Celebrating 125 Years! The TI Legend The Tiger Inn Newsletter Spring, 2016 Celebrating 125 years! On February 20, 2016 over 200 Tiger Inn alumni, partners, and spouses came to celebrate TI’s 125th anniversary at the Westin in Princeton. Members arrived from up and down the eastern seaboard and represented sections from 1949 through 2015. John Bernard ‘49 was the oldest alumnus and outgoing President Grace Larson ‘16 and Vice President Cole Lampman’ 16 were the youngest in attendance. During Hap Copper’s ‘83 welcome remarks, a spontaneous contest of TI chants broke out among the younger and older alumni. The energy in the room became palable as a chant came from one side of the room and then the other, both different but the same in the strong feelings for Tiger Inn. Dinner and dancing followed. The music of The East Coast Band and a cameo appearance of The Blues Brothers got people on thier feet and the dance floor was rocking.The evening finished back at Tger Inn as buses shuttled people back and forth from the hotel to the club, and back again. Tiger Inn was open and on-tap for current members, alumni, and guests to celebrate TI’s 125th annivsary.

A return envelope is provided for your convenience Alumni of the Tiger Inn, This past year has been a great and historic year for the club as we have grown from the issues that led to tumultuous times in the recent past. I’m writing you all to introduce myself as the next Presi- dent of Tiger Inn and to assure you that the club is set to thrive again in 2016. I am proud to share with you that we have added 113 new members this year, a group consisting of 101 mem- bers of the Class of 2018 and 12 members of the Class of 2017. We are thrilled about the outcome of Bicker and couldn’t be more excited about these new members and the future of our club. Additionally, our membership is as accomplished as ever athletically. Brett Harner ’17, Ray O’Donnell ’17, Jordan Laster ’17, and Jonathan Schleifer ‘18 recently competed in the 2016 NCAA Wrestling Championships. Harner performed particularly well as he became the 9th All-American in the history of the Princeton Wrestling Team, capping off a great season for all of our wrestling Back row left to right: Connor Moore (president), comrades. We also are fortunate enough to have several Jeffrey Williamson (house manager), Chris Kennedy members of both the Men’s and Women’s Volleyball (treasurer). Front row left to right: Joy Zou (saftey chair), Susan Zhou (vice president) and Amanda teams. The Women’s team finished their season as 2015 Rutherford (social chair). Ivy League Champions. Our membership also features many of the players on both the Men’s and Women’s Water Polo teams. The Men’s team finished their season ranked 10th in the country and the Women are working towards another successful season as I write this letter. The Class of 2018 consists of several members who play sports that previously were not represented in the membership, including members of the Men’s Lacrosse Team, Women’s and Men’s Rowing teams. I’d like to take a moment to introduce our newly elected undergraduate officers, who I could not be more excited to work with for the upcoming year. I am a former football player concentrating in American History. Susan Zhou is our new Vice President who studies biology with a focus in global health. She also serves as the Vice President of the Student Health Advisory Board. Our new social chair is Amanda Rutherford, a coxswain on the Women's Open Weight Crew team and a Woodrow Wilson School major. Jeff Williamson, our House Manager, is a history major with a certificate in diplomacy. He has just finished his third season on the swim team and loves to travel. Chris Kennedy is TI's new Treasurer. He is in the Economics department and is a captain on the Men's Volleyball Team. Finally, our new Safety and Communications Chair is Joy Zou who is in the ORFE depart- ment with certificates in Engineering Management Systems and Environmentalism. My primary goal for the upcoming year is to maintain the fun and welcoming environment estab- lished by our predecessors. I appreciate the trust you put in us, and look forward to the year ahead! Thank you, Connor Moore ‘17.

    Education Secretary Praises Foundation In area visit, Riley calls teacher program a model for success By Lanning Taliaferro, Staff Writer, Gannett Newspapers Thursday, May 14, 1998 Former US Secretary of Education, Richard Riley congratulates first year TSTT college student, Mario Saurez. U.S. Education Secretary Richard Riley praised a Westchester County-based education foundation last night, calling for more initiatives like it across the country to link secondary schools and colleges. Riley said the foundation and its biggest program, Today's Students, Tomorrow's Teachers, would be models for a collaborative project, High Hopes for College, that he and President Clinton have asked Congress to fund. "The key is partnership," he said. "Things that work well in this country generally are partnerships." Riley was the keynote speaker at the Learning Foundation of Putnam-Northern Westchester's annual leadership awards program at the Armonk headquarters of the investment company, MBIA Inc. The gala honored 10 colleges involved in Today's Students, Tomorrow's Teachers. The program provides minority high school students who are interested in becoming teachers with academic support, mentors, internships and help with college admissions. Through participating colleges, the program also offers 50 percent scholarships to the students in return for a pledge to teach locally for at least a year. "Quality minority teachers - that's a national need," he said. "We're going to need two million teachers over the next 10 years. They're going to have to be quality teachers who can teach in a diverse classroom using high technology ... These people were very perceptive to pick this up." Honored last night were Fordham University in the Bronx; the College of New Rochelle; Gordon College in Wenham, Mass.; Iona College in New Rochelle; Manhattanville College in Purchase; Marist College in Poughkeepsie; Marymount College in Tarrytown; Mercy College in Dobbs Ferry; Pace University in New York City and Pleasantville; and Texas College in Tyler, Texas.

