administration announced schools would no longer be shielded from U.S Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents entering to arrest immigrants It was just the latest sign of what I have witnessed firsthand as a public school educator for 21 years: the deterioration of our nation’s public schools as a safe haven for children I can remember the first time I was afraid to go to school I was a senior at suburban Lockport High School and I was about a month away from graduating two seniors at Columbine High School in Colorado walked into their high school armed with guns I watched the news of Columbine with my parents as the media talked about the killers being in a “trench coat mafia.” I knew some kids who wore trench coats to school scared me enough that my parents called the school we lead our kids through lockdown drills year after year hoping it will save lives if another shooting occurs I began my high school teaching career on Chicago’s South Side as an English teacher in the Roseland and Pullman communities On my first day as a Chicago Public Schools teacher our principal projected an abysmal ACT test score He told us loud and clear that we were a school on probation where many kids and families felt the safest: their local school By juxtaposing school shootings and school closings I don’t mean to diminish the tragic loss of so many lives by children My intent is to point out the mirage of the American school as a safe haven has become false because our politicians refuse to tighten gun laws or enact policies that would preserve schools as “second homes” for vulnerable children And now, President Donald Trump has given the OK to send ICE into schools (and churches) to detain and deport students and families including Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals recipients who rode atop freight trains to seek asylum taught themselves English and eventually graduated at the top of their class fleeing death and destruction from Russia’s invasion who watch news about the war on their phones as they study to keep their grades up I’m certain I’ve taught countless undocumented students though I have no way of knowing because schools don’t have citizenship information But whether ICE actually makes it to the schoolhouse door or not, Trump has further clouded the image of schools as safe havens. Some students are now even afraid to attend not wanting to risk their livelihoods on a ride to school Political action and inaction have upended the view of schools as safe History has shown us education reform that values students and teachers has come from teachers’ unions. Many teachers’ unions, even in red states united during the first Trump presidency for greater pay and benefits school closures and deportations to our dockets we need you to take the lead and fight against the further destruction of our nation’s schools Our children deserve our schools to be the safe spaces we experienced in this country is the library media specialist for a suburban Chicago public high school and is National Board Certified Follow her on BlueSky @ginacaneva.bsky.social The views and opinions expressed by contributors are their own and do not necessarily reflect those of the Chicago Sun-Times or any of its affiliates The Sun-Times welcomes letters to the editor and op-eds.

In NCAA Division I football, male coaches lead 100% of teams. So imagine women being the majority of coaches for college D1 football Women may struggle to win coaching positions because they may be balancing families and career It’s my hope that the 2024 championship puts that sexist notion aside as both the Louisville and Penn State head coaches are mothers and former D1 NCAA volleyball champions as players When I saw coach Schumacher-Cawley breaking that glass ceiling in front of millions of viewers while fighting breast cancer Seeing a female coach as a champion should lead to more hiring of women as head coaches in a sport women have dominated since its inception Gina Caneva is the library media specialist for a public high school in the Chicago suburbs and holds a doctorate in education She was awarded a full Division I NCAA scholarship to the University of Illinois at Chicago and played volleyball there from 1999-2003 X A mural inside the Community Youth Development Institute. and others thinking and writing about public education.As a Chicago Public School teacher and librarian for the past 15 years I’ve seen many students fall through the cracks I remember the young man who sat in my class at the beginning of his senior year having missed over 30 days of school for reasons unknown to me Or the sophomore girl who transferred out after displaying behavior and academic problems I saw her years later on the Chicago Tribune’s mugshot webpage Both of these students came to mind when I read Adeshina Emmanuel’s story about Javion Grayer a 16-year-old Chicago student who reads at the second grade level What struck me about Javion’s story was that his educational experience was as disjointed as his home life and his family wished someone could help him But many of the schools he attended did not provide adequate special education services or reading specialists a district that prides itself on its variety of choices for families Javion’s story is an illustration of how little all of those schools can have in common and how little they work together The result can be students getting a patchwork education within one school district with little horizontal alignment among schools that serve the same grades and little vertical alignment among its K-8 schools and high schools we see transfer students who want to come to Lindblom in search of something better I watch many transfer students who come with grass-is-greener hopes struggle because of differences in curriculum Lindblom is a selective enrollment high school and many that transfer in are not coming from other selective enrollment schools But Javion’s experience was probably somewhat similar watching schools right next to one another operate in very