The Annual Report
Letter from the Alumni
Association President
To say your Alumni Association has been busy this past year would be a crowning
understatement. It is hard to believe that we just celebrated our school’s 54tg Birthday
with cupcakes for the entire school. The students also joined us in singing “Happy
Birthday” to our Alma Mater at each lunch period. This time last year birthday
celebrations were hardly at the forefront of any Archdiocesan high school. But last
February, we were able to celebrate not only the saving of four of our sister schools,
but also the change of organizational structure of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia.
The Faith in the Future Foundation ushers in a new era of growth and stability for bedrock Catholic high schools throughout
the Philadelphia area. Our school is excited about being a part of the future of Catholic schools in Philadelphia.
The Alumni Association year also saw us form a successful Scholarship Committee and distribute our annual scholarships
to the children of our alumni. Last Spring, we held a very successful Mentor Day in which 40 alums returned to speak
to current McDevitt students about the career path that McDevitt helped them to achieve. In March, we had a fantastic
Spring Fling at the school that brought a night of dinner and dancing for nearly 150 of our alumni. In April, we honored
three more alumni by conferring upon them our school’s greatest honor-- induction into the Hall of Fame for Bishop
McDevitt High School. In May, the Association inducted 178 new members from the Class of 2012, and your Association
was proudly present at both the Baccalaureate Mass and graduation at Arcadia University for this exceptional class. In
October, we hosted one of the best annual golf outings in years which helped to raise money for Alumni Association events
throughout the year, as well as our scholarship program for the children of McDevitt alumni now attending our school. The
legacy lives on in a big way on Royal Avenue. And in November we held our annual Memorial Mass remembering those
among our alumni who left this world much too soon.
However, the biggest achievement of the year by our alumni is to give us our new President, Steve Finley, from the Class of
1969. In just five short months, he has already begun to steer our school on a course that keeps a sharp eye on the future, but
also bring back many of the great McDevitt successes of the past to ensure our school is the first choice of 8th Grade students
throughout the area. The vibe inside the building is an exciting atmosphere of success and spirit that only a graduate from
the decade of the 60’s can bring, and that many of us can remember with soul warming fondness.
While the future at McDevitt could not look brighter, also know that securing our future is the role of every alum. Our
students attending McDevitt need your help. That means come back to McDevitt and be a mentor. That means come back
to McDevitt and volunteer your time and talents. That means come back and represent your class on the Alumni Board.
You will agree that each McDevitt graduate is unique. Wherever you go, you will meet a fellow alum, and instantly feel a
kinship to that person. That is legacy, and for the legacy to continue in that unique way, you need to contribute our school’s
greatest asset: You. If you want to help at McDevitt, call me at 215.901.9333, and I will be glad to help you come back to
your future.

My Seoul
By Claire Meaney ‘13
When I was little, I was a momma’s girl. I stayed
home, I helped with chores, I talked for hours, all with my
mom. Never did I think that I would grow a set of huge
wings and fly off to South Korea this past summer. While
I’d always dreamed of traveling, I never really thought I
would do it, at least, not without my family. This summer,
however, I was one of fifty American students chosen
for the National Security Language Initiative for Youth
program funded by the U.S. Department of State to study
in Seoul, South Korea. The application took hours and the
wait for results was painfully long, but when I found out I
was picked from over a thousand semi-finalists alone, I was
stunned.
Through the program and its international
associates, I was placed with a loving host family. My father
and two sisters were all fluent in Korean, Chinese, and
English, but my host mother knew only Korean. Our broken
conversations and moments of understanding are some of
my most cherished memories, each day having given us
little blessings in disguise. While there, I studied Korean at
one of South Korea’s top colleges: Sogang University. There,
we were sorted into classes and learned Korean intensively
for six weeks. The classes spanned from 1:00pm to 5:00pm
everyday excluding weekends, leaving the rest of our time
to discover Seoul for ourselves.
4
We were helped along the way by the staff members of the
program as well as our own support groups of three or four people.
Each group had a supporter, a Korean college student who spent
Tuesday and Thursday mornings with us to help teach us more
Korean as well as experience Korean culture at historical places. My
own group was just three people; myself, my friend Megan, and our
supporter Dongchan. We explored Seoul together and grew very close.
I’ve also found some of my greatest friends in Korean students I met
while in Seoul. We hung out often after we American students would
finish school, meeting around the university in Sinchon or in other
populated areas of the city like Gangnam or Hongdae. We would walk
for hours together just talking, half in Korean half in English, about
everything and anything. They were our best tour guides and friends.
Other American students from the program are some of my closest
friends as well. It’s strange thinking that now my best friends live in
Nevada, Texas, and Saudi Arabia and I can’t just see them in class or
to walk with them by the Cheonggyecheon, a stream that became one
of our favorite places to talk.
