Plea deal
Man accepts plea in animal
cruelty case. PAGE 2

Passersby will notice a new addi-
tion to the construction fence along
the former University Medical Cen-
ter site on Witherspoon Street.
Developer AvalonBay partnered
with the Arts Council of Princeton to
produce a public art installation, a
banner that wraps around the fence
along the perimeter of the construc-
tion zone, where AvalonBay plans to
build a 280-unit housing complex.
Weve worked with the Arts Coun-
cil dating back to site plan approval,
Jon Vogel, AvalonBays vice presi-
dent of development, said. We ap-
proached them with the idea that the
construction fence would be up for a
while, and its not a small fence. We
had the idea to cover some of that
fence with a temporary art project.
Maria Evans, artistic director of
the Arts Council, said the concept for
the large banner came from a plan-
ning meeting with AvalonBay.
The meeting was about ways they
could make the construction fence
NORA CARNEVALE/The Sun
The Arts Council of Princeton created a public art
installation for AvalonBays construction fence with
efforts from more than 60 students from two of its
outreach programs, Creative Fridays with Princeton
Young Achievers, and the art classes held at
Princeton Nursery School.

Man accepts plea in animal cruelty case
By KATIE MORGAN
The Sun
Michael G. Rosenberg, a for-
mer Princeton resident indicted
in 2013 for the death of a German
shepherd mix in his care, accept-
ed a plea deal last week that will
put him in prison for five years.
Rosenberg, 32, who described
himself as a dog trainer, was ac-
cused of killing a female shep-
herd mix after the dogs owner
left the animal with Rosenberg
for training.
He was charged with six
counts of animal cruelty in the
incident, which occurred on Aug.
26, 2012.
According to the report filed
through Mark Johnson, Prince-
tons animal control officer, Mer-
cer County resident Tracy Stan-
ton left her dog, named
Shyanne, in Rosenbergs care
on the recommendation of a
friend. Two days later, Rosenberg
contacted Stanton to inform her
Shyanne needed to see a veteri-
narian for what he thought were
heartworms.
By the time Stantons
boyfriend arrived at Rosenbergs
residence minutes later, Shyanne
was unresponsive.
A necropsy performed on the
dog showed that Shyanne died of
blunt force trauma that resulted
in a punctured lung and four bro-
ken ribs.
Rosenberg originally pled not
guilty to the charges in
Shyannes death, but his attorney
James Wronko said a plea deal
became the best option after his
client violated the terms of pa-
role associated with a 2011
Megans Law charge. Rosenberg
pled guilty in July 2011 to a third-
degree charge of endangering
the welfare of a child. According
to the discovery presented in the
case, Rosenberg had a 20-month
sexual relationship with a 14-
year-old girl, beginning in Sep-
tember 2010.
He received a four-year sus-
pended sentence in 2011 on a
component of Megans Law
called parole supervision for
life, Wronko said. He violated
that parole by having narcotics in
his urine, and he was also
charged with providing a doc-
tored urine specimen to parole of-
ficers.
As a result of the parole viola-
tion, Rosenberg faced new nar-
cotics charges in addition to sep-
arate charges of animal cruelty
brought against him for an inci-
dent involving his own dogs. The
four-year suspended sentence
would have become an active sen-
tence, sending Rosenberg to
prison.
Wronko said that as a result of
the plea bargain, which required
Rosenberg to plead guilty to the
animal cruelty charges in the
death of the German Shepherd,
the narcotics charges and the
other animal cruelty charges
were dismissed.
After a sentencing hearing in
August, Rosenberg will serve his
now-active four-year prison term
concurrently with the new five-
year sentence.
Wronko said once Rosenberg
is released from prison, he
will remain under parole super-
vision for the rest of his life
under the 2011 Megans Law con-
viction.
Princeton plans to hire network
support employee to save money
By KATIE MORGAN
The Sun
Princeton plans to hire a new
employee in the immediate fu-
ture, and his or her $130,000 con-
