Thank You Br. Thomas, Br. Bob, Mrs. Loo, & Sr. Susan!<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

\"Br.<\/a><\/p>\n

Everyone at Molloy extends their sincerest thanks and best wishes to several members of our administration, faculty and staff who have moved on from Molloy as of June 2015. Earlier this year it was announced that Br. Thomas Schady<\/strong>, Molloy\u2019s Principal since 2009, had been selected by the new US Marist Provincial, Br. Patrick McNamara<\/strong>, to serve as the new Director of Marist Education. \u201cWorking at Molloy has been a most rewarding experience. The message and mission of the Marist Brothers is alive and well here,\u201d said Br. Thomas. \u201cMolloy has the best students of any school I\u2019ve been associated with. They are generous with their time, spirited, ambitious, and have a wonderful sense of \"Br.<\/a>humor. This comes from the guidance and direction of their teachers, coaches, counselors, and my fellow administrators.\u201d Asked what his proudest accomplishments as Principal were, Br. Thomas was quick to answer. \u201cThe introduction of a one-to-one computing program was a key moment in Molloy\u2019s history. I am also proud of the inclusion of the Director of Student Activities position, which has helped us to prioritize our students’ school spirit.\u201d Looking ahead, Br. Thomas looks forward to remaining engaged with the Molloy community. \u201cThe new Provincial office will be based in Forest Hills at Our Lady of Mercy, so we will be in Molloy\u2019s backyard. That said, I am looking forward to supporting my Marist administrative team and assisting their vision of new beginnings for the province. I plan to make myself available to Molloy as a resource to help however my expertise is most needed.\u201d (Pictured: Br.

Br. Bob Andrews<\/strong>, a social studies teacher and track coach at Molloy since 1975, retired from teaching this June. He will continue, however, to work as a coach \u2013 a passion he does not plan to give up for a long time. Elsewhere, Sr. Susan Dean also retired from teaching in June after having taught religion at Molloy for the past 9 years. \u201cIt has been a joy and privilege to minister at Molloy. I can honestly say I have experienced the Marist Charism uniquely expressed in each faculty member and student. This is a wonderful professional and educational environment to be in,\u201d said Sr. Susan. Lastly, Mrs. Christine Loo, a college guidance counselor and SMILE counselor for the past 7 years, announced she will move on to work as the Director of College Counseling at The Stony Brook School. \u201c<\/em>I learned so much at Molloy. I was blessed to work with wonderful students and a dedicated faculty. The faculty\u2019s care and desire to see each student learn and grow has definitely rubbed off on me. Thanks to my colleagues who were true examples of what it means to be a teacher in every sense of that word.\u201d Thank you Br. Thomas, Br. Bob, Sr. Susan, and Mrs. Loo for your outstanding service to the Molloy community!<\/p>\n

Law \/ Finance Event Connects Stanner Professionals<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

\"Stanners<\/a>Thanks to the generosity of Matt T. McLaughlin, Esq. ’87<\/strong> and Venable LLP<\/strong>, Molloy’s Law and Finance Alumni Networking Event was a complete success. With over 70 alumni and friends in attendance, including seasoned veterans, younger professionals and college students, the event offered a unique opportunity for our community to connect and learn from each other. Alumni enjoyed food and beverages provided by Venable LLP as well as thoughts from guest speaker Michael R. Manley, Esq<\/strong>., a partner at the company. Manley has significant private sector experience as a general counsel with major investment firms and operating companies. He has dealt with both the law and finance sides of his business, making him the perfect guest speaker.

\"L-R:<\/a>“It is wonderful to see in the last several years how the Stanner community is continuing to grow and flourish from the halls on Manton Street to Wall Street,” said Alumni Development Director Craig Katinas ’93<\/strong>. “There is an underlying theme of Stanners wishing to help one another personally and professionally. It was really heartwarming to see the college volunteers having business cards handed to them by alumni in high management positions. I hope that this is the start of something bigger to come for them, and I encourage other younger alumni to consider attending events like this in the future.”<\/p>\n

Thank you to Matt McLaughlin, Venable LLP, and our Lawyers and Finance Network Committees for their insights and ongoing support, and thank you to our alumni and friends in attendance for supporting this event.<\/p>\n
