Readers of this article have the copyright owner’s permission to reproduce it for educational, not-for- profit purposes, if the author and publisher are acknowledged in the copy. Lasallian Values in Higher Education Luke Salm, FSC, STD1 The topic assigned to these reflections concerns Lasallian values in higher education. To anyone familiar with the history of the Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools from its seventeenth century origins to its situation in the world today, there are many reasons why it is timely to take a fresh look at the importance of the [De La Salle] Christian Brothers and their educational tradition in our institutions of higher learning. This discussion comes at a time when the Brothers in our schools at every level, but especially in the tertiary institutions, are no longer as predominant among the faculty and administrators as they once were. In fact, it no longer seems possible to think of many of our schools as Brothers’ schools; it is more accurate perhaps to call them Lasallian schools. For that reason, in our colleges and universities in particular, there are many among the faculty, students, and staff who seem to feel that the contribution of the Brothers and their Lasallian teaching tradition is an institutional asset that ought not to be lost. One guarantee that the tradition will be handed on is the continued presence of the Brothers in the university and their individual and corporate commitment to it.

  • Title: the Distribution of an Illustrated Timeline Wall Chart and Teacher's Guide of 20Fh Century Physics
    REPORT NSF GRANT #PHY-98143318 Title: The Distribution of an Illustrated Timeline Wall Chart and Teacher’s Guide of 20fhCentury Physics DOE Patent Clearance Granted December 26,2000 Principal Investigator, Brian Schwartz, The American Physical Society 1 Physics Ellipse College Park, MD 20740 301-209-3223 [email protected] BACKGROUND The American Physi a1 Society s part of its centennial celebration in March of 1999 decided to develop a timeline wall chart on the history of 20thcentury physics. This resulted in eleven consecutive posters, which when mounted side by side, create a %foot mural. The timeline exhibits and describes the millstones of physics in images and words. The timeline functions as a chronology, a work of art, a permanent open textbook, and a gigantic photo album covering a hundred years in the life of the community of physicists and the existence of the American Physical Society . Each of the eleven posters begins with a brief essay that places a major scientific achievement of the decade in its historical context. Large portraits of the essays’ subjects include youthful photographs of Marie Curie, Albert Einstein, and Richard Feynman among others, to help put a face on science. Below the essays, a total of over 130 individual discoveries and inventions, explained in dated text boxes with accompanying images, form the backbone of the timeline. For ease of comprehension, this wealth of material is organized into five color- coded story lines the stretch horizontally across the hundred years of the 20th century. The five story lines are: Cosmic Scale, relate the story of astrophysics and cosmology; Human Scale, refers to the physics of the more familiar distances from the global to the microscopic; Atomic Scale, focuses on the submicroscopic This report was prepared as an account of work sponsored by an agency of the United States Government.

  • La Salle Academy 2017-2018 Annual U P D A
    LA SALLE ACADEMY 2017-2018 ANNUA L UPDATE OUR MISSION The mission of La Salle Academy, a rigorous college-preparatory high school, is to educate students of diverse cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds with special outreach to those most in need. We provide a nurturing environment, which fosters spiritual, moral, intellectual, emotional and physical growth in the Roman Catholic tradition and the Lasallian spirit, as embodied in St. John Baptist de La Salle. We create experiences of community within the school and encourage each student to develop their gifts and talents for their own growth, as well as engage in the caring service of others, through its academic, extra-curricular and spiritual programs. LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD Dear Members of the La Salle Community, As we begin another school year, I wanted to take the opportunity to update the La Salle Community on a few of the things happening at La Salle. At the close of fiscal 2018, we find ourselves in one of the best financial positions the school has ever been in. We have just concluded our fourth consecutive year of significant growth in fund raising with nearly $2.7M and our projections are to exceed that amount again this year. I would like to congratulate our administration and faculty led by Dr. Catherine Guerriero. Over the past year, we have expanded to the third floor in our current building and have added a band room, a Chapel, a special education classroom and a library. In addition, we now have more flagship programs than ever before that wrap around the core academic work of La Salle: La Salle in the City (action-based learning trips), La Salle @2:30 (after-school clubs), La Salle Works (internships), La Salle Partners (several collegiate partnerships including The Cooper Union, NYU, La Salle University and St.