tract will actually save the mu-
nicipality money.
Bob McQueen, the towns
chief information officer, said
the town currently outsources
network support, getting about
32 hours of dedicated service
from an outside company each
month.
The Princeton Public Schools
and Princeton Public Library
each have similar contracts with
outside network support, though
the two entities and the munici-
pality share a fiber optic net-
work.
The big picture of our net-
work includes all three entities,
McQueen said. With three dif-
ferent people providing network
support, they only really have a
part of that picture. Its been
hard for us to follow projects,
and difficult for us to deal with
problems and issues.
The hiring of a senior net-
work architectural engineer, Mc-
Queen said, will resolve those is-
sues and save the town money.
The contract, which is
$130,000, includes salary, benefits
and administrative fees, Mc-
Queen said. And its being split
three ways, with the schools and
us paying the majority 45.4 per-
cent each, and the library paying
12 percent. This brings us in a lit-
tle lower than the price tag on
the outsourced company, and
well be getting 174 hours a
month instead of 32.
McQueen said having one per-
son responsible for the whole
network will make updates and
repairs simpler, and produce a
better response in an emergency.
This network is what keeps
everything running behind the
scenes, McQueen said. If one
patch cable goes down, you could
have an entire switch, or 48 PCs,
down. Its a good investment to
have one person who under-
stands the whole thing. With the
outsourced company, we had a
four-hour response time for a
priority down issue. The new
[network engineer] will be on
call 24/7, so if we have an issue
in the middle of the night, it will
be solved quickly. Thats impor-
tant in a place like Princeton
where the police department
needs to be up constantly.
Mayor Liz Lempert said the
joint-hire between the town,
schools and library represents
the consolidation values of com-
munication and partnership.
This is what we want to
be seeing, Lempert said. Wed
all like to see better collabora-
tion with groups like the schools
and the library, with us now
being one municipality instead
of two. This is a great example of
that.
Council passes ordinance
to purchase, raze house
By KATIE MORGAN
The Sun
A pretty plot of land ringed by
large trees and a babbling brook
has proved a costly nightmare for
the owners of the home on the
property, the residences rotating
cast of tenants and the munici-
pality.
The property, located at 59
Meadowbrook Road, has been
flooding for as long as some can
remember, and the house, con-
structed in 1960, has been severe-
ly damaged.
At the May 27 Princeton Coun-
cil meeting, an ordinance was in-
troduced that would allow the
municipality to purchase the
property and raze the house.
Officials said this is a problem
that has developed over a number
of years.
This has been happening for
10, 15 years. Probably longer than
that, Administrator Bob Bruschi
said.
According to Council President
Bernie Miller, the property is ad-
jacent to a tributary for Harrys
Brook.
This is probably an area
where nothing should have been
built in the first place, Miller
said. This has been a blight and
an issue in that taxpayers have
been paying over the years for the
rehabilitation of the property
every time it floods.
The homeowners and land-
lords of the property, Moshe and
Nira Lavid, have applied for sev-
eral Federal Emergency Manage-
ment Agency grants to cover the
rehabilitation of the home after it
floods.
The ordinance will approve the
municipalitys use of another
FEMA grant to buy the property.
The Lavids have agreed to sell the
.75-acre property and 1,892-
square-foot home to the town for
$625,000.
Officials said approximately
$30,000 of that would come from
the towns Open Space Trust
Fund, and the rest would be cov-
ered by the FEMA grant.
We secured this grant from
FEMA, and have negotiated with
the owners of the property for the
price, Miller said. Part of the
grant will cover the cost to re-
move the house, and the site will
become an open space or a park.

