Peter [MC1950 RIP]http://blogs.mprnews.org/oncampus/2013/07/former-saint-marys-president-dies/Former Saint Mary’s president dies Alex Friedrich July 25, 2013, 1:22 PM 0 This (lightly edited) announcement from the university: Saint Mary’s 10th president, Brother Peter Clifford, dies Clifford (SMU) Brother Peter Clifford, FSC, the 10th president of Saint Mary’s University, died Tuesday at De La Salle Hall in Lincroft, N.J. A dedicated educational visionary and financial steward, Brother Peter served as president of Saint Mary’s from 1976 to 1984, and is credited for bringing fiscal security to the college. Brother Peter also fostered close relationships between Saint Mary’s and the city of Winona by being an active member of the community. During his presidency, he served on the boards of both the Winona Chamber of Commerce and Norwest Bank. Additionally, he initiated the first graduate course offerings in the Twin Cities and laid the financial groundwork for the Performance Center and the ice arena on the Winona campus. Brother Peter was born in the Bronx in New York City on Feb. 17, 1925. He graduated from St. Jerome’s School in the Bronx in 1939 and entered the Junior Novitiate of the Christian Brothers in Barrytown, N.Y. He entered to the Brothers Novitiate in 1943, made his first vows in 1944, and made his final vows in 1950. Brother Peter studied history at Catholic University in Washington, D.C., received his B.A. degree in Education from Manhattan College in 1950, and an M.A. degree in History from Fordham University in 1957. In 1968, he received a CAS degree in Educational Administration from Harvard University. In 1970, he received an Ed.D. degree in Educational Administration, also from Harvard. Brother Peter’s ministry career was varied. He taught at grammar schools, served as a missionary in the Philippines, acted as the academic dean at De La Salle College in Manila, served as an administrator at a variety of high schools, worked for the Catholic Schools office in Brooklyn, N.Y., and acted as the executive secretary for secondary schools at the National Catholic Education Association. Brother Peter’s ministry in higher education began as an academic dean at St. John’s University in Jamaica, Queen, before coming to Saint Mary’s. After the conclusion of his work at Saint Mary’s, Brother Peter served as Provincial of the LINE District of the Brothers of the Christian Schools for three years and for two years as an Assistant in Higher Education for the U.S. Catholic Conference in Washington, D.C. His last college connection was as President of St. Mary’s College in Leavenworth, Kan., from 1989 to 1994. Brother Peter then became Director of Finance for the LINE District of the Brothers of the Christian Schools. He moved back to Winona in 2000 and worked as a vice president for the Metanoia Group, a consulting enterprise at Saint Mary’s University, until 2002. He then moved back to Rhode Island where he became Assistant to the President of Ocean Tides, a residential center for delinquents, until his illness this year. A wake for Brother Peter will be held at the Christian Brothers Center in Narragansett, R.I., on Thursday, July 25, and Friday, July 26, 2013. A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated at Christian Brothers Center on Friday, July 26, 2013 at 11 a.m. Brother William Mann, FSC, President, will represent Saint Mary’s University at the wake, Mass, and burial. “Brother Peter will be remembered for his unwavering faith, his strong leadership and for establishing a solid financial foundation at Saint Mary’s, enabling us to significantly expand our reach and educational reputation,” Brother William said. “Those who worked alongside Brother Peter will also remember his kindness, generosity and enduring spirit. He will be missed.” # - # - # Clifford, Br. Peter [MC1950 RIP] # - # - # - # - # 2013-Jul-28 @ 18:34 |

