Students are being given the opportunity to decide what will replace the current tiger painting on the home side of Sullivan Gym. According to Principal Bradesca ’88, “the gym is being painted in other areas so we are taking advantage of that to make an update.” Bradesca figured the best way to decide what to put up on the wall was to go straight to the students.
Closed to alumni and faculty, the survey will go out to current students only. “Obviously, we have to be consistent with how we display things – we can’t just put any old thing up there. So what I wanted to do was create a survey for all students to vote on all the different emblems we have,” Bradesca said.
“It could be ‘AMDG,’ it could be the wildcat, it could be the ‘I,’ it could be the school seal, it could be the school crest. All of those will be available for choices,” Bradesca said. “I would probably pick AMDG.”
There’s no set date for when the new painting will go up, but Bradesca admitted his goal was for it to be on the wall by the time students return from winter break.
Go to the link below to vote on the wall. You must be logged in to your student email to vote. The top 2 choices will go in a run-off next week. Voting for the first round ends Friday at 3. Only one vote per student.
After the first round of voting, the shield and Wildcat with I took the top 2 spots. For the runoff, a third option–to keep the current painting–has been added.
UPDATE: The students have voted at the Shield won. Details to come…