Evans: Banner is cheerful and pleasing
much more fun for the communi-
ty, Evans said. I came up with
the idea of the fence looking like
a beehive with bees building and
constructing a honeycomb nest.
Evans said the Arts Council
turned to its Princeton Young
Achievers and Princeton Nursery
School programs to bring the
project to life.
We thought it would be very
cool to get the students involved
with the artwork, Evans said.
The art instructors started dis-
cussing the lives of bees and look-
ing at pictures with their classes.
The students started painting
bees and flowers and honey-
combs. More than 60 students,
ranging in age from [preschool] to
fifth grade, did the work.
Evans said the banners design
is cheerful and pleasing to the
eye.
Its a very whimsical design,
Evans said. The bees are blue
and the background is a golden
honey color. The flowers are pink,
but I didnt want it to be too over-
whelming. I wanted it to be view-
er friendly and friendly to the
community.
The civic-minded partnership
between AvalonBay and the Arts
Council comes as the developer
plans to wage another court bat-
tle against the municipality.
AvalonBay is suing Princeton
over environmental testing the
governing body is requiring at
the site as part of a developers
agreement.
The agreement itself was a
condition of the Planning Board
approval AvalonBay received last
July. Until both parties accept the
developers agreement, Avalon-
Bay cannot receive permits to
begin demolition or construction
on the site.
Council approved the develop-
ers agreement in April, but in-
cluded environmental testing rec-
ommended by Dr. Ira Whitman, a
licensed site remediation profes-
sional hired by the town to assess
potential environmental contami-
nants or issues at the site.
According to the new lawsuit,

AvalonBay suing for damages
which is the third one regarding
the development filed in less than
a year, AvalonBay believes Whit-
man has imagined the need for
this testing, and is asking the
court to issue the demolition per-
mit without requiring the testing.
AvalonBay is also suing for
damages, based on the claim that
the necessity of bringing the
issue to court has prevented them
from starting demolition.
The Princeton land use engi-
neer has made it clear that he will
not approve the demolition plan
unless AvalonBay agrees to Whit-
mans additional environmental
testing, the lawsuit reads. As a
result, proceeding with the con-
struction of the inclusionary de-
velopment is at an impasse. Aval-
onBay, which now owns the prop-
erty, is losing hundreds of thou-
sands of dollars per month due to
this delay.
Mayor Liz Lempert said she
was disappointed the town would
head back to court with Avalon-
Bay, but that the town intends to
remain firm in its demands for
the additional environmental
testing.
We were certainly hoping that
AvalonBay would recognize that
were working in good faith to
protect the community and the
future residents of that site,
Lempert said. AvalonBay seems
to have drawn a line in the sand.
AvalonBays counsel could not
be reached for comment on the lit-
igation.
Vogel said he prefers to focus
on the successful partnership
that created the construction
fence banner.
This was something were
proud to be a part of, and it really
is a win-win for everybody, he
said. Were going to be here for a
very long time, and were eager to
continue to participate in projects
like this.

