    Loomis Chaffee Log SEPTEMBER 26, 2016 Issue 101, No. 1 thelclog.org M I N D OVER MATTER Graphic by Anh Nguyen ’17 How should we navigate this year’s vague all-school theme, “MIND OVER MATTER?” very year, the all-school theme encourages students to stretch the “Loomis bubble” and think critically about day to day oc- currences — from the environmental implications of fl ipping a light switch to the media we consume on Twitter. This year, the schoolE theme was fi rst alluded to in our puzzling all-school read, The Little Prince. During the fi rst weeks of school, the administration has presented the theme in a narrow sense, raising eyebrows. Is it really that effective to have the junior class do yoga in the quad?

This is one of the reasons that we offer 36 competitive teams in 15 different sports. In my opinion, Tdeciding to participate on a competitive team is one of the best choices a young person can make. As the Athletic Director, it is my goal to uphold the traditions and core values which my predecessors have worked so hard to instill over the last several decades. Sportsmanship, dedication, commitment, team work, and the idea of sacrificing one’s own ego for the good of the whole are the hallmarks of our program. I hope that our student-athletes embrace THE AVON OLD FARMS WEB SITE these qualities and make them part of their persona as they journey from All athletics information is posted on our web site, boyhood to manhood. www.avonoldfarms.com, and is updated frequently.