    THE ROXBURY LATIN SCHOOL INDOOR ATHLETIC FACILITY + ATHLETIC IMPROVEMENTS SUPPLEMENTAL SUBMITTAL Article 80 | Small Project Review and Site Plan Approval Application Submitted by: The Trustees of The Roxbury Latin School June 19, 2015 19 June 2015 Mr. Brian Golden Director Boston Redevelopment Authority One City Hall Square Boston, MA 02201 RE: Supplemental Submission ‐ Request for Article 80, Small Project Review The Roxbury Latin School 101 St. Theresa Avenue Boston, MA 02132 Dear Mr. Golden, On behalf of the Trustees of the Roxbury Latin School, we are submitting a supplemental submission in regards to the Section 80‐E‐5, Small Project Review application filed April 27, 2015. Front the start, Roxbury Latin provided a comprehensive master plan illustrating all proposed improvements (including horizontal projects such as athletic fields), even those not typically subject to Small Project Review. This path was intended to signal a collaborative and transparent approach to the design review process, and to further that goal, the school has engaged in an equally comprehensive dialogue with residents. The enclosed documents represent the culmination of this significant design work and the numerous concessions offered by the school. When we heard concerns around drainage, we designed systems that will not only accommodate our proposal, but also improve existing conditions. When we heard concerns about proximity, we increased setbacks well beyond the requirements set forth by Article 56 (approximately 50 percent for the IAF, 500 percent for buffer associated with the proposed parking areas, and up to 200’ at the Quail St. tennis location). In fact, the location of the proposed facilities and the associated design comply with all uses and dimensional requirements set forth in Article 56.

Feb. 12th As always, this event is at the Ossining Library’s Magnificent Budarz Theatre and is FREE! The Program Starts at 6:30; seating begins at 6:15. ODDS is honored to welcome the Racial Justice Program of the American Civil Liberties Union as this month's screening sponsor. 20+ years ago, a woman in upstate New York reports an attempted rape by a young black man who cut his hand during the altercation. While looking for suspects, police contact officials at nearby SUNY Oneonta. A school administrator hands over names and residences of 125 black male students. Those students are subsequently tracked down and interrogated under a presumption of guilty until proven innocent. In Brothers of the Black List<http://www.brothersoftheblacklist.com/about.html>, director Sean Gallagher tracks this story of racism that became the longest litigated civil rights case in American history. An emotional story of social justice, this unsettling documentary serves as a cautionary tale of equal rights gone wrong and is relevant today more than ever.

  • An Open Letter on Behalf of Independent Schools of New England
    An Open Letter on Behalf of Independent Schools of New England, We, the heads of independent schools, comprising 176 schools in the New England region, stand in solidarity with our students and with the families of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. The heart of our nation has been broken yet again by another mass shooting at an American school. We offer our deepest condolences to the families and loved ones of those who died and are grieving for the loss of life that occurred. We join with our colleagues in public, private, charter, independent, and faith-based schools demanding meaningful action to keep our students safe from gun violence on campuses and beyond. Many of our students, graduates, and families have joined the effort to ensure that this issue stays at the forefront of the national dialogue. We are all inspired by the students who have raised their voices to demand change. As school leaders we give our voices to this call for action. We come together out of compassion, responsibility, and our commitment to educate our children free of fear and violence. As school leaders, we pledge to do all in our power to keep our students safe. We call upon all elected representatives - each member of Congress, the President, and all others in positions of power at the governmental and private-sector level – to take action in making schools less vulnerable to violence, including sensible regulation of fi rearms. We are adding our voices to this dialogue as a demonstration to our students of our own commitment to doing better, to making their world safer.

  • Head of School
    Boston, Massachusetts Head of School Introduction One of the nation’s leading independent schools, The Winsor School serves over 440 academically promising and motivated girls in grades 5 though 12 (Classes I-VIII). Located in the heart of Boston’s Longwood Medical and Academic area, the school’s impressive urban campus connects girls with the rich artistic, scientific, and cultural offerings of one of the country’s most robust cities. Students represent diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds and hail from more than 50 different communities in and around the Boston area, with 25% residing in the city of Boston. Winsor is a place where intelligence and learning are respected and girls are challenged to realize their full potential by being active participants in their own education. The school’s long and rich record of academic achievement sets it among the most impressive independent schools in the country. Of the 64 girls who graduated in 2014, 10 were National Merit Semifinalists and 26 received National Merit Letters of Commendation. Colleges with the most Winsor matriculations since 2011 include Harvard, Yale, MIT, Boston College, and the University of Pennsylvania. Winsor faculty ignite students’ interests and help them develop the knowledge and tools to discover their passions and to answer the question, “What kind of person do you want to be?” Girls quickly find that no subject is too complex, no feat too difficult, and no dream out of reach. Equally important, Winsor cultivates girls’ empathy for others, respect for themselves, sense of responsibility to their communities, and courage to be generous-minded women of action in a global society.