We need to talk about women
#YesAllWomen tweets paint desolate and terrifying landscape
6 THE PRINCETON SUN JUNE 4-10, 2014
T
heres something we need to
talk about, and its not going to
be easy.
We need to talk about women. We
need to talk about women who are
afraid, and women who are hurt and
women who are angry.
We need to talk about women who
are finally, finally talking about it.
Two weeks ago, another local news-
paper ran several stories about the
rape of a Princeton woman in a neigh-
borhood playground nine years ago. A
week before that, there was national
news coverage about 54 American uni-
versities Princeton University
among them being investigated for
the way they handle sexual assaults on
campus.
And on May 23, a disturbed young
man went on a rampage in Santa Bar-
bara, California, killing six and
wounding 13 others, in retribution
against the women who didnt want to
date him.
Women everywhere took to Twitter,
and began to share their personal sto-
ries of violence and fear of violence.
They tweeted about their common ex-
periences and their reactions, both in-
ternal and external, to the leering, cat-
calls and anxiety they faced every day.
Men took to Twitter too. They start-
ed, unsurprisingly, to defend their gen-
der, protesting that not all men were
violent or threatening. And in re-
sponse, #YesAllWomen was born.
The hashtag was trending within 15
minutes, and is still trending at press
time. Six days after it began, #YesAll-
Women has been used more than 2
million times, and frankly, we hope it
never stops.
Some of the #YesAllWomen tweets
came from followers and followees of
@PrincetonSun. It is important for us
to tell you we read every single one.
Its even more important that we urge
everyone who hasnt to do the same.
Its important because this is a con-
versation we constantly tiptoe around.
Maybe men dont talk about everyday
misogyny because they dont often see
it firsthand, or because not being
aware of misogyny means you cant
possibly be contributing to it. Women
dont talk about everyday misogyny
because when they do they are called
crazy or touchy. They are called Femi-
nist with a capital F like its a bad
thing.
But not talking about it means not
fixing it, and the problem is far too big
to go unfixed.
While 30 minutes spent scrolling
through #YesAllWomen tweets paint-
ed us a desolate, terrifying landscape
where women, all women, live, it also
gave us something to look forward to.
Men began sending revelatory tweets;
tweets that said they had no idea.
Tweets that said, Im listening.
Weve officially taken the first step.
Were talking about it. And the next
step is to do something about it.
Maybe that means getting one reader
to type #YesAllWomen into Twitters
search bar. Maybe it means the Prince-
ton Council making a pledge to classi-
fy catcalls on the street as harassment
and begin issuing summonses.
Maybe were not there just yet.
But the willingness shown over the
last few days of women to keep talk-
ing, and men to keep listening, makes
us think were finally on our way.
It is perhaps best evidenced by a
May 24 tweet from a man named Al-
bert W. Dubreuil: Started reading the
#YesAllWomen tweets [because] Ive
got a daughter, but now I see I should
be reading them [because] Ive got two
sons.

Michael Graves to be interviewed for radio program
Randy Cohen will interview renowned
Princeton architect Michael Graves for a
future broadcast of Cohens public radio
program Person, Place, Thing Wednes-
day, June 4, at 7 p.m. in the Community
Room at Princeton Public Library.
For the program, guests are asked to
speak about a person, a place and a thing
they find meaningful, rather than about
themselves. Something interesting hap-
pens when people speak not about them-
selves but about something they care
about, Cohen has said. The result is sur-
prising stories from great talkers.
Graves is credited with broadening the
role of the architect in society and raising
public awareness of good design as it re-
lates to the quality of everyday life. He
taught at Princeton University for 39 years
and is now the universitys Robert
Schirmer professor of architecture, emeri-
tus.
Graves is the first architect inducted
into the New Jersey Hall of Fame.

