The Annual Report Letter from the Alumni Association President

To say your Alumni Association has been busy this past year would be a crowning understatement. It is hard to believe that we just celebrated our school’s 54tg Birthday with cupcakes for the entire school. The students also joined us in singing “Happy Birthday” to our Alma Mater at each lunch period. This time last year birthday celebrations were hardly at the forefront of any Archdiocesan high school. But last February, we were able to celebrate not only the saving of four of our sister schools, but also the change of organizational structure of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia. The Faith in the Future Foundation ushers in a new era of growth and stability for bedrock Catholic high schools throughout the Philadelphia area. Our school is excited about being a part of the future of Catholic schools in Philadelphia.

The Alumni Association year also saw us form a successful Scholarship Committee and distribute our annual scholarships to the children of our alumni. Last Spring, we held a very successful Mentor Day in which 40 alums returned to speak to current McDevitt students about the career path that McDevitt helped them to achieve. In March, we had a fantastic Spring Fling at the school that brought a night of dinner and dancing for nearly 150 of our alumni. In April, we honored three more alumni by conferring upon them our school’s greatest honor-- induction into the Hall of Fame for Bishop McDevitt High School. In May, the Association inducted 178 new members from the Class of 2012, and your Association was proudly present at both the Baccalaureate Mass and graduation at Arcadia University for this exceptional class. In October, we hosted one of the best annual golf outings in years which helped to raise money for Alumni Association events throughout the year, as well as our scholarship program for the children of McDevitt alumni now attending our school. The legacy lives on in a big way on Royal Avenue. And in November we held our annual Memorial Mass remembering those among our alumni who left this world much too soon.

However, the biggest achievement of the year by our alumni is to give us our new President, Steve Finley, from the Class of 1969. In just five short months, he has already begun to steer our school on a course that keeps a sharp eye on the future, but also bring back many of the great McDevitt successes of the past to ensure our school is the first choice of 8th Grade students throughout the area. The vibe inside the building is an exciting atmosphere of success and spirit that only a graduate from the decade of the 60’s can bring, and that many of us can remember with soul warming fondness.

While the future at McDevitt could not look brighter, also know that securing our future is the role of every alum. Our students attending McDevitt need your help. That means come back to McDevitt and be a mentor. That means come back to McDevitt and volunteer your time and talents. That means come back and represent your class on the Alumni Board. You will agree that each McDevitt graduate is unique. Wherever you go, you will meet a fellow alum, and instantly feel a kinship to that person. That is legacy, and for the legacy to continue in that unique way, you need to contribute our school’s greatest asset: You. If you want to help at McDevitt, call me at 215.901.9333, and I will be glad to help you come back to your future. Thank you, Table of Contents

3 My Seoul By Claire Meaney ‘13

When I was little, I was a momma’s girl. I stayed home, I helped with chores, I talked for hours, all with my mom. Never did I think that I would grow a set of huge wings and fly off to South Korea this past summer. While I’d always dreamed of traveling, I never really thought I would do it, at least, not without my family. This summer, however, I was one of fifty American students chosen for the National Security Language Initiative for Youth program funded by the U.S. Department of State to study in Seoul, South Korea. The application took hours and the wait for results was painfully long, but when I found out I was picked from over a thousand semi-finalists alone, I was stunned. Through the program and its international associates, I was placed with a loving host family. My father and two sisters were all fluent in Korean, Chinese, and English, but my host mother knew only Korean. Our broken conversations and moments of understanding are some of my most cherished memories, each day having given us little blessings in disguise. While there, I studied Korean at one of South Korea’s top colleges: Sogang University. There, we were sorted into classes and learned Korean intensively for six weeks. The classes spanned from 1:00pm to 5:00pm everyday excluding weekends, leaving the rest of our time to discover Seoul for ourselves.

