issues. His mediums include pastel, acrylic paints, watercolors, inks, computer graphics,
collage, encaustic, digital photography, and stenciling. He employs repetition to extend
the confines of the format.
McLean’s artistic journeys over the years have taken him from photographic realism (He
studied film at the City College of New York.) to Abstract Expressionism. At Hunter College,
he studied with leaders in the Abstract Expressionist movement, including Robert Mother-
well, Richard Lippold, William Baziotes, and the printmaker, Gabor Peterdi. He was in-
tensely impressed by Allan Kaprow, who sought to integrate art and life through his
‘Happenings’ performance art; and pop art sculptor George Segal. Both artists worked and
lived near McLean’s solar-oriented home and World War II Quonset studio in New Bruns-
wick, NJ.
Born in Ireland, McLean grew up in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. After a brief stint in the U. S.
Navy, he attended The Heatherly School of Art in London, England; and the American
School of Art in New York. He earned his bachelor’s degree at Keane College, NJ, and was
awarded a teaching fellowship at the University of Chicago, where he was enrolled in the
doctoral program.
Concerned by the data that reveals that less than one percent of the U. S. population
currently shows a serious interest in the development or progress of contemporary paint-
ing, McLean finds little reassurance in what he sees lying ahead:
“The digital revolution is not nearly finished. It promises a seemingly endless supply of
gadgets permitting entertainment, communication and information. The great majority of
Americans are satisfied with realist, decorative and nostalgic visuals which do not test
the viewer. Meanwhile, aesthetic problems and debate are obscured by sports, celebrity
and the shallow entertainments flooding mass culture.”
McLean retired from Rowan University’s Art Department in 2002, where he had taught
for more than 35 years.
The Villanova University Art Gallery is open weekdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. For week-
end and extended hours, and information, contact the Art Gallery at 610-519-4612. Select-
ed works for the McLean exhibit may be previewed on the gallery’s website at www.art-

“The American Musical Theater” Program

D r. Warren Hoffman will speak about “The American Musical Theater” at Temple
Sholom in Broomall, Thursday evening, March 18, at 7:30 p.m. He will describe how
over the last 100 years it has developed from a frivolous art form to one that deals with
major themes, particularly issues of race, sexual expression and individualism.
Dr. Hoffman is now Artistic Director for the Gershman “Y.” He formerly was Literary
Manager and Dramaturg for the Philadelphia Theatre Company now housed at the new
Suzanne Roberts Theater in Philadelphia. Prior to that he was Associate Artistic Director
of the Jewish Repertory Theatre in New York and a reviewer for TalkinBroadway.com. He
holds a Ph.D. in American Literature from the University of California/Santa Cruz and has
written and lectured on a number of topics including Jewish literature and American
drama.
The March 18 program is being presented by the Hilltoppers, the senior citizen group
at Temple Sholom, and is open to the public. Following the discussion refreshments will
be served. A $2 donation is requested from non-members of Hilltoppers. The building,
located at 55 N. Church Lane, is handicapped accessible. For directions and information
call Temple Sholom in Broomall at 610-356-5165.

Rev. Alexander G. Houston, MDiv, Coordinator of Seminary
Relations & Recruitment with Jeffery Chambliss, owner of the
house that one of the groups worked on, in New Orleans.
F ive Palmer Theological Seminary students devoted a
week of their recent semester break to helping victims
of Hurricane Katrina, who, five years later, are still in the
process of rebuilding their homes and their lives. Students
Marquita Bell, Bob Gross, Genikwa Williams, Enoh Francis,
and Wendy Simcoe worked to refurbish houses in the New
Orleans’ Lower 9th Ward, which was one of the city’s hard-
est hit areas and has been one of the slowest to recover.
The trip was sponsored by the National Ministries division
of the Valley Forge-based American Baptist Churches.
Among the chores assigned to the PTS group were paint-
ing, removing water-damaged wood, and replacing old sid-
ing with new. PTS admissions officer Alexander Houston,
who accompanied the students, spent the whole week work-
ing on the house of a man who’s been living in a FEMA
trailer for the past five years, since Katrina. “You could
see areas where a lot has been done,” said Houston. “But
you could also see that there’s a lot more to do.”
The Palmer contingent stayed at Camp Restore, a place
for volunteer workers sponsored by the Lutheran Church.
Said Houston, “Our students were glad for the opportunity
to put their faith and their learning into action. Seminary
is not just about academic knowledge. It’s about service,
too.”
According to Houston, the people among whom the group
worked showed a special sensitivity for victims of the
earthquake in Haiti: “No one can feel more for the people
of Haiti than the people of New Orleans,” said Houston,
adding that, though the road has been long and the end is
far from sight, “people still cling to their faith that God will
see them through.”

