More about Hudson Taylor and Athlete Ally
As an athlete in high school and college, Hudson Taylor often observed the use of homophobic language and demeaning humor, especially in sports. Soon after enrolling at the
University of Maryland, he befriended LGBT students in his theatre classes and became
increasingly aware of the pain caused by homophobic behavior.
Taylor, who is not gay, felt it was imperative he confront the reality that sports often
marginalize LGBT athletes, coaches, and others through systemic homophobia and
transphobia. He decided to take action as a straight ally to change athletic culture
for the better.
To stand in solidarity with the LGBT community, Taylor wore an LGBT equality sticker
from the Human Rights Campaign on his wrestling headgear. Though he encountered
criticism from his peers, he received positive attention from the media and thousands
of e-mails from parents and closeted athletes expressing thanks and sharing their own
experiences of homophobia and transphobia in sports. This experience inspired Taylor
to launch Athlete Ally.
Athlete Ally (www.athleteally.org) is a nonprofit organization that provides public
awareness campaigns, educational programming, and tools and resources to foster
inclusive sports communities. It mobilizes Ambassadors in collegiate, professional, and
Olympic sports who work to foster “allyship” in their athletic environments. Athlete
Ally is a close partner of the NBA and NBPA on player development and LGBT inclusion. The organization also partners with the NFL Players Association on player awareness and sensitivity on LBGT issues.
Today, Taylor is a wrestling coach and prominent straight ally and activist in support of
LGBT rights. He is ranked among the top five pinners in NCAA wrestling history and
holds several Hall of Fame records. He spreads the message of equality and inclusion
through his roles at Athlete Ally, his public speaking, and his blog on the Huffington
Post website.

AED-CPR Training
If you know how to use an automated external defibrillator
(AED) and perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), you
can significantly increase the chances of survival for victims of
sudden cardiac arrest. The use of an AED may restore a normal
heart rhythm, and CPR can keep oxygenated blood flowing to
the brain and other vital organs.

department will present Kayden Guest Artists, Imani Winds.
One of North
America’s
premier wind
quintets, the

has taken a
unique path,
carving out
a distinct
presence in
the classical music world with its dynamic playing, culturally
poignant programming, adventurous collaborations, and inspirational outreach programs.
Based in New York, the group—whose commitment to education
runs deep—participates in residencies throughout the United
States, giving master classes to thousands of students per year.
In addition, in the summer of 2010, the ensemble launched its
annual Chamber Music Festival; set on the Juilliard campus,
the program brings together young instrumentalists from
across North America and beyond for an intense week of music
exploration.
Free and open to the public, this concert is made possible
through the generosity of the Bernard & Mildred Kayden Fund,
established by the Kayden Family to bring distinguished artists
to Phillips Academy. For more information, please contact the
music department at [email protected] or ext. 4260.
The Summer Opportunities Fair will be held from noon to
3 p.m. in the Smith Center. Sponsored by the Parents of Students
of Phillips Academy (PSPA), this fair gives middle school and
high school students and their families the chance to meet with
representatives from more than 100 local, national, and international summer programs focusing on academics, language study,
community service, camps, sports, arts, research, internships,
outdoor adventure, and international travel. Additional information is available on the Summer Opportunities Fair website,
www.andover.edu/summerops/fair.htm.
The Gap Year Fair will be held from 3 to 5 p.m. in Kemper
Auditorium. Sponsored by USA Gap Year Programs, this fair
invites high school students and their parents to meet with
representatives from nearly 40 reputable gap year organizations
that focus on education, service, and personal growth. In addition, featured speaker Jane Sarouhan, a counselor at the Center
for Interim Programs in Northampton, Mass., will discuss the
gap year experience as well as the application process and the
logistics of deferring college for a year. Each year approximately
10 to 15 Phillips Academy graduates take advantage of a gap
year experience and then attend their deferred college choices.
Additional information about the fair is available on the USA
Gap Year Fairs website, http://usagapyearfairs.org/fair/andoverma/. For more information about gap years in general, or to read