different ways Elementary schools that once acted as feeder schools to neighborhood high schools are now feeder schools for every high school in the city That leaves elementary schools not knowing much about the expectations of the high schools their students will go on to attend and high schools not knowing exactly what students learned during their elementary experience When I taught freshman English for a couple of school years not once did I know any information about the curriculum my incoming students had used I didn’t even know what elementary school they came from let alone their specific struggles or strengths Think about how much more effective our high schools would be if we actually had that information When I started teaching, I experienced the benefits of a reading specialist myself. I was not prepared to teach reading, as much of my teacher education taught me to become a teacher like the ones I had in high school — ones that assigned texts I knew little of what to do when students didn’t or couldn’t read the assigned text I quickly discovered that holding a discussion on a chapter that only a few students have read or understood didn’t make for an effective classroom It was my school’s reading specialist who taught me how to help students access unfamiliar texts and incorporate a slew of strategies into my classroom  She also let me know that it’s OK to use class time for reading and that my students would benefit from me reading aloud to the class and many of my classroom management issues disappeared the district should prioritize addressing both problems Chicago Public Schools needs to make sure students are learning the same basic reading skills in every school and that high schools understand what’s being taught to younger students and vice versa The district also needs reading specialists to return I wish that Javion had attended a school where such a specialist could have helped his teachers and worked one-on-one with students who are grade levels behind in reading He would have been noticed; he would have been helped I have that same wish for students and teachers across the district Gina Caneva is a 15-year Chicago Public Schools veteran who works as a teacher-librarian and writing center director at Lindblom Math and Science Academy.

In November, male students at a high school in Wisconsin repeated the phrase, “Your body copying white supremacist and Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes A K-12 district in Vermont saw harassment complaints quadruple the week after the election, with students citing harassment based on race, ethnicity, and gender and sexual identity. Native American students in Wyoming found a swastika and a racial slur hanging from the mirror in a school bathroom Colleagues near and far have shared stories of white students telling Latino students that they will be deported her principal pointed out that the text messages opened the floodgates among students who opened up about the racist and hateful language they faced in school and homophobic language on full display in his campaign Our children and adolescents saw it accepted as normal — and successful Where does this put schools? Many schools, like the public high school I work for and my children’s public K-8 district in the Chicago suburbs, follow the Illinois State Constitution, which protects students’ right to a safe environment free from bullying and hate speech But what if Trump is normalizing hate speech so much that students don’t recognize when they are using it or don’t know how to speak up when it is being used against them One way for Illinois schools to be proactive against hate speech is by training educators on how to respond. According to the federal government’s anti-bullying website, Illinois has some of the most comprehensive anti-bullying policies and laws in the nation But we should require school districts to train teachers and staff on how to respond to bullying the area where discriminatory speech often manifests in schools Educators in other states should look into their state’s anti bullying policies and laws to see how they actually protect kids from hate speech — and advocate for stronger protection if needed All 50 states have some policies and laws on this Schools need to acknowledge that children and adolescents are susceptible to repeating language that has become normal and that the president’s rhetoric is often racist and sexist Educators need to know the language that is circulating and how to respond School districts should replicate what happened when I was a high school librarian in Chicago Public Schools and the news media reported on sexual abuse and harassment in CPS all schools led professional development on what interactions were permissible “grooming” of minors and sexual harassment it became very clear to all of us what was acceptable and how to react Yet I have never had the same level of professional development surrounding hate speech that is now seeping into our everyday lexicon Whether it’s opening a chat or text telling them to report for “plantation duty,” watching as male students chant “Your body my choice,” or entering a bathroom to find a swastika hateful speech has already entered our schools How do we disavow white supremacy and the language of hate when our country’s leaders embolden it and white supremacist language becomes mainstream when the forces in charge act to denigrate one that doesn’t just punish kids or give consequences but one that helps teachers and students discuss and respond to the language of hate and helps students build empathy Educators need to learn to spot this language and be proactive against it I urge administrators and educators to plan professional development on this so schools can remain safe havens for our children and teens we will succumb to the bullying and hatred we often claim to fight against is the library media specialist for a public high school in the Chicago suburbs and was previously an educator in Chicago Public Schools Volume 11 - 2024 | https://doi.org/10.3389/fsurg.2024.1393898 Surgeons are skilled at making complex decisions over invasive procedures that can save lives and alleviate pain and avoid complications in patients The knowledge to make these decisions is accumulated over years of schooling and practice Their experience is in turn shared with others which get published in larger and larger amounts every year we review the literature related to the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in surgery We focus on what is currently available and what is likely to come in the near future in both clinical care and research We show that AI has the potential to be a key tool to elevate the effectiveness of training and decision-making in surgery and the discovery of relevant and valid scientific knowledge in the surgical domain We also address concerns about AI technology including the inability for users to interpret algorithms as well as incorrect predictions A better understanding of AI will allow surgeons to use new tools wisely for the benefit of their patients Venn diagram of artificial intelligence and data science Artificial intelligence (AI) is a broad field that encompasses various sub-disciplines Machine learning is a subset of AI focused on algorithms and statistical models that enable computers to perform tasks without explicit instructions by relying on patterns and inference instead employs multi-layered neural networks to model complex patterns and decision-making processes is a distinct discipline that involves extracting knowledge and insights from structured and unstructured data It heavily utilizes techniques from statistics and machine learning regression analysis is a statistical technique used to understand relationships between variables and is often employed to predict outcomes these systems have also raised concerns about harm they could cause due to generation of incorrect output and “deepfakes” that can be difficult to detect To make the best recommendations for patients surgeons rely heavily on the published literature and use what has been published as building blocks for future innovations there is a well-defined pathway between an idea and a product or procedure that is used by surgeons to treat patients clinical studies and long-term outcome studies we will focus on several of these steps and outline where AI is currently used The integration of AI in surgical education and training is an area of increasing interest and potential with implications that extend across various domains of clinical practice and research AI technology can be utilized to automate certain tasks of educators and improve learning outcomes in the field of education AI-driven personalized training modules hold significant promise in revolutionizing surgical education and training by providing tailored support and feedback to learners ultimately enhancing the quality of surgical practice and patient care These references collectively support the concept of using AI analytics to evaluate technical skills and overall proficiency in surgical education and training providing actionable feedback to learners and educators the integration of AI in surgical education not only enhances the learning experience but also contributes to the overall improvement of surgical training and assessment The application of AI in surgical education and training is a burgeoning field that holds significant promise for enhancing the quality of surgical training ensuring consistent and objective assessment of skills and driving the continuous improvement of surgical education As these technologies continue to evolve and integrate into surgical training programs they are poised to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of surgical training ultimately leading to improved patient outcomes and the advancement of the surgical profession The ongoing collaboration between clinicians and AI experts will be crucial in realizing the full potential of these technologies ensuring that they are leveraged effectively and ethically to enhance surgical training and patient care AI can be useful to facilitate various steps of the evaluation, production and dissemination of scientific articles mediated by publishing houses (22). In the realm of scientific article review and evaluation, one significant challenge is efficiently managing a high volume of submissions, which results in increased publication output (23) This challenge gave rise to the utilization of AI as a tool for streamlining the process publishing houses can aim to scale their operations while ensuring thorough scrutiny and maintaining the integrity of publications To address the issue, automated systems have been implemented (22). Right after an article is submitted, AI can facilitate the process of its thematic classification (24), e.g., identifying articles that are more apt for adjacent medical fields rather than surgical. Utilizing techniques like TF-IDF or more sophisticated document embeddings (25, 26) can allow reclassification ensuring that the research reaches its relevant audience It is possible to harness the power of AI in early identification of high-impact articles, facilitating rapid dissemination of potentially ground-breaking research (35) This predictive intelligence could aid publishers or researchers and help medical practitioners in staying abreast with the most pivotal advancements in their field we need to note that the use of AI should not compromise the essential human aspects of scientific publishing Editors and peer reviewers continue to play critical roles in evaluating authenticity and the unique perspective an article provides to its readers especially in AI-generated research in surgery where the real-world implications of presented data are critical emphasis needs to be placed on informing stakeholders about the application and limitations of AI within operational procedures ensuring transparency and trust in the system The integration of AI algorithms in intraoperative image processing and analysis has led to a substantial