Many of the staff members told us that culture shock could
be bad, but reverse culture shock is worse. They were right. It’s been
difficult adjusting back into my routine here in America, but I don’t
regret the struggle it is. My experience in South Korea has made me
so much stronger and more confident that I’m ready to take on this,
my senior year at McDevitt. It’s not going to be easy, but I’m glad to
be back and taking on the world. Soon, I’ll be applying to universities
and hoping for scholarships, but I’ll also be wishing for something
else: another trip to South Korea. Hopefully, with a little hard work
and dedication, I can find my way back to Seoul for another year of
experiencing the rich culture I’ve fallen in love with.
My Country
By Gabe Dwyer ‘13
Bancroft Hall United State Naval Academy
James and Gabe Dwyer - Herndon Monument
United States Naval Academy
Cadet Honor Code United State Military Academy
During the beginning of this summer, I had the opportunity to spend a week at two of the finest institutions in the
world, The United States Naval Academy and The United States Military Academy at West Point. I attended their Summer
Seminars. The seminars are an opportunity for a candidate to experience academy life, and an opportunity for the academies
to assess the candidate.
From June 2 to June 7, I slept, swam, ate, and ran on the very same facilities utilized by the Navy Midshipmen during
the academic year. Each day consisted of four classes that I chose prior to my arrival in Annapolis. The eight classes that
I took were martial arts, mathematics, ship design, physics, chemistry, ship simulation, damage control, and systems and
weapons. Day 5 was military day; a day of intense activities beginning with a morning swim starting around 7am. Other
activities throughout the day included water PT in the Severn River, running the E-course (endurance course), and classic log
PT. The day finished with a replica I-Day (Induction Day). Overall the experience at the Naval Academy was great.
I returned home for a day to take an exam at McDevitt, and off to West Point the next day. From June 9 to June 15,
I walked the same grounds and halls as the Cadets from West Point that include Douglas MacArthur, Ulysses S. Grant, and
Robert E. Lee. The Seminar at West Point was very similar to that of the Naval Academy. Each day was high speed and action
packed. There I took one major class each day. These classes included; Arabic, Mathematics, and Systems Engineering. Day
6 at West Point was our military day. Activities included running the confidence course, the leadership course, fighting in
the martial arts pit, running the speed course and learning about combat engineering. The experience at West Point was
definitely one I will remember for the rest of my life.
The two experiences had their similarities and differences. For example, The Naval Academy is in the heart of the
capital of Maryland, while West Point takes its historical strategic position high in the mountains of New York on the Hudson
River. At each seminar, candidates took the CFA or Candidate Fitness Assessment and slept and ate in the same facilities as
students attending the academies. It was an extremely fast paced and intense way to start off the summer, and I would do it
all over again if I could. I am honored to have been given the opportunity to attend both of these prestigious seminars, and
hope to attend one of this institutions in the Fall.

Keys to Success
Written By Ellen Dooley
Republished with Permission
from Immaculata Magazine
Fall 2012
McDevitt Alum Christopher DiCamillo ‘09 was the featured
story in Immaulata Magazine for the Fall 2012 Edition.
If you ask Christopher DiCamillo to name
his favorite performance piece, he pauses.
It isn’t an easy question, but DiCamillo
is accustomed to searching his mind and
heart for answers. His response, thoughtful
and poignant, reflects the level of artistic
sensibility and sophistication fostered by
Immaculata’s music program.
“A few pieces are close to me,”
he said, “but one has stayed with
me. The Chopin Etude in C minor,
Opus 25, No. 12, the ‘Ocean Etude.’
I remember during a difficult time,
after being awake all night, I was on
back campus watching the sunrise
while listening to that piece on my
iPod, and it just hit home for me.
The dissonance, the complexity...
that Etude changed my life. I carry it
with me wherever I go. It grows with
me. As I change, it changes with me.”
DiCamillo, a senior who will
graduate in 2013 with a B.A. in music
and an emphasis in performance, is
no stranger to change, or dissonance,
or complexity. His decision to pursue
music was influenced in large part
by his high school’s vice principal
of academic affairs, Mr. Achuff. As
a Diocesan Scholar, DiCamillo took
some college music courses as a
high school senior. “Mr. Achuff was
very excited about my taking music
classes, which shocked me. Here was
a history teacher and administrator
encouraging the arts, and I thought,
‘If he’s supporting this, there must
be value here.’”
When DiCamillo decided to
apply to Immaculata, having been
introduced to the school a couple of
8
years earlier when he participated in
a piano competition, Achuff wrote
his letter of recommendation. “I
was accepted to IU very shortly after
that, “ said DiCamillo. And not too
long after that, Achuff passed away.
“That letter was one of the last
things he did for me,” said DiCamillo.
“He was such a great man, and one
of his last acts on earth was to get
me into this school. There must be a
reason I’m here.”