Devon Prep Basketball Player Makes School History

Senior Point Guard Jeff Hughes after scoring his 1000th point.
D evon Prep’s senior point guard Jeffrey Hughes of New-
town Square has been pretty busy recently making
school history on the basketball court.
A few weeks ago he set a school record for career three
pointers with 131 and Tuesday (Feb. 16) night he became

Admissions), Pat Roberts (Executive Director), Dr. Louisa Moats, Dr. Grace Ashton (Director of Psychology), Kathy Johnson
(Head of Lower School), Jackie Galbally (Lower School faculty), Kris McGuirk (Director of Education), Carrie Shankweiler
(Head of Upper School).
“T eaching Reading IS Rocket Science.” This quote is still
as relevant today as it was over 10 years ago when Dr.
Louisa Moats wrote an article regarding the complexity of
the reading process and the responsibility of insuring that
all educators step up to the challenge of preparing to teach
this most important academic skill for children.
The Academy In Manayunk (AIM) sent eight members of its fac-
ulty and staff to the 2010 LETRS Summit hosted by Louisa Moats.
This three-day conference convened the top researchers and
trainers in the field of reading to present the latest findings to the
question of how children learn to read, and the best research-
based strategies for teaching reading, spelling and writing.
LETRS (Language Essentials for Teachers of Reading and
Spelling) is a professional development program developed by
insight and knowledge to reading instruction, provide answers
that instructional materials cannot, and allow teachers to
reach, through explicit, scientifically-based methods, students
The research on reading continues to come out of our univer-
sities at a tremendous pace. The challenge is how to speed the

points. He is the first Devon Prep player since 1996 to reach
1000.
He was also named the Bicentennial Athletic League’s
(BAL) Independence Division 2009-10 Boys Basketball
Player of the Year for the second year in a row. In addition,
he was named to the BAL Independence Division All League
Boys Basketball First Team along with fellow teammate Jun-
ior Duncan Becker. Senior Matt Purcell received an honor-
able mention.
In 2009 Hughes was named Tournament MVP in the
Springfield Montco Holiday Tournament and he was also
named to the 2009 All Main Line Boys Basketball First Team.
Hughes has averaged 20.2 points per game and 8 assists.
According to Coach Bill Frio, he has had a great career as
the TIDE’s wingman. “Not only can he shoot the three, but
he can drive to the basket really well,” said Frio. “And he
doesn’t just score. The best thing about his game is that
he passes the ball. When you have a point guard who can
pass and score it makes for a great team.”
Hughes’ hot shooting has helped the TIDE record a 16-4
season overall and 9-2 in the league.
Scoring the 1000th point not only made school history,
but it made Hughes himself, pretty happy as well. “Every-
one that comes in the gym sees the 1000th point banner
hanging up,” he said. “To be up there is going to be really
cool.”
In addition to playing basketball for the past four years,
Hughes was co-captain of the JV Golf Team for two years,
serves as member of the Devon Prep Key Club, and is on
the Honor Roll.
Devon Prep is a private, Catholic, college preparatory
school conducted by the Piarist Fathers for young men in
grades six through 12. The school, which enrolls nearly
300 students, is located on a 20-acre campus on North
Valley Forge Road on Philadelphia’s Main Line in Devon.

process of research to practice in our schools. The mission of
the Academy In Manayunk is to serve as both an implementa-
tion site and training organization to transfer this knowledge to
educators in the Greater Philadelphia region. For information
on upcoming LETRS and other professional development offer-
ings, visit the AIM website at www.aimpa.org. Dr. Louisa Moats
will also be the keynote speaker at the PA Branch of the Inter-
national Dyslexia Association Conference hosted by the
Academy In Manayunk on October 8, 2010.
“Using LETRS as a common language for the entire school pro-
vides a framework that allows teachers, regardless of subject, to
make connections in literacy development across the curricu-
lum,” stated Carrie Shankweiler, Head of AIM Upper School.
The Academy In Manayunk (AIM), which opened its doors at
169 Conarroe Street in 2006 as a resource for students, families
and educators in the field of learning disabilities, expanded to a
second building in Manayunk in February 2009 at 119 Rector
Street. In addition to the Grades 1-5 Lower School, the Rector
Street building is now the Upper School of the Academy—cur-
rently grades 6-10 but will grow one grade a year until it has a
complete high school through 12th grade. The Academy
In Manayunk is modeled after The Lab School of Washington®
and its approach is to take the latest research in teaching
children with learning disabilities such as dyslexia and put it
into practice. After just three years, AIM’s enrollment has
more than tripled—now at 120 students. For information call
