  • Confucius a Foundation of Eastern Thought OPENING NOTE
    ST. JOHN’S COLLEGE FALL 2017 VOLUME 42, ISSUE 2 Confucius A Foundation of Eastern Thought OPENING NOTE During these past 12 months, you may have read articles in The College and on our website highlighting the 50th anniversary celebration of the Gradu- ate Institute—stories about such alumni as Ariel Winnick (SF11, EC12), who is studying medicine at Ben- Gurion University’s Medical School for International Health in Israel; Mary-Charlotte Domandi (SFGI91), an award-winning broadcast journal- ist; and David Hysong (AGI11), whose success in cancer therapy development landed him in Forbes magazine’s “30 Under 30.” You may have also recon- nected with fellow alumni at Home- coming this fall in Annapolis or Santa Fe, where special seminars, dinners, and other events took place to mark the milestone anniversary. In this issue of The College, we continue to recognize GI alumni accomplishments. We also shine light on a key enterprise in the history of the Graduate Institute: the Eastern Classics program. Founded more than 20 years ago on the Santa Fe campus, David McDonald (SF95) describes the EC program as “a way of seeing how the human mind responds to universal problems and universal questions.” Sound familiar? Like Plato, Aristotle, Hegel, and Woolf, the Eastern Classics authors—Confucius, Lao Tzu, Kālidāsa, and Sei Shōnagon, among others—beckon us to exam- ine human nature through a fresh lens that is both timeless and timely, unique and universal.

This process would have been exponentially harder without you all. Thank you.

She left a job at the Rockefeller Foundation in 2003 to start her own global nonprofit organization, working with communities around the globe, focusing on African nations. She travels internationally approximately four months of the year, helping people advocate for themselves for social change. Her work includes clean water initiatives, vaccination campaigns, education for females, and HIV/AIDS prevention. I will never forget the moment she told me “After visiting clinics and seeing AIDS patients die, I would rather be shot in the face than infected with HIV.” This is one of the most powerful statements I have ever heard, and it shaped the person that I am now. Hearing words like this from my mother put the fear of HIV in me, so I decided to educate myself about the virus in order to be an advocate for prevention.

  • Protecting Public Health in New York City: 200 Years of Leadership
    PROTECTING PUBLIC HEALTH IN NEW YORK CITY: 200 YEARS OF LEADERSHIP 1805-2005 T HE N EW Y ORK C ITY D EPARTMENT OF H EALTH AND M ENTAL H YGIENE Protecting Public Health in New York City: 200 Years of Leadership ~ 1805-2005 Michael R. Bloomberg Mayor Thomas R. Frieden, MD, MPH Commissioner April 2005 marks the bicentennial of the New York City Board of Health, the predecessor of the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. New York City’s illustrious history of public health leadership began in the early 1800s, when the city controlled epidemics of Yellow Fever and cholera. In the early 1900s, the Department opened the first public health laboratory that applied bacteriological knowledge to prevent and control disease. In the late 1900s, the Department implemented model programs to fight new and re-emerging infectious diseases. And in the century just begun, we have launched programs to prevent and control major chronic diseases. The Board’s 200th anniversary is an appropriate time for us to review the many public health challenges that the Board and the Department have met over the years, and to reflect on the lessons these experiences hold for our future. ~ Thomas R.