DiCamillo entered Immaculata
planning to become a music teacher
and, though he enjoyed his classes
and did well, he discovered during
the required field work that being
in control of a classroom presented
some unanticipated challenges.
“The kids were great and the
teachers were great, but I learned
that the classroom wasn’t quite the
right fit for me.”
The decision to switch to
performance was one DiCamillo
made after careful deliberation, and
with the counsel of his professors
and parents. “I feel the Bachelor
of Arts degree fits me well. I can
develop as a musician, as well
as develop in other areas of my
life. Immaculata’s performance
concentration is unique. Because
the school is small, I have been
able to work very closely with the
music faculty. These teachers do
everything to make sure the material
is understood, and that our learning
experience is the best it can be.
“In particular, the semester
performance class gives musicians
the chance to hear each other
perform, think critically, and
offer
constructive
feedback.
Some learning environments are
intoxicated with a competitiveness
that aims only to break musicians. At
Immaculata, the focus is on building
them. The performance class gives
students the experience they need to
be comfortable in a musical setting,
and in future professional settings.
The closeness and friendship among
the performance concentration
students provides support, and
motivates them to become all they
can be at their instruments, and in
their lives.”
According to William Carr,
DMA, IU professor of music and
Steinway Artist, “We have a highlyskilled faculty in the applied music
area, many of whom are active
as soloists or with symphony
orchestras. Ralph Sorrentino is a
percussionist who has worked with
the Philadelphia Orchestra. Dolores
Ferraro has sung at The Met. Janet
Ahlquist, a pianist, has performed
in major recital halls, in addition to
being a graduate of Juilliard and the
Eastman School of Music. It makes
a huge difference when performance
students are taught by musical
artists who are themselves actively
performing.”
Over the past few years, Carr and
DiCamillo have forged a connection
that DiCamillo struggles to put
into words. “How do you describe
the bond that exists between a
teacher and student who have
worked together to develop the art
they both have a deep passion for?
I have discovered so much about
myself just by the time Dr. Carr
invested in making sure I become
the best person I can possibly be
at the piano, and as an individual.
When I came to college, I assumed
I would have many experiences that
would shape me as a person. What
I didn’t expect was that God would
send me someone so incredible to
help me manage and learn from
everything college has presented me
with. I am so fortunate to have him
as a teacher, mentor, and a friend.”
Carr is equally admiring of
DiCamillo and the progress he has
made as a musician. “Chris is such a
joy to teach, a pleasure to work with.
To see him develop, to watch him
coming along is just wonderful. He
is a fine young man.”
In terms of connections-a theme Carr has explored and
developed in his own work as an
expert consultant to the corporate
world--DiCamillo is writing his
senior colloquium paper on the
connections between the world of
music and the world of the gym.
As unlikely as that link may sound,
DiCamillo lives the truth of that
synthesis. “If I don’t work out, I’m
not productive at the piano,” he said.
“When I was in high school, I would
spend hours at the gym--along with
my music, it was my other safe place
of refuge. They both built me as a
person.”
As DiCamillo has learned in the
classroom and at the piano bench,
“There’s so much the arts can teach
us about creativity and problem
solving and hard work. When I’m
giving piano lessons to a youngster,
I’m not just teaching a set of hands,
I’m teaching a person, showing
them an analogous experience at the
piano that they may be able to relate
to their life.”
DiCamillo quells any fears he
might have about the future by
remembering, “What do I have
to worry about if I’m willing to
work hard? My grandfather was
an immigrant with a fifth-grade
education, but he was always able
to take care of his family because
he was willing to work hard. That
applies to the piano-to everything.”
Immaculata’s
Music
Department, for example, is bearing
the fruits of the hard work involved
in the process of the University’s
becoming an All-Steinway School.
“It ‘s a great honor,” said DiCamillo,
“and all the students benefit. Even
non-music majors like to come
in and see the pianos, see for
themselves what this big investment
was, and they enjoy it, too. Music
has something to teach everyone.
It’s a powerful thing.”
“The world is full of hardships,”
he noted. “In musical terms,
that would be consonance and
dissonance. You wouldn’t appreciate
the consonance without the
dissonance. Music gives us a creative
and philosophical way of looking at
life. It isn’t the only way, but it is a
positive and powerful one. I feel as
though it’s my calling to share that
with the world.”
Thanks
to
Immaculata,
DiCamillo is prepared to do just
that.

Cardinal Dougherty Cross
Bishop McDevitt is honored to display a part of Cardinal Doughtery’s history. The cemet cross was found on top of Cardinal
Dougherty’s building. With the help of Cardinal Doughtery Alum Joe McQuillan ‘57, and over one hundred other Dougherty
Alums, the cross was relocated to Bishop McDevitt’s campus. Thank you for the support of this project!
