  • 2013 Retrospective FINAL
    A LOOK BACK AT THE McDONALD’S ALL AMERICAN® GAMES SUPERSTARS AND UNFORGETTABLE MEMORIES FROM GAMES PAST You’ve seen them on TV and at the movies, in the NBA, WNBA and college ranks – McDonald’s All American alumni are household names to basketball fans. But before they were winning Olympic gold medals, NBA, WNBA and NCAA championships, many of them received their first major national television exposure as high school students at the McDonald’s All American Games. Since the Games inception, more than 1,000 prep stars have been named McDonald’s All Americans and had the opportunity to show off their skills on a national stage before reaching the college or professional ranks. Most importantly, the Games raise funds for Ronald McDonald House Charities® (RMHC®) and its network of local Chapters. To date, the McDonald’s All American Games have raised more than $10 million for RMHC, helping to bring families together in their time of need. As we look forward to celebrating the 37th Anniversary of the McDonald’s All American Boys Game and the 13th Anniversary of the Girls Game on April 2, 2014 in Chicago, Ill., the following is a brief look back at highlights from the past 36 years of McDonald’s All American Games, including funds raised for RMHC: Chicago, Ill. 2013 For the third year in a row, the 2013 McDonald’s All American Games took place at Chicago’s United Center. The 2013 Games raised nearly $470,000 for Ronald McDonald House Charities and were played in front of a crowd of 15,818.

    ONE HUNDRED EIGHTIETH ANNUAL COMMENCEMENT Dear Friends: Welcome to Indiana University’s 2009 Commencement. Together, on this great day of celebration, we pause to honor the tremendous accomplishments of our graduates. This is their shining moment. Coming from across the state of Indiana, throughout the nation, and around the world, they have become a part of the fabric of excellence woven at Indiana University over the course of nearly two centuries. In subjects ranging from accounting to zoology, they have drawn on their intelligence, talents, and tenacity to achieve mastery and prepare for the challenges of tomorrow. We honor their achievements today and recognize the challenges they have already faced, and overcome, as they have pursued their dreams. This day has been years in the making: years of study and years of support. Our graduates have reached this wonderful day propelled by the love, encouragement, and faith of their families and friends. The strength of that support helps each of us achieve our highest aspirations and deserves our deepest gratitude. Today is as much a day to share that gratitude as to celebrate. Indiana University’s class of 2009 will always be a part of IU’s rich and living history. Having dedicated themselves to the pursuit of academic excellence, driven by curiosity and intellectual passion, our graduates are now poised on the cusp of ever greater accomplishments. We will remember and celebrate them always, wishing them the greatest success in the future. Most sincerely, Michael A. McRobbie President Glimpses of Commencements Past “The Commencement of 1833 was held in the “Society, through government, through “If someone were to ask me casually about life, I new chapel, the orchestra composed of two philanthropy, and through the sacrifices of would simply say, ‘Play it like you feel it, baby, flutes, & one of them cracked—imagine the individual families, has supported higher and live it up, kid.
