Chaminade’s 80th graduation exercises on June 5, 2011 bid farewell to the 433 members of the Class of 2011, the largest in our history. At left, Fr. James Williams ’87 presents the Chaminade Man Award to Eric Haslbauer. Dylan Scarpatto (right) presented the Valedictory ad-dress, while Ryan Brunetti (below) was class Salutatorian.

reshman Ian Miranda’s eyes widened as he walked within steps of the robotic submersible REMUS (Remote Environmental Monitoring Units), the device that helped scientists in their twenty-four-month quest to find the fuselage of Air France Flight

447 that crashed into the South Atlantic two years ago. Freshman Chris Johnston had a similar reaction as he and his classmates were treated to an up-close look at Alvin, one of the world’s first deep-ocean submergence vehicles, now being rebuilt and re-outfitted with state-of-the-art oceanographic research apparatus. The venerable submarine has already made over 4,400 dives, including its most illustrious mission – exploring the wreck-age of the RMS Titanic. During a “working lunch,” Ian, Chris, classmate Mike Black, and thirty-five other Chaminade freshmen listened intently to a lecture by Dr. Christo-pher Reddy, one of the lead scientists of a team that used underwater acoustics to detect and analyze subsurface oil plumes resulting from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill last year in the Gulf of Mexico. All of these activities – and more – were part of a high-powered and highly informative field trip for Bro. Benjamin Knapp’s freshman oceanog-raphy class to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI), located on the coast of Massachusetts, on a narrow spit of land between Buzzards Bay and Nantucket Sound. Woods Hole is the world’s largest private, nonprofit oceanographic research, engineering, and educational facility, specializing in both marine biology and marine geology. Students spent a half day touring the facility, which marine scientists

consider the holy grail of their field. The freshman Flyers observed samples of the earth’s core taken from the ocean floor, saw the mass spectrometer that WHOI’S scientists employ in the carbon-dating of marine fossils, and even walked through WHOI’s necropsy lab for marine-mammal autopsies. Coming as a bit of a surprise to any student who has ever visited his local fish market, WHOI’s necropsy lab has no stench whatsoever. Odor vacuums and a powerful ventilation system allow WHOI’s marine biologists to do their research for hours on end without experiencing any deleterious side effects. In addition to their half-day tour of the Woods Hole facilities, the students spent a half day aboard a boat trolling through Vineyard Sound. The students collected water samples from the surface and, with the help of a drag-net, samples of marine life from Vineyard Sound’s floor. Mr. Salvatore Trentacoste (CHS’s assistant principal and science-depart-ment chair), Bro. Karl Hornberger ’77, and Mr. Casey Giordano ’93 accom-panied Bro. Benjamin ’93 and his oceanography class on their trip to Woods Hole. The group left for Massachusetts on Thursday, May 19 and returned to Long Island on Friday, May 20. The trip itself represents the culmination of a year-long relationship between Chaminade and Woods Hole, all made possible through efforts of Chaminade alumnus Mr. Joseph Roxe ’54, who is involved with the Board at Woods Hole. This cooperative venture between Woods Hole and Chaminade is unique. Lectures at Chaminade given by visiting professors from Woods Hole and now this trip to the esteemed Massachusetts facility highlight the intellec-tual rigor of the freshman oceanography program, which is offered to a select few who test out of freshman earth science. As Bro. Benjamin remarked, “The trip to Woods Hole was a wonderful experience for all of us because it allowed us to witness firsthand the most cur-rent areas of oceanographic research. I think it’s safe to say that the trip made the oceanography course come to life for our students.” q

“It is for us an infinite honor to be like Him by being a living expression

of the life that He led when He was among men. We can have life only by Jesus Christ and in Jesus

Christ. Now it is through Mary that this life is communicated to us.”