Elizabeth Gray
Erickson
May 22, 2014
Elizabeth Gray Erickson of
Princeton died unexpectedly on
May 22. She was 46.
A dancer with the School of
the Princeton Ballet Society
throughout her youth and a grad-
uate of the Princeton public
schools, Liz attended Williams
College where she majored in
Japanese studies and spent her
junior year in Kyoto, Japan, grad-
uating in 1989.
During the summers of her col-
lege years, she had the opportuni-
ty to intern with the Bank of New
York and after graduating from
Williams worked in New York as
an analyst in First Bostons in-
vestment banking group. She
then worked for two years at
Bloomberg L.P.s Tokyo office.
She returned to the U.S. to pursue
her MBA at the Kellogg School of
Management at Northwestern
University. Upon her graduation
in 1995, she married Jonathan Er-
ickson and moved back to New
York to work for American Ex-
press.
In 1997, she joined Save the
Children as associate director of
U.S. programs and co-founded
and managed Youth Noise, a web-
based youth advocacy program.
Save the Chil-
dren was the
first in a long
list of youth
and poverty
focused com-
mitments to
which Liz de-
voted herself,
a list which in-
cluded leader-
ship roles with
Isles, a Trenton-based community
development organization, the
Princeton Area Community
Foundation where she was a
leader of the Fund for Women
and Girls, Volunteer Connect,
Family and Childrens Services of
Central New Jersey, the Center
for Supportive Schools, and Kids-
bridge Tolerance Museum in
Ewing. Liz, the recipient of the
YMCAs 2011 Tribute to Women
award, had recently joined the
board of McCarter Theatre.
As devoted as she was to com-
munity and charity, Lizs greatest
commitment was always to her
children, Alexandra, William
and Edward Erickson. The
daughter of Rachel and the late
Charles Gray, Liz is survived by
Jon, Alex, Will, and Ned; her
mother; brother Douglas Gray,
his wife Rebecca Johnson, and
their children, Ella and
Nathaniel; brother James Gray,
his wife Jessica Gray, and their
children, Sadie and Billy; and
Jons parents, Kathy and Ted Er-
ickson.
A memorial service will be
held on June 6, at 3 p.m. at Nassau
Presbyterian Church, 61 Nassau
St., Princeton. In lieu of flowers,
memorial contributions may be
made to the Princeton Communi-
ty Foundations Fund for Women
and Girls, 15 Princess Road,
Lawrenceville, NJ 08648,
www.pacf.org, and Save the Chil-
dren, 54 Wilton Road, Westport,
CT 0680,

Lizs family is deeply grateful
to her extensive circle of friends
who have been so supportive and
to all who honored her by gather-
ing in Palmer Square on the
evening of her passing to give
thanks for her life. Her selfless-
ness and unbounded kindness
will be missed by her family,
friends, and the countless others
whose lives she has touched.

Were award winners!
I like to think that we do some
pretty good work here at The Sun.
Sure, I may be a little biased, see-
ing as how Ive worked here for
more than nine years, and have
played a part in how we look
today as a company.
I cant help but be proud of the
work we produce every week, cov-
ering all of our towns on an in-
depth basis.
Im also particularly proud of
how far weve come over these
past nine years, and how weve
continued to transition in the
ever-changing world of the news
media.
But last week, I was delivered
news that made me perhaps the
proudest Ive been since I first
joined this company in March
2005.
Officially, we can consider our-
selves an award-winning news
company. Officially, two of our
news department employees can
call themselves award-winning
journalists.
Our very own Katie Morgan,
the associate editor for The
Princeton Sun, and Mary
Serkalow, the managing editor for
all The Suns, were named win-
ners of the 2014 New Jersey Soci-
ety of Professional Journalists
Excellence in Journalism
awards for work done in 2013.
Katie won second place in the
weekly newspaper category for
the Wilson Barto Rookie of the
Year, and Mary won third place in
the weekly newspaper category
for Page One Design.
They, along with our company,
will be recognized at a banquet at
the end of the month.
Please join me in congratulat-
ing both Katie and Mary, and the
rest of our news department, for
the recognition. It was our hard
work and dedication to our read-
ers that helped us win these
awards.
Heres to more awards, and
even better news coverage, in the
future!

Now entering our 4th Generation!
Ordinance will have
public hearing June 23
When the ordinance was intro-
duced, members of the public
voiced their support for the plan
to raze the home.
Victoria Bell, who lives on
Meadowbrook Road, said she and
her neighbors refer to the home
as the flood house.
We know its a rental property,
and weve seen some of those peo-
ple devastated, Bell said. Its a
one-floor building, and when it
gets flooded, its actually in the
river. We on the block feel bad
that this keeps happening. At
least once a year, sometimes twice
a year, a family of renters is dev-
astated when the house floods.
Bruschi said razing the house
would resolve the issue at little
cost to the municipality.
From our perspective, this
solves a local problem with a very
modest amount of funding from
the community, Bruschi said. It
takes care of an issue we con-
stantly get involved with.
Mayor Liz Lempert recused
herself from the discussion of the
ordinance, because the house is
in close proximity to her own
home.
The ordinance will have a pub-
lic hearing and be voted on at the
June 23 council meeting.

