In Their Own Words

Br. Michael Quirk, FSC became the president of De La Salle Institute on January 1, 1989. In addi- tion, he also spent time in the classroom, teaching business education and history classes periodi- cally from 1983-2000. Br. Michael also coached frosh-soph soccer from 1983-88 and frosh-soph wrestling from 1983-99.

He currently serves on the City of Chicago Board of Ethics, Lewis University's Board, the College of Santa Fe's Board, and the Civitas Schools Board, as well as serving as the chairman of the Christian Brothers Finance Committee and the St. Mary's Press Lasallian Educational Fund.

Br. Michael, who earned both his B.A. and M.B.A from Lewis University, is currently a Doctoral candidate at DePaul University.

Here in Br. Michael's words is what De La Salle Institute means to him:

8DE LA SALLE MAGAZINE September 2005 the office for advancement

y the time you read this current issue of De La Salle Magazine, students will have been in session for several weeks. The start of a new school year is always a momentous occasion - for students, their families, and certainly for faculty, staff BBand administration. For De La Salle, this marks the school's 117th year as a provider of a high-quality, excellent educa- tion, along with the added value of Catholic ethics and mores. It's impressive when you begin to think about the school's longevi- ty and the thousands of lives it has helped shape.

De La Salle is often referred to as "The Rock" and appropriately so since it has been, and is, an institution of strength and stabili- ty. We should be thankful for schools like De La Salle that have remained so dedicated to the service of youth and so mission- driven to prepare and graduate students of competence and character, prepared to engage in different cultures, and who make real positive differences in society. Our society, today, needs these institutions.

For the past two years, I have participated in the Lasallian Leadership Institute along with my fellow colleague, the principal of our Lourdes Hall Campus, Diane Brown. The Leadership Institute is a comprehensive formation and education program that studies the origins of the Brothers of the Christian Schools and the Lasallian Mission. This three-year formative program is lived with others engaged in Lasallian educational ministries.

While our studies focus on the history of the Brothers, Lasallian formation, and spiritual leadership, it's important to note that "Lasallian" is a term that reflects the current reality of larger numbers of cooperators or associates. My friends, together and by association, this includes all of us - faculty, staff, families, students, alumni, and friends. Your personal involvement with De La Salle helps continue a legacy of care and concern that has been and is a hall- mark of the Brothers and all that is Lasallian. So often at events like D-Final, the annual Golf Outing, and reunion banquets, alumni ask me how they can help advance De La Salle. There are many ways to help, but three always remain true.

First, I want you to be proud of your high school and its heritage - and to express that pride freely by acknowledging your affiliation, recommending prospective students, and encouraging friends to get involved. Second, participate! More than 7,000 alumni and friends live in the Chicagoland area. We would love to see campus events crowded with alumni and families.

And finally, give your best gift annually. Last year, 13% of our graduates supported their alma mater. When you consider that we communicate annual- ly with nearly 12,000 graduates and friends, it's quite evident that few are doing the job of many. We cannot risk thinking that others will take care of things. The fact is, everyone needs to step up and accept responsibility for the future of their school. The wonderful students and things that came from De La Salle Institute over the past 116 years didn't happen by themselves. It took financial gifts and personal involvement from those who cared.

And so the year begins. Help us raise the bar significantly. Attend sporting events and other special events. Support the annual giving program. Take pride in our students and their achievements. Talk them up. Our students, their families, and alumni are our best recruiting tools. Let everyone with school- age children know that De La Salle is a great school, that it's been around for 117 years and that it will be around for another one hundred as the place where great futures begin.

For all you do in keeping De La Salle alive in your heart and among your priorities, you have my deepest gratitude. I hope to see you around campus or hear from you during the year.

Sincerely,

Anthony C. Chimera '83 Vice President for Institutional Advancement
