The founders of the new association were Russ Crawford (’72), Steven Malecha (’81), Ben Shakman (’90), Joseph Morrison (’79), David Brackman (’81), Steven Czerwinski (’82), and Jack Templeton (’87). The reestablishment of the house corporation was achieved through the help of these graduate brothers that were also assisted by graduate brother Tom O’Neal (’77). We thank them all and look forward on working hard with them in the future. We would like to mention that graduate brother J. Randall Cox (’88) is our Purple Legionnaire. The Purple Legionnaire is an ex-officio member of the House Corporation and does not vote as a director of the House Corporation, but provides valuable input and linkages with the Chapter and International. 3 FIJIs in Sports Baseball E.J. Roncone (’22) - Newcomer of the Year Andrew Ponce (’20) - Al Conference Kobe Shutter (’20) - Al Conference Dalton James (’19) - Al Conference The 2019 Prairie Fire Baseball season was full of ups and downs, but it is needless to say that none of those successes throughout the season would have occurred without members of the Gamma Deuteron Chapter. Freshman newcomer, E.J. Roncone (’22), won Midwest Conference Newcomer of the Year by posting a 1.92 ERA and striking out 43 batters throughout the season. Three Gamma Deuteron members also were named Midwest Conference South Division All-Conference Team. Those members were: Andrew Ponce (’20), Dalton James (’19), and Kobe Shutter (’20). Ponce was a key member of the pitching staff and posted a 2.01 ERA and struck out 27 batters. James led the team with a .359 batting average and also led the team in stolen bases with 19. Shutter led the team in homers with 3 and runs with 24. Among new members of the Gamma Deuteron chapter, seven of them are also on the baseball team. This gave the chapter a total of 20 Knox FIJI baseball players for this year. 4 Golf Duncan Wheeler (’19) - Individual Midwest Conference Winner Noah Manzo (’21) - Newcomer of the Year The 2019 Prairie Fire Golf season was a success for the team and members of the Gamma Deuteron Chapter. Brothers George Gilligan (’22), Duncan Wheeler (’19), Jack Culbertson (’22), Noah Manzo (’21) and Jason White (’21) were all members of the team. Wheeler won an individual Midwest All Conference title by having the lowest score three-day score in Midwest Conference history. Wheeler also won 1st place at the Blackburn invite, while Gilligan placed 5th. Wheeler also took home 2nd at the Loras Invite. Manzo won Midwest Conference Newcomer of the Year as well as being All Conference by placing 6th at the conference meet. Four members of the Gamma Deuteron chapter represented the Prairie Fire at the Midwest Conference meet this year. Expect great things for the future for the Gamma Deuterons members of the Knox golf team. FIJI Athletes Kobe Shutter (’20) - Al Conference In Football, tight end Kobe Shutter (’20) won Midwest Conference All Conference honors during the 2018 Season. Shutter caught four touchdowns for 288 yards. In Soccer, Jake Totty (’22) and Santiago Medina (’21) helped the Prairie Fire Soccer Team to win the 2018 Midwest Conference Championship. In Tennis, Oscar Sanchez (’22) helped out the Knox men’s tennis team finish their season with 2 wins for the first time in almost 2 years. Sanchez won 3 singles matches and 1 doubles match on his first collegiate season. In Basketball, Sungmin Jin (’22) finished his first collegiate season with 18 points, 7 rebounds, and 3 steals. Jin converted six of eight shots from the floor and made three of six free throws. 5 FIJI Involvement Active Bystanders The new executive board participated in the Active Bystander event during the Take Back the Night week. The event focused on proactive ways in keeping a safe environment for all people. During this event the executive board engaged in activities and scenarios in which they were taught how to respond and handle them. With this event the executive board now looks on better ways to host registered events and act as active bystanders on campus. Lincoln-Douglas Debates Documentary Graduate brother Eric Newnham (’90) was back at Knox working on a project; his patriotic film was Pro- Lincoln, Pro-Knox, Pro-Illinois, and Pro- Galesburg. Eric worked with Professor Doug Wilson, Historian Owen Muelder, Professor Fred Hord, and Knox President Teresa Amott to create his film. This film was written and directed by a GD Fiji and was a great opportunity to show what Fijis do at Knox College before and after graduation. Take Back the Night All members of the Gamma Deuteron chapter went out to stand in solidarity with survivors of sexual assault at the Take Back the Night event on campus. Brothers took part in a vigil for the victims and also partook in a march around campus to spread awareness. Brothers volunteered at the fair before the vigil took place. Volunteers strove to educate members of the community about the issue of sexual assault and interpersonal violence. Brothers experienced with the community; a powerful night as we took a stand against sexual assault. 6 This Year’s Pledge Class (From back row on lef to font row on right) This year’s pledge class was a total of 12, all pledges were freshmen and all pledges became initiates.