The following have been re-
ported from the Princeton Police
Department.
On May 19 at 4:15 p.m. a victim
reported that unknown actors
damaged the hood of her 2010
Volkswagen Jetta while it was
parked in the Billie Ellis parking
lot on Billie Ellis Lane. Four six to
12 inch gouges were found in the
paint on the front hood. The dam-
age reportedly occurred some-
time between May 17 at 4:30 p.m.
and May 19 at 4:15 p.m. Repair
costs are unknown.
On May 19 at 8:15 a.m., a
Princeton Recreation Depart-
ment employee reported that he
discovered graffiti in the Grover
Park mens bathroom stall. The
graffiti was done in black and red
spray paint on the inside stall of
the bathroom. The graffiti ap-
peared to be a face in black, with
red eyes and the letters ANT
vertically down the right side.
The incident reportedly occurred
between 7:40 a.m. on May 16 and
8:15 a.m. on May 19. The repair
cost is unknown.
On May 20, police arrested a 66-
year-old female from Belle Mead
for driving while intoxicated. The
driver was arrested after a report
of an accident in the parking lot
of 301 Harrison St. She was ar-
rested, transported to headquar-
ters, processed and later released.
There were no injuries.
On May 21, police arrested a
male from Somerset on the 200
block of North Harrison Street as
a result of several active war-
rants for his arrest from Trenton,
Lawrenceville and Toms River to-
taling $5,956. He was processed
and taken to the Trenton Police
Department.
On May 21, at 7:59 p.m., subse-
quent to a motor vehicle stop, po-
lice arrested a 24-year-old Hills-
borough woman for hindering ap-
prehension after she identified
herself as her sister. She was
processed and released with a
special complaint summons.
On May 22 at 1:22 a.m., police
responded to an audible alarm

Logging onto the Princeton Po-
lice Departments Nixle web page,
one can see a virtual play-by-play
of the departments breaking
news.
Entered: 1 week ago, MISSING
PERSON Aaron Berger 22yo
white male 62 210 lbs. Last seen
in NYC. Along with instructions
to call Princeton Police is a photo
of Berger.
Scrolling up, the page reads,
Entered: 4 days, 22 hours ago,
MISSING PERSON CANCELLA-
TION: Aaron Berger has been lo-
cated.
The Princeton Police Depart-
ment recently sent a wave of time-
ly updates over the past few weeks
disseminating information about
several missing persons. Accord-
ing to Sgt. Steven Riccitello, the
recent string of missing persons
was not the result of a trending
increase of disappearances, but
the result of increased access to
information.
Historically, in the years that I
have been here, missing persons
just come. I cant say for sure
whether this is an increase or not,
but with a relatively new system
like Nixle, there is so much new
information constantly being sent
out to the public, he said.
Nixle is the system used by the
police department to instanta-
neously deliver an alert or mes-
sage to Facebook, Twitter and
even residents cellphones. While
it can be utilized for a variety of
situations including traffic and
weather news, Riccitello says it
has become instrumental in let-
ting the public know immediately
when someone is missing.
While in the past, someone
would have to be unaccounted for
at least 24 hours to be officially
considered missing, Riccitello ex-
plained that now, the case starts
right away, and as soon as the case
starts, a Nixle alert is sent out.
We attach a description of the
missing person and a photo, and
that goes to anyone who has com-
puter access and a message is sent
to those who subscribe with their
cellphones, he said.
After the police gather the nec-
essary information, such as name,
age, clothing and any vehicle driv-
en, the information is entered into
the NCIC missing persons data-
base that Riccitello explained is
standard for most police depart-
ments to access. With the addition
of social media to the process, he
said the department often re-
ceives responses or tips from
the community almost immedi-
ately.
With access to the superhigh-
way, we are reaching a broad
range of people in a very short pe-
riod of time, and that has been
helpful for us in many investiga-
tions, he said.
Adding that minutes are valu-
able in these situations, Riccitel-
lo indicates that the ability of the
police department to notify the
majority of residents of emergen-
cies and missing persons has
drastically changed the way peo-
ple find out about missing com-
munity members and other vital
news. He urges Princeton resi-
dents to take advantage of a free
subscription to Nixle.
It is great to be able to work
with the community, to have them
help us and to keep them alerted
to what is going on and to make
their lives easier, he said.

