Alumni Introduction Dear Graduates and Friends of Doane Academy, Doane Academy is an exciting place to be these days, with the return of perhaps the most revered tradition of Bishop Doane’s time – a commitment to “Change the World.” As we look toward the 175th anniversary of our founding, it is fitting that Doane continue to not only prepare students for college, but to make a positive impact in their lives both now and in the future. That was the promise of St. Mary’s Hall in 1837, and that is the promise of Doane Academy to this day! One of the ways that Doane Academy meets this promise is through continued relationships with the graduates and former students who have gone before. Whether it is through lending experience and expertise, regular financial support, coming to events, or some other active engagement with the school community, there can be no doubt that the Society of Graduates is one the pillars of Doane’s current success. One of the Society’s primary goals is to continue to improve communication. Please review our pages here on DoaneAcademy.org where you will read articles about our graduates, view old and new photographs and keep abreast of upcoming events. Open our e-newsletter to see what is currently happening at Doane and for those of you on Facebook, please “Like” the Society of Graduates page. Keep an eye out for our regular mail too – we mail out our Ivy Leaves twice a year, as well as invitations to Founder’s Day and other Society of Graduate events. I invite all of our graduates and former students to return, either for one of our events, or just for a casual visit. Come back, not only to reminisce, but also to meet our future fellow members of the Society of Graduates -- the current students of Doane Academy. While much has changed, so much of what is truly important has stayed the same. You will surely see yourselves and your friends reflected in the faces of our current students, but beware, their energy is contagious! Sincerely, Chancellor Van Sciver ‘88 President, Society of Graduates