We were helped along the way by the staff members of the program as well as our own support groups of three or four people. Each group had a supporter, a Korean college student who spent Tuesday and Thursday mornings with us to help teach us more Korean as well as experience Korean culture at historical places. My own group was just three people; myself, my friend Megan, and our supporter Dongchan. We explored Seoul together and grew very close. I’ve also found some of my greatest friends in Korean students I met while in Seoul. We hung out often after we American students would finish school, meeting around the university in Sinchon or in other populated areas of the city like Gangnam or Hongdae. We would walk for hours together just talking, half in Korean half in English, about everything and anything. They were our best tour guides and friends. Other American students from the program are some of my closest friends as well. It’s strange thinking that now my best friends live in Nevada, Texas, and Saudi Arabia and I can’t just see them in class or to walk with them by the Cheonggyecheon, a stream that became one of our favorite places to talk. Many of the staff members told us that culture shock could be bad, but reverse culture shock is worse. They were right. It’s been difficult adjusting back into my routine here in America, but I don’t regret the struggle it is. My experience in South Korea has made me so much stronger and more confident that I’m ready to take on this, my senior year at McDevitt. It’s not going to be easy, but I’m glad to be back and taking on the world. Soon, I’ll be applying to universities and hoping for scholarships, but I’ll also be wishing for something else: another trip to South Korea. Hopefully, with a little hard work and dedication, I can find my way back to Seoul for another year of 4 experiencing the rich culture I’ve fallen in love with. My Country By Gabe Dwyer ‘13

Bancroft Hall United State Naval Academy

James and Gabe Dwyer - Herndon Monument Cadet Honor Code United State Military Academy United States Naval Academy

During the beginning of this summer, I had the opportunity to spend a week at two of the finest institutions in the world, The United States Naval Academy and The United States Military Academy at West Point. I attended their Summer Seminars. The seminars are an opportunity for a candidate to experience academy life, and an opportunity for the academies to assess the candidate. From June 2 to June 7, I slept, swam, ate, and ran on the very same facilities utilized by the Navy Midshipmen during the academic year. Each day consisted of four classes that I chose prior to my arrival in Annapolis. The eight classes that I took were martial arts, mathematics, ship design, physics, chemistry, ship simulation, damage control, and systems and weapons. Day 5 was military day; a day of intense activities beginning with a morning swim starting around 7am. Other activities throughout the day included water PT in the Severn River, running the E-course (endurance course), and classic log PT. The day finished with a replica I-Day (Induction Day). Overall the experience at the Naval Academy was great. I returned home for a day to take an exam at McDevitt, and off to West Point the next day. From June 9 to June 15, I walked the same grounds and halls as the Cadets from West Point that include Douglas MacArthur, Ulysses S. Grant, and Robert E. Lee. The Seminar at West Point was very similar to that of the Naval Academy. Each day was high speed and action packed. There I took one major class each day. These classes included; Arabic, Mathematics, and Systems Engineering. Day 6 at West Point was our military day. Activities included running the confidence course, the leadership course, fighting in the martial arts pit, running the speed course and learning about combat engineering. The experience at West Point was definitely one I will remember for the rest of my life. The two experiences had their similarities and differences. For example, The Naval Academy is in the heart of the capital of Maryland, while West Point takes its historical strategic position high in the mountains of New York on the Hudson River. At each seminar, candidates took the CFA or Candidate Fitness Assessment and slept and ate in the same facilities as students attending the academies. It was an extremely fast paced and intense way to start off the summer, and I would do it all over again if I could. I am honored to have been given the opportunity to attend both of these prestigious seminars, and hope to attend one of this institutions in the Fall.

McDevitt Alum Christopher DiCamillo ‘09 was the featured story in Immaulata Magazine for the Fall 2012 Edition.

If you ask Christopher DiCamillo to name his favorite performance piece, he pauses. It isn’t an easy question, but DiCamillo is accustomed to searching his mind and heart for answers. His response, thoughtful and poignant, reflects the level of artistic sensibility and sophistication fostered by Immaculata’s music program.

Cardinal Dougherty Cross Bishop McDevitt is honored to display a part of Cardinal Doughtery’s history. The cemet cross was found on top of Cardinal Dougherty’s building. With the help of Cardinal Doughtery Alum Joe McQuillan ‘57, and over one hundred other Dougherty Alums, the cross was relocated to Bishop McDevitt’s campus. Thank you for the support of this project!