ments website at www.princeton-

Not many Princeton residents
would believe that Mayor Liz
Lempert was recently seen in a
police car, but to kick off the
Princeton Police Departments
newly implemented Ride-Along
Program on May 21, Lempert
took a seat in the front of Officer
Christopher Cravens patrol car
and was able to witness the work
of the department first-hand. Po-
lice Commissioner Heather
Howard participated in the kick-
off as well and rode alongside Of-
ficer Darwin Kieffer.
During her ride along, Lempert
reported that she observed the po-
lice officers procedure as she wit-
nessed an arrest. According to
her, the officer did an excellent
job in treating the suspect with
respect.
Each car has a computer in it,
and it is interesting to see just
how high tech police work has be-
come. They can type in a license
plate, and all sorts of information
pops up on the screen, Lempert
said.
Police plan to expand the pro-
gram and open it for members of
the public to experience a day in
the life of an officer. According to
a press release from the police de-
partment, the Ride-Along pro-
gram allows citizens and police
officers from other jurisdictions
to voluntarily accompany officers
and to observe law enforcement
activities to better understand
policing in the Princeton commu-
nity. The program will serve as a
reflection of the departments
goals, which include cooperating
with the community to address
neighborhood issues.
Additionally, the program will
work to operate an open, accessi-
ble, accountable agency, the re-
lease said.
Participants in the program
must be at least 16 years old and
will be required to complete an
information form and liability
waiver form. Children under 18
years old must have a parent or
guardian complete a written re-
quest and liability waiver form.
Eligible participants can obtain
an application at the police head-
quarters Monday through Friday
from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. from the Po-
lice Administration Office.

A man in a powdered wig with a sword on his hip strolled across the Princeton Battlefield on May 24
with a plastic bottle of Pepsi to his lips in a poignant meeting of past and present. Several times a year,
history buffs and re-enactors gather on the Battlefield, many of them in uniform, to educate visitors
about colonial customs, lifestyles and weapons. Dozens of those visitors cheered as re-enactors rang in
Memorial Day weekend with the deafening sound of cannon fire. As they prepared to fire a second time,
one man leaned down and murmured to his daughter about the brave young men who started it all.