Harvard Professor Eric Mazur
to Discuss His Teaching Approach
at Feb. 2 Faculty Meeting
Harvard University professor Eric Mazur thought he was a good
teacher until he discovered that his students were just memorizing information rather than learning to understand the material.
Who was to blame? The students? The material?
From 6:45 to 7:45 p.m. in
Kemper Auditorium, during
the faculty meeting on Monday,
February 2, Eric Mazur will
give a talk titled “Confessions
of a Converted Lecturer” in
which he will explain how
he determined that the culprit was neither the students
nor the material, but rather
his approach to teaching. He
also will discuss how he has
adjusted his approach and how
it has improved his students’
performance significantly.
The Science Division is hosting Mazur and the Sterns Fund is
sponsoring his visit. For more information, please contact the
Dean of Studies office at ext. 4030.
More on Eric Mazur
Eric Mazur is the Balkanski Professor of Physics and Applied
Physics at Harvard University and Area Dean of Applied Physics. An internationally recognized scientist and researcher, he
leads a vigorous research program in optical physics and supervises one of the largest research groups in the Physics Department at Harvard.
In addition to his work in optical physics, Mazur is interested in
education, science policy, outreach, and the public perception of
science. He believes that better science education for all—not just
science majors—is vital for continued scientific progress. To this
end, he devotes part of his research group’s effort to education
research and finding verifiable ways to improve science education. In 1990 he began developing Peer Instruction, a method for
teaching large lecture classes interactively. He also is a founder
of Learning Catalytics, a cloud-based technology that enables
instructors to engage students with authentic formative assessments in real time, and rich data analytics to drive student interactions. And in 2012 he launched Applied Physics 50 at Harvard, a
project-based learning course that covers a year of introductory,
calculus-based physics.

—Carlos Hoyt
Chair, Wellness Week Committee
Freedom from Chemical Dependency—Required for Juniors
All in Good Fun—Required for Seniors
Cultural Competency 101: Identity, Inclusion, and Allyship—
Required for Juniors
Choices for Lowers, Uppers, and Seniors
FCD works with schools to provide students with the knowledge,
understanding, and skills they need to make intelligent, healthy
choices about alcohol and other drug use. This workshop, run
by FCD staff, will combine up-to-date information with real-life
experiences.
Rosetta Lee, a national figure in diversity training for schools and
nonprofits, will teach participants how they coauthor their and
their peers’ identities, how the cycles of oppression and bullying
reinforce stereotypes, and how to break these cycles.
Tell Me Something I Don’t Know—Required for Seniors
Weeks into the fall semester of 1997, MIT freshman Scott Krueger
died from complications caused by alcohol poisoning. To raise
awareness of alcohol abuse in fraternities and sororities, the film
Tell Me Something I Don’t Know was created. Attorney Scott
Mikulecky, who represented the MIT fraternity, will review the
events that preceded Krueger’s death and explore the loss suffered by his family, the legal actions taken against members of the
organization, and the implications for decision making at college.
I Am Dirt—Required for Lowers
Performed by John Morello, “I Am Dirt” features vignettes on the
themes of alcohol and drug abuse, identity, and self-esteem.
About Date Rape—Required for Uppers
The SEX SIGNALS improvisational troupe presents scenarios and
skits that demonstrate how social pressures, unrealistic fantasies,
power inequity, and false preconceptions of the other sex can lead
to sexual assault. The scenes enable audiences to recognize the
true nature of rape and to place full responsibility with the rapist.
Community Discussion of SEX SIGNALS and Related Issues—
Required for Uppers
Faculty will facilitate small groups of students in same- and
mixed-sex formats as the students reflect and exchange perspectives on the content of the SEX SIGNALS program and how it
applies to life at PA and beyond.
Healthy Minds—Required for Lowers
This program, run by Isham and Graham House staff, will provide crucial fundamental knowledge about mental health (mood,
attention, anxiety, eating, self-harm, and stress) and will include
PA’s annual depression and suicide screening.
A well-respected college, praised for safe and happy campus life,
is suddenly exposed for hidden Greek-life hazing and sexual
assault scandals. Developed by Talene Monahan, All in Good Fun
uses the words of students, faculty, and alumni of Dartmouth College to shed light on the paradox of school spirit and outrage such
scandals expose.
• The following four workshops will be provided by FCD staff.