She was drawn to the order’s charism by observing that the sisters were “women of the heart, that their way of loving just imbued everything that they did.” The sense of a child’s belonging in a classroom and school is affirmed by being taught “from the heart,” Sister Kathryn said. Whatever subject is be- ing discussed “can touch their heart and can make a difference in their life. And so for me, teaching these students is also like, in some ways, teaching their parents,” teaching the students’ future children, “teaching their grandchildren.” And that could include her no-non- Apostles of the Sacred Heart of Jesus Blessed sense example of gently reprimanding a mischievous student who playfully soared a paper airplane through the By Beatification of Foundress classroom, as one youngster did when CNY visited Sister Kathryn’s fifth- By CHRISTIE L.

Readers of this article have the copyright owner’s permission to reproduce it for educational, not-for-profit purposes, if the author and publisher are acknowledged in the copy. Religion at Manhattan College and the Lasallian Vision Luke Salm, FSC2 To begin with, we had better be clear about the meaning of that elusive word Lasallian. Sometimes it is stretched to mean almost anything, which is another way of saying it means nothing. That term makes sense only if it derives from and refers to the seventeenth century French priest whose name is John Baptist de La Salle, Founder of the Brothers of the Christian Schools. De La Salle was a man of vision, not that he had visions, but that he could see. And he not only saw things with his own two eyes, but increasingly throughout his difficult and turbulent life he saw things with the eyes of God, a faith vision. He lived constantly in the presence of God and trusted implicitly in the providence of God. He encouraged the early Brothers to cultivate this faith vision, the spirit of faith as he called it, by frequently recalling the presence of God as we still do today. In his Rule he tells the Brothers that the spirit of faith leads them not to look on anything except with the eyes of God and not to do anything except with God in view.

While the announcements presented in the following pages apply as of the date of publication, the College reserves the right to make such changes as circumstances require. IMPORTANT INFORMATION This Catalogue contains the general information necessary for those seeking admission into the programs offered by the Graduate Division of Manhattan College. It presents the curricular requirements for the various Master degrees. Applicants should be aware that the courses listed under each program are not offered every year but are offered in a cycle over a five-year period, the time allotted for the completion of all requirements for the degree. Because the majority of students matriculating for the degree are attending part-time, it is impossible to indicate the academic session when each course is expected to be offered. However, a separate printed sched- ule is published approximately two months in advance of every session (fall, spring, summer) detailing which courses are to be offered, the days, times, rooms and professors. The College reserves the right to withdraw or modify any of the courses, costs or programs listed in this cat- alogue, to cancel any course or program for which it deems registration insufficient, usually less than ten regis- trants, to make any other changes which it considers necessary or desirable. All students must provide evidence of immunization against measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) before attending classes.

  • 2012-13, the Program Now Sponsors 20 Competitive Intercollegiate Teams – Including Eight Teams That Have Been Established Or Re-Established Since 2007 Alone
    A staple in the New York region and an emerging program on the nationalQuick stage, the Facts Manhattanville and College Athletic Contents Department continues to bolster its reputation as a program on the rise in all areas: athletic achievement, academic success and overall participation. More than 325 Valiant student-athletes (nearly 20 percent of the student body) took part in intercollegiate athletics during the 2011-12 school year showcasing the continued and rapid growth of athletics at Manhattanville. With women’s golf beginning play as a varsity sport in 2012-13, the program now sponsors 20 competitive intercollegiate teams – including eight teams that have been established or re-established since 2007 alone. And teams at Manhattanville do not just compete, they win. Three teams earned conference regular-season or tournament championships in 2011-12 and two Valiant squads (men’s soccer and men’s golf) made an appearance in the NCAA Tournament. Fifteen of 21 Valiant squads earned berths in their respective conference championships last year, including the third straight title and seventh in 11 seasons for men’s golf. In addition, the men’s hockey, men’s golf and women’s hockey teams all received national rankings over the course of the year. On an individual level, many Valiant student-athletes were honored in 2011-12 as well, led by All-America selections Eros Olazabal (men’s soccer) and Dan Fiorito (baseball). Manhattanville also boasted three Freedom Conference Players of the Year and two Freedom Rookies of the Year to go with 47 combined All-Conference honorees. In recent years, at least 35 former Valiants have gone on to play their sport professionally either domestically or overseas as well.