When Greg Hand started
teaching at Princeton High
School, Gerald Ford was presi-
dent, a gallon of gas cost 59 cents
and a new home could be pur-
chased for $48,000.
Safe to say a few things have
changed during Hands 38-year
teaching and 29-year coaching ca-
reer.
Hand announced his retire-
ment recently, citing he hopes to
spend more time at home with
his wife Nancy and be closer with
their three children. The deci-
sion to retire was made after
gradual planning.
It began in a general way sev-
eral years ago. I started to con-
ceive moving later into life and
what that would look like, so I
started to think about a time-
line, Hand said. Ultimately, the
decision was made a few months
ago. I wanted the school to have
time before the fall seasons
began.
After coaching for nearly three
decades, Hand admits watching
from the stands will be an adjust-
ment.
I am excited to watch the pro-
grams in the years to come and to
come to appreciate it from a dif-
ferent perspective. Im sure per-
ceptions on what Ill miss about
coaching and about teaching will
change as time passes, Hand
said.
The conver-
sation he had
with his team
was a special
one for Hand.
I told them
how deeply
Ive enjoyed
working with
them and how
I admired
them, he said.
As the school year comes to a
close, Hand is not leaving Prince-
ton with any regrets over lost
matches. His focus has been on
his students success.
I leave with a sense of happi-
ness as a coach and as a teacher. I
have always done my best to work
with students to reach their ob-
jectives and the ones we have for
them. It was always rewarding,
Hand said. I was very fortunate
to work in a community of pro-
fessional colleagues that I have a
tremendous amount of respect
and affection for.
What will he miss the most?
The daily process of teaching
students, the human interaction
with kids and with my colleagues
is what Ill miss, Hand said.
And the demanding kind of in-
tellectual work that was required
every day.
Hand, who a few years ago
gave up being the track and field
throws coach, has had great suc-
cess in his career including a
state championship in 2012 for
boys swimming. His teams have
won numerous sectional titles,
and his swim teams competed in
the state final the past three sea-
sons, and five times overall.
Hand won seven sectional ti-
tles with the girls swimming
team as well as the 2014 and 2013
Mercer County Championships
titles. In boys swimming, he
guided the team to 12 sectional ti-
tles and seven county crowns.
The most predominant im-
pression is how long of a career
it has been. That so much has
happened. Im happy that Ive
had all of it, the wins and the
losses. Ive always felt that losses
come with the wins. I still hated
to lose, but to figure out after
every contest what we can learn
from it, thats what meant a lot to
me, Hand said. Thats what
stands out to me, the scale and
the quantity of it. Its been a long
career that Ive enjoyed for so
long.
Not one meet or game or
result stands out in Hands mind.
What hell remember most fondly
is the time spent together as a
team.
I can remember hundreds of
different contests but likewise
there are so many more practices
with our coaches and our student
athletes that were so important
to me. Thats what Ill remember
most fondly I think, the time we
spent together, Hand said.

Walking into Community Park
Elementary School, visitors are
immediately struck with a bright
and intricate mural composed of
hundreds of multi-colored tiles.
The tiles swirl across the wall and
are centered on the image of a
whimsical tree. The mural, enti-
tled The Reflection Tree, was
the creation of art teacher Lara
Darpino. Using only old and do-
nated tile, the entire class of fifth-
grade students designed the clay
tiles in an array of colors to cul-
minate in the massive mosaic.
Tucked into the mural are the
words love, peace, faith, smile
and dream as a reminder for stu-
dents to reflect on positivity. Com-
munity Park recently became a
member of the National Wildlife
Federations Eco-Schools USA
program, which provides re-
sources to support schools work-
ing toward sustainability free of
charge. Over last year, the pro-
gram has grown significantly
throughout the state, increasing
from 43 to 116 participating
schools.
The recycled mural is one of
many of Community Parks ef-
forts to promote sustainability
and awareness for the environ-
ment among its students. The
schools Colonial Herb Garden
and Prairie Habitat Gardens are
additional staples of the schools
commitment to interactive learn-
ing about humans impact. CP is
also home to an amphitheater
with a naturalistic atmosphere
and seats made of stumps to en-
courage class outdoors.
The mural is now among the
schools existing achievements in
environmental education and
will provide a lasting image to
students and faculty, reminding
them to appreciate positivity in
their own life, and also to appreci-
ate the environment. Eco-Schools
Waste and Consumption pathway
encourages schools to decrease
their environmental impact by re-
ducing, reusing and recycling.
According to a press release from
Eco-Schools, the mural aligns
with this goal because no new
tiles were used.
Art expresses feelings and
feelings imprint learning within
the memory. These up cycling ac-
tivities connected with the Core
Curriculum Standards leave posi-
tive lasting impressions with the
students, Jennifer Dowd, Eco-
Schools NJ coordinator, said in
the release.
Other registered Princeton
Eco-Schools include Princeton
Academy of the Sacred Heart,
Princeton Friends School, Prince-
ton Junior School, Princeton
High School, Stuart Country Day
School of the Sacred Hearth and
Waldorf School of Princeton.
