St. Paul's School Fall 2008 Alumni Horae ST. PAul’S SCHOOL FALL 2008 Independent Study Project: A year with Lucy Soderberg ’08 During the Sixth Form year, students are able to apply for an Independent Study Project (ISP), a term- to year- long project that explores one or more of the students' interests in intensive study beyond the classroom. Indepen- dent study projects are student-driven and emphasize the experience and understanding of one's self gained from working in an independent setting. Lucy Soderberg '08, a first-year student at Princeton, spent her Sixth Form year documenting each season at St. Paul's through black-and-white photography. The culmination of Soderberg's project came in the spring, when she displayed her work in an art show at the Gallery in Hargate.

It scored 550 points to opponents' nothing, and journeyed 3500 miles. We played Stanford on New Year's day, using no substitutes. On this great team were Neil Snow, and the remarkable quarterback Boss Weeks. Willie Heston, who [Pg 370]was playing his first year at Michigan, was another star on this team. A picture of Michigan's great team appears on the opposite page. "Boss Weeks' two teams scored more than 1200 points. If that team had been in front of the Chinese Wall and got the signal to go, not a man would have hesitated. Every man that played under Boss Weeks idolized him, and when word was brought to the university that he had died, every Michigan man felt that its university had lost one of its greatest men.

But by August of next year, six Notre Dame graduates may feel a bit differently about Jamaica. By August, these graduates will find themselves no longer students but teachers, and may no longer see Jamaica merely as a resort country, but as their home. Under the leadership of Paul Chang, a 197 5 graduate of Notre Dame, the Jamaican chapter of the Notre Dame Alumni Club is in the process of developing a post-graduate volunteering pro­ gram in Kingston, Jamaica, with a focus on teaching. Chang, who recently visited the University to recruit students and work out administrative details, said he sees education as a means of combating poverty and underdevelopment by providing previously unavailable opportunities to those who need them most. "Through most service experiences you can touch maybe 50 people," said Chang, "but through teaching you might touch more like 200 and see real, leng term effects." The new program will be similar in structure to the Jesuit International Volunteers (JIV), and participants will have interaction with and guid­ ance from JIV volunteers who are already in Kingston. The need for Notre Dame volunteers in Jamaica is great, according to Chang.