Blessed William Joseph Chaminade

Graduates of the Class of 2011,

These words are boldly displayed on the tabernacle wall in the Chapel at Chaminade. I offer them to you as

a final reflection on your years at Chaminade and as a paradigm for your future as we celebrate and recognize your commencement today. When you entered Chaminade High School four years ago, you were introduced to the concept of the Chaminade Man, someone who “does the right thing at the right time because it is the right thing to do, regardless of who is watching.” For the past four years you have learned what is the right thing to do. You have been challenged to do the right thing. You have received guidance about when to do it. Yet, that is not the whole picture, is it? True, faculty, coaches, activity moderators, and staff have sought to educate your mind, heart, soul, and body; the whole man. But we have sought to do more than that. We hope to have instilled in you a desire to be a man who follows Jesus Christ. The Chaminade Man is one who imitates Jesus Christ. I invite you today and always to reflect on those words of Blessed William Joseph Chaminade: it is indeed “an infinite honor to be like

Principal’s Graduation Address

Bro. Joseph Bellizzi ’78

On June 17, 2011 the CHS faculty and staff honored four colleagues who retired this year; they are shown at left with Fr. James ’87 and Bro. Joseph ’78. From l.-r. are Mr. Nathaniel Russo-Alesi (23 years in the Foreign Language Department), Mr. Andrew Haber-man (34 years in the Math Department), Mrs. Ellen Donnelly (Guidance Secretary for 23 years) and Mr. Robert Huemmer (37 years in the Math Department).

Marianist Provincial Bro. Thomas Cleary ’81 is pic-tured at right (l.) as he congratulates (l.-r.) Bro. David Bruner (KMHS), Fr. Albert Bertoni (KMHS), and Bro. Robert Fachet on the occasion of the 50th Jubilee celebration of their profession of vows. The celebra-tion took place at Kellenberg Memorial H.S. on April 30, 2011

At right are special award winners of the Class of 2011; front row (l.-r.) Ryan Brunetti (Chaminade Academic Excellence Award, Salutatorian), Patrick Mc-Gonigle (Bro. Louis Faerber, S.M. Service Award), Daniel Haslbauer (Fr. Philip Eichner, S.M. Award), Eric Haslbauer (Chaminade Man Award, Nassau County Award, and Town of Hempstead Award), Patrick McBride (John R.

Him.” It is indeed an infinite privilege to be like Him. It is indeed an infinite responsibility to go out into the world and be like Him. In whatever you do or say, always strive to be “a living expression of the life that He led when He was among us.” Imitate the love of Jesus. Imitate the forgiveness and mercy of Jesus. Imitate the compassion of Jesus. While you may forget many lessons that you have been taught, let this be a lesson that you always remember: “Be like Him.” As you look back over your four years at Chaminade and reflect on all that you have learned, it is our hope that each one of you will say that you have learned how to be like Jesus, “to be like Him.” As graduates of a Marianist school, remember also the role that Mary plays in your life. Blessed William Joseph Chaminade reminds us that the life of Jesus Christ is communicated to us through Mary. We can learn so much from our Blessed Mother. Be true Sons of Mary, and she will show you how to be like her son. We are in the midst of a year-long celebration of the 250th Anniversary of the birth of our Founder, Blessed William Joseph Chaminade. As graduates of the school which bears his name, it is only fitting that we remind ourselves of his call to imitate Jesus Christ in all that we do and say. While our culture promotes many alternative measures of success, we know that the only true measure is the measure of a life led in the image and imitation of Jesus Christ. Over the past four years, we have often called on you to be leaders. But today, I ask something different. Be a follower. Be like Him. Follow Him. May God bless you as you seek to live your life in imitation of His Son Jesus Christ.

Good luck and God bless,

Bro. Joseph Dominick Bellizzi, S.M. ’78 Principal

Concluding Four Great Years

Besides the rigors of final classes and six days of comprehensive examinations, the Class of 2011 concluded the Senior year with a host of other activities. Beginning with the trip to Disneyworld, the class then enjoyed a final lunch with faculty members on the last day of class; they rejoiced as they received special T-shirts after the final comprehensive exam and then took a nighttime cruise around Manhattan. It all culminated in graduation on June 5, 2011. Congratulations to the Class of 2011!