  • Libraries, Technology, and the Route to Relevance Facilities Master
    Volume 5, Issue 2 Get the latest industry news and trends: ​ ​ ​ Libraries, Technology, And The Route To Relevance By better aligning their services to community needs, they can target inequities and support economic opportunity Cameron Chavira Like the footings beneath the shelves they line, books have traditionally formed the foundation of the services that public libraries offer their communities. However, with the shift from print to digital publishing, libraries face a battle in maintaining their status as bastions for learning, community engagement, workforce development and citizenship. This challenge has not gone unnoticed by local-government budget-writers, who are increasingly likely to cut funding for libraries in favor of more "necessary" departments and programs. Nevertheless, library professionals remain hopeful that technology will help moderate inequities in areas such as access to information, educational achievement and economic opportunity. But to successfully leverage technology to this effect, we must make sure that those who make funding decisions see libraries not as stuffy stacks of yellowing pages but as modern community learning centers. This can be achieved through thoughtful assessment and partnership. Here's how: First, libraries need to identify service gaps by evaluating the needs of their users against the services they provide. Technology can be a great help here, given the variety of data-driven mapping tools now available to help shape precise community profiles. These tools, typically employed for purposes of planning and zoning, offer libraries a detailed dissection of a neighborhood's demographics, including education level, family composition and transit information. Once libraries have this profile defined, they can assess how their services align with the community's needs.

  • George Mason Cheerleading
    Fall 2012 George Mason Cheerleading Dear Parents and Students, Your son/daughter has expressed an interest in becoming a member of the George Mason High School cheerleading squad for the fall 2012 season. It is very important that you and your student share the responsibility. Cheerleading is a sport that requires extensive time and dedication and all members are expected to commit fully. If together you feel it is too much to ask, encourage your student not to try out. However, if you feel the commitment can be made, please support and encourage them in every way ☺ If your student is selected for the GMHS cheerleading squad, his/her work schedules, doctor appointments, vacations, etc., MUST be coordinated so that they do NOT interfere with our scheduled events. It is vital that your student attend all practices, camps, games, etc. Cheerleading is a team activity and the absence of a team member does not only affect your student, but the team as a whole. Please consider this before you allow you son/daughter to try out for the team. My goal as a coach is to encourage the following qualities in every cheerleader: good sportsmanship, good manners, mature and responsible behavior, cooperative attitude and an awareness of fulfilling one’s obligations. I hold VERY HIGH EXPECTATIONS of our cheerleaders and expect them to be model students, as they are being chosen to represent George Mason High School. You and the student will need to read through this packet and complete the following for clinics/tryouts: • VHSL Physical • Online Application at www.surveymonkey.com/s/GMCheerFall12 • Tryout Permission Slip • Impact Testing Permission Slip o Due to the summer schedule, all participants will complete the Impact Test the week of clinics/tryouts.

  • Fccps High School Renaming Committee Final Report
    FCCPS HIGH SCHOOL RENAMING COMMITTEE FINAL REPORT Submitted by: The FCCPS High School Renaming Committee Jamie Argento Rodriguez, Chair April 9, 2021 INTRODUCTION The FCCPS High School Renaming Committee firmly holds that the renaming of the high school must be considered as a starting point along the necessary path for change in the City of Falls Church. If accomplished in isolation, changing the name of the high school is an empty gesture. As the School Board considers the names that the committee recommends in this report, we urge and request that the School Board, FCCPS, and the Fall Church City community build on the momentum forged by the renaming effort to create positive outcomes for the students, faculty, residents, and visitors for whom the school is built to serve. The high school name change, and the corresponding elementary school name change, present an opportunity to educate us about the history of Falls Church City, to shine a light on its African-American community and heritage, and to steer us on a course towards inclusion and equity. The committee respectfully submits this report in furtherance of these goals. PROCESS OVERVIEW Committee membership The FCCPS High School Renaming Committee was selected by Superintendent Dr. Peter Noonan in January 2021. The committee’s membership includes 26 members representing a diverse set of experiences. The committee consists of high school students, FCCPS faculty in multiple roles, FCCPS alumni, parents, and community members. The committee’s members are diverse in gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, and other important factors that represent the broader Falls Church City community.