2013-Jul-29MFOUND: Alma Mater influences local educationhttp://www.jamaicaobserver.com/news/New-leadership-for-St-Vincent-Strambi-High_14773139New leadership for St Vincent Strambi High BY ALICIA SUTHERLAND Observer staff reporter sutherlanda@jamaicaobserver.com Monday, July 29, 2013 *** begin quote *** He said that come September, Jamaica will for the first time benefit from "Lasallian" teaching with the coming of two Americans to the St Vincent Strambi High School. They are Brother Augustine Nicoletti, who is to be the new principal and Brother James Wallace, an administrator. According to Hamilton, their coming is "timely" as the De La Salle teaching style emphasises practical or vocational areas which is a focus of the Ministry of Education. "They emphasise skills training which is what the country needs," Hamilton said. On a recent visit to Jamaica, Nicoletti and Wallace — who are both on secondment from the Manhattan College in New York — told the Jamaica Observer of plans to make an impact during their two-year stint. "In any setting, you can always [make improvements]. We want to improve the spiritual dimension of the faith community, include some theatre, drama down the road, more opportunities for vocational education; we want to infuse life skills. We want to really teach their (children's) minds and touch their hearts," Nicoletti said. Wallace said that the "aim is to get all students to do well". In doing his research, Nicoletti said that he discovered that Catholics are only about three per cent of the Jamaican population. However, he is undeterred. "I don't base my life on statistics. [Our work looks beyond] nationality, culture, race," he said. The two elderly men said that the commitment that they have to the work that they do will ensure that they do it for as long as they can. "We love what we do despite tough days," Nicoletti said. He said that one of the main tenets of being a Brother is that they live in a community with other Brothers. During their stay in Jamaica they will live on the school's compound, which Nicoletti said will enable them to be available to the students all the time even outside of regular school hours. Their reimbursement will be a stipend from the church, Hamilton said. Hamilton in his report at the school's recent graduation outlined developments at the institution that the De La Salle Christian Brothers can build on. *** end quote *** [JR: Did anyone else have to look up "secondment"?

You'll have a great "longitudinal" perspective that most of us don't have.

Let it be noted that the former Rose Navarino officially made her debut into the world on Dec. 29, 1913, making her six months' shy of her 100th birthday. And word has reached this desk that family members and friends traveled to San Rafael, Calif., June 29 to commemorate Rose's milestone. {Extraneous Deleted} For a number of years the "birthday girl" worked in the laundry of the former Staten Island Hospital in Tompkinsville so that her sons, Frank and John, could attend Manhattan College. However, in 1993, Rose chose to relocate to San Rafael, where she's been a popular and beloved resident of Nazareth House — and where copies of the Advance appear so that she can keep abreast of the myriad events on her beloved Island. Known to all for her quick wit and infectious laughter, the illustrious senior travels the corridors with the assistance of a walker, which carries a sign that reads: "Native Staten Islander ... Out of my way!" *** end quote *** # - # - # - # - # 2013-Jul-31 @ 18:45 |

His sister Ann Marie was a classmate of mine at St Barnabas and she married another classmate, Ed Donegan who is a member of the Class of 1954 at Manhattan. May He Rest In Peace. Mike McEneney, Mike (MC1953) [JR: Thanks, Mike. Much appreciated. I am sorry for all our loss. Sounds like Alma mater was an "interesting place" in your days. I never met anyone's sister. Maybe they didn't trust me? I was always a perfect gentleman!] # - # - # - # - # 2013-Aug-03 @ 18:08 |

2013-Aug-03ENDNOTE: Bust Phony Michigan Homeless Vethttp://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/07/19/rudy-fake-homeless-vet_n_3623991.html?show_comment_id=270840704#comment_270840704'Producer Joe' Uses 'Liar' Sign To Bust Phony Michigan Homeless Vet, Then Does Something Amazing (VIDEO) The Huffington Post | By Eleanor Goldberg Posted: 07/19/2013 1:28 pm EDT | Updated: 07/19/2013 3:19 pm EDT *** begin quote *** But when WGRD caught wind of the scandal, the radio producers there weren’t satisfied with the simple PSA the news outlet had aired. They decided to take matters into their own hands and force the con artist out of his corner. Producer Joe joined Rudy at his busy intersection with a cardboard sign that read “LIAR” in big blocky red and yellow letters with an arrow pointing in the vet’s direction. *** end quote *** Sorry, but defrauding the public is NOT "free speech". While it might not be the BIGGEST crime -- that's left for the District of Corruption, the various state capitals, and anywhere politicians meet with crony capitalists -- it is FRAUD. The only possible LEGITIMATE functions of government is to protect The People from force. Fraud is a form of force. Theft by deception. This particular fraud makes us a cynical nation about private charity. All charity -- to be moral, effective, and efficient -- must be private. # - # - # - # - # |