Educational Initiatives/OIT Notes
Canvas Tips and Tricks:
Using the Discussions Feature
Tip #1: Discussions are great for posting your own prompts for
students to reply to. Did you know that students also can create
and respond to Discussion threads? The default setting for Discussions gives students this option. Some teachers have utilized
this feature by encouraging students to use the Discussions to
raise and resolve their own questions about class materials or
explore ideas more deeply outside of class. More information on
creating Discussions is available at https://guides.instructure.
com/m/4212/l/40160-how-do-i-start-a-new-discussion.
Tip #2: Did you know that you can ensure your students post a
Discussion contribution before seeing what others have written? When creating a new Discussion, check the “Users must
post before seeing replies” box. Students will be prevented from
seeing their classmates’ contributions until after posting their
own. More information is available at http://guides.instructure.
com/m/4152/l/50008.
Build Your Spring Course in Canvas
When: Monday, March 23, 10 a.m.–noon
Where: Polk-Lillard Center, Main Lab
Come and get your spring term course up and running in
Canvas. Learn how to upload your syllabus and post basic
resources such as readings or assignments so that you can begin
using Canvas this spring. We recommend attending one of the
Canvas for Beginners lunches during the week of February 2
for a preview of the platform (see below). Please direct questions
to David Mallick at [email protected].
Canvas Learning Opportunities
For Beginners
We invite you to attend any one of the following three meetings
during which we will present different possibilities for organizing a basic course in Canvas. These meetings, which will be held
over lunch in Ada’s Room in Paresky Commons, are appropriate
for those who have not yet used Canvas. RSVP by Wednesday,
January 28, to David Mallick at [email protected] to reserve
a spot in one of the following meetings:
• Monday, February 2, 4th period (11:15 a.m.–noon)
• Tuesday, February 3, 6th period (1:05–1:50 p.m.)
• Friday, February 6, 5th period (12:10–12:55 p.m.)
For New and Experienced Users
Are you interested in learning how to perform a specific task
within Canvas? Or perhaps you heard of an interesting capability
but haven’t had time to investigate it. In either case, please consider taking the survey at http://goo.gl/forms/lvTylnsbqv, where
you can select from a list of possible topics of interest or add your
own suggestion for a Canvas Show-and-Do (like a Show-andTell, only the demonstrations are followed immediately by the
opportunity to practice the task that was demonstrated). Based
on your responses, we hope to organize a showcase of brief
presentations (less than 10 minutes each) about specific topics or
tasks within Canvas to help you charge up your courses and take
advantage of new functionality.
Let us know what you want to learn, as well as whether you are
willing to participate as a presenter on specific topics. The date,
time, and location for the presentations are to be determined.
Anytime, Anywhere Opportunities for Both New and
Experienced Users
• Instructor Guide (text): http://guides.instructure.
com/m/4152.
• Instructor Guide (video): http://guides.instructure.
com/m/4210.
• Lynda.com course, “Up and Running with Canvas,” which
includes short videos with transcripts about key Canvas
features. Access Lynda.com from the Community tab within
PAnet and enter “Up and Running with Canvas” in the
search bar.
BlackBoard/PAnet Timeline
Although BlackBoard’s academic course function will be retired
this summer to make way for Canvas, the other functions of
BlackBoard will remain intact through the winter of 2016. This
means PAnet will continue to house Campus News, Organizations, and the information repositories and links that are housed
under tabs such as Community, Academic Resources, Faculty,
and Students.
As part of the iMAX project to reimagine administrative systems,
OIT is engaged in the process of determining how these other
communication and information needs of the community that
currently are housed within PAnet can be met by other systems
and processes. Faculty and staff will have the opportunity to
share their needs and ideas with OIT through the remainder of
this academic year. Stay tuned for specific information about
these opportunities.
We hope your 2015 is off to a great start!

