond, he urged them for just awhile to focus on that day and that moment. And as last words of advice he exhorted them to “read…develop good health habits…strive to be around people who respect, challenge, and love you…and to separate the truth from an almost incalculable number of sources of bad information.” In concluding, he honored the Class of 2006 by reading an excerpt from Emerson’s Monadnock. Arts Department Chair Jan Haman was selected by the Class of 2006 to give the Goodbye to Seniors. Not surprising for those who know Jan, she focused on passion, caring, laughing, and having opinions. She spoke of the uniqueness of Dublin School, sharing many special memories of the Class of 2006 and concluded by telling the graduates “you can make the difference…do your best…care about your communities; care about others’ children. Do it for yourselves, your own kids, your country.” Genesis Mullins thanked the School community for the support and friendship that it always provided. She thanked her classmates for their “individualities and differences that allowed me to open my eyes to different ideas and objective ways to thinking.” She also thanked her teachers for “their unconditional efforts to teach and evoke a fire in me to want to learn more.” Lisa Cameron urged her classmates to “use truth to develop your identity in the bigger world” and to “have courage to face the opportunities and challenges that may arise.” She asked the Class of 2006 to “leave Dublin knowing this phase in your life is over, but another is about to start…look back on this experience and treasure it…remember who you were when you came here, and see who you are now, as you leave.” 4 • Dublin School Spring ’07 Admission Report by Sheila Bogan, Admission Director he Admissions office has been extremely busy this past year!