From the OWHL
Poetry Reading Tonight, Jan. 23
Tonight the English department is sponsoring a poetry reading at 7 p.m. in the Freeman Room by former PA Writer in Residence
Jeffrey Harrison. Harrison is the author of
five full-length books of poetry, including his
latest, Into Daylight. In addition, he is the 2014
recipient of the prestigious Dorset Prize for
poetry. All members of the PA community are
welcome to attend.
A Cure for the Winter Doldrums
Suffering from the winter doldrums? If so, a day at the museum
might be just the tonic you need. The OWHL can help your
family enjoy a day at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New
York and the Museum of Science, Boston.
Thanks to a generous endowed donation, we annually receive
two passes at the Sustaining membership level to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Each pass conveys free admission to the Met
and to The Cloisters museum and gardens for the bearer and up
to four guests. In addition, the pass will get you into the Members Dining Room and the Balcony Lounge, and it will give you
a 10 percent discount in the gift shop. Not planning to visit New
York? No problem. The best thing about the passes is that under
a reciprocal arrangement, you also can use them at the Museum
of Fine Arts, Boston, as well as at 13 other excellent museums.
The Museum of Science is a local treasure. Its more than 700
interactive exhibits, 100 live animals, Mugar Omni Theater,
and Charles Hayden Planetarium
offer something of interest to all
age groups, and its location on the
Charles River makes the trip worth it
just for the views. At current prices,
the admission fee for a family of
four, including two children between
the ages of 3 and 11, would be $86. As a service to the PA community, the OWHL has purchased a block of passes that we are
happy to make available to faculty and staff families. Stop by the
Circulation Desk for details.
Google Translate: A Great Travel Companion
If you are traveling to a country where you don’t know the
language and you haven’t explored Google Translate lately, you
should give it a look. This intriguing free tool is very easy to use
and is now available in 90 languages. There is a mobile app and
an offline mode, so the claim that “it is like having a translator in
your pocket” isn’t far from the truth. The tool allows you to input
text by speaking it, taking a picture of it, or typing it (including
cut and paste). In the latter case, you don’t even need to know
what language the text is in, as Google Translate can be set to recognize languages. As an example, I cut and pasted a paragraph
of Chinese characters, and Google Translate “read” the Chinese
to me. Then I indicated that I wanted it to be translated into
English, Spanish, Arabic, Slovenian, and Ukranian. With dozens
of languages to choose from, it is hard to pick just one.
The tool doesn’t provide a “perfect” translation. But it can help
you ask directions or order food at a restaurant. And it is being
constantly improved through crowdsourcing. Bilingual and
multilingual speakers can participate by making on-the-spot corrections to the translations, by matching words to their translations, and by rating the quality of the translations. Becoming part
of the Google Translate community might be an excellent non sibi
project for our advanced language learners.
Приходите посмотреть на нас в библиотеке. (In case you
are curious and you do not speak Russian, you can use Google
Translate to find out what that means!)
Save the Date: Puppet Show Sunday, Feb. 22
On Sunday, February 22, at 1 p.m.
in the Freeman Room, CactusHead
Puppets (http://cactusheadpuppets.
blogspot.com) will perform their
very silly rendition of Little Red
Riding Hood. The show is open to PA
students, families, and children of all
ages, but it is targeted toward those
age 3 to 11.
DPLA Strategic Plan
The Digital Public Library of America (http://dp.la) has been
around for less than two years, but during that time it has
grown to include more than 8.4 million items in more than 400
languages from libraries, archives, and museums in all 50 states
and around the world. In order to ensure that the DPLA capitalizes on this phenomenal growth, the DPLA board has released a
strategic plan to guide the organization through 2017. The plan
emphasizes the core values of the DPLA: “maximal openness to
our shared cultural heritage, a strong public spirit, an emphasis
on collective action and collaboration across many institutions
and individuals, and the free, democratic access to knowledge
that public libraries are known for.”
The top priorities identified in the plan include completing the
service hub network and balancing the holdings across content
types, topics, and geographic region. There are additional priorities relating to the technical infrastructure, and to the creation of
strategies to promote the use of DPLA content in grades K–12 as
well as higher education. A final ambitious priority is to achieve
financial sustainability by the conclusion of the plan in 2017.
Given how far the DPLA has come in less than two years, the
OWHL staff is very confident in the ability of our friends at the
DPLA to achieve these goals.

Employment and Benefits News
Fingerprinting Reminder
Check the “Sno” Line for Workday Updates
As previously announced, in January 2013 the state of Massachusetts enacted a new national fingerprinting law. In order to
ensure compliance with this new law, Phillips Academy requires
fingerprint-based national criminal background checks for every
employee, as well as for any contractor or volunteer who may
have direct unmonitored contact with students.
In the event of inclement weather, employees are expected to
check the “Sno” line, 978-749-4766 (4SNO), before heading to
work for possible updates to the workday. E-mails and Campus
News announcements also will be posted for events that occur
during the workday.
The law provides a staggered timeline for implementation, by
last name:
A–D: October 2014–March 2015
E–K: April–August 2015
L–P: August–December 2015
Q–Z: January–May 2016
More information is available at www.l1enrollment.com/
state/?st=ma.
Employees in the A–D group who have not yet been fingerprinted should have received e-mailed instructions from human
resources. If you are part of this group, have not been fingerprinted, and did not receive an e-mail, please contact Barbara
Sweeney at ext. 4100 or [email protected] to discuss.
Important note: If you have already been fingerprinted as part
of the 2014 Summer Session programs, or at one of the days
MorphoTrust was on site in September and December, or at an
off-site location, you do not need to be fingerprinted again. No
other previous fingerprinting done other than for employment at
Phillips Academy is considered transferrable or acceptable.
There will be no additional on-site opportunities to be
fingerprinted.
The Spotlight Is on You!
Dr. Mary T. Kantor, Catholic Chaplain
In addition to her work at Cochran Chapel, Mary has been an
adjunct faculty member at Merrimack College in the Department
of Religious and Theological Studies for the past three years, and
in 2014 was named an Associate to the College’s Center for the
Study of Jewish-Christian-Muslim Relations, which “educates for
religious, ethical, and cultural literacy [and] … seeks to counter
destructive prejudice and increase mutual understanding among
people of diverse beliefs.” She will be a part of the Center’s interfaith community service project “Feed Your Neighbor” during
the United Nations Interfaith Harmony Week in February.
Congratulations, Mary!