enhancement in the quality and interpretability of surgical images have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in noise reduction thereby facilitating a clearer visualization of anatomical structures and pathological entities These improvements are instrumental in aiding surgeons to make more informed decisions and execute precise manipulations ultimately contributing to improved surgical outcomes Phase recognition describes the identification of various steps and phases of a procedure the identification of Calots’ triangle to achieve the critical view of safety is a surgical phase in a laparoscopic cholecystectomy Automating the identification and labeling of surgical phases offers the potential to reduce operative errors and enhance surgical training These clinical successes translate to tangible benefits such as reduced post-operative complications ultimately validating the integration of AI in surgical practices The incorporation of AI in intraoperative imaging is a testament to the relentless pursuit of precision and excellence in surgery and their applications in minimally invasive and robotic surgeries are poised to elevate the standards of surgical practice and pave the way for innovative research avenues promising a future where the synergy of technology and surgery reaches new heights Visual summary of data visualizations and analytics Usages of data visualization in surgery include analyzing surgical datasets Visual diagram of flow and feedback loop from data to predictions Predictive models can be monitored and continuously improved by tracking performance and validity they can be used to improve the performance of the existing algorithm or reveal underlying issues that may necessitate changes or additions to the original dataset performance metrics are collected to provide feedback to the model to for continuous improvement These examples illustrate the potential of predictive modeling and decision support systems in revolutionizing personalized surgery The integration of such systems into the surgical workflow ensures a synergistic approach to patient care where human judgment and AI-driven insights work in tandem The complexity and breadth of these ethical issues necessitate careful consideration and proactive strategies to ensure the appropriate development and use of AI in surgery Ethical considerations throughout predictive modeling stages Various opportunities for biases and other ethical considerations are depicted at multiple stages in the pathway from data to predictions This includes but is not limited to insufficient privacy and inadequate informed consent within the data collection incomplete and/or discriminatory data within the datasets a lack of transparency and algorithmic biases and finally perpetuation of biases that are reinforced by the model's predictions To address these ethical implications, comprehensive guidelines and regulations will need to be generated to govern the use of AI in surgery. Guidelines should encompass considerations for privacy and security, transparency, responsibility, accountability, and informed consent (69). Additionally, there is a need for strategies to mitigate bias and discrimination in AI systems, ensuring fairness and non-discrimination in surgical practices (69) Efforts to enhance technical robustness and ensure the reliability of AI technologies in surgery are crucial to address ethical concerns related to patient safety and well-being and integrating ethical considerations into education and policymaking the ethical challenges associated with the use of AI in surgery can be effectively managed AI has the potential to disrupt major aspects of our economy Previous technological disruptions have resulted in job loss in “blue collar” workers whereas AI will likely cause disruptions across our entire economy including white collar workers According to the ILO, tasks associated to specialist medical practitioners have a low risk of being automated (76) AI could take over or improve time consuming tasks such as documentation this would allow physicians to spend more time with their patients through providing procedures that improve health or counseling There have been several studies that predict operative risks associated with surgery. The American College of Surgeons has a surgical risk calculator with a focus on major operations and risks of morbidity and mortality (https://riskcalculator.facs.org/RiskCalculator/) It is particularly helpful in large operations in patients with several co-morbid conditions post-operative data from over 700 large medical centers Over 600 of these are in the US in 49 of 50 states and the remainder are in 11 additional countries This is based on a regression analysis of their large database A more sophisticated artificial intelligence-based approach, POTTER, calculates the risk of Emergency Surgery and is available as a smartphone application (77, 78). These data-rich programs have helped specific hospitals focus and improve quality. As a result, for many of our cases, such as an autologous breast reconstruction with a free flap (Figure 5) both the risks of complications and mortality are low For patients asking quality of life questions better methods to assess these risks and convey them to the patient would be very helpful future applications may help patients visualize how their breast reconstruction outcomes and scars may appear following a variety of reconstruction methods with AI-assisted visualization tools that show customized before-and-after images Having this available directly to patients would better educate them and could augment a surgical consultation Examples of a regression analysis national surgical quality improvement program (NSQIP) surgical risk calculator The left side depicts an example of the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) risk calculator by the American College of Surgeons predicting complications following autologous breast reconstruction with free flap outcomes-based program is designed to measure and improve the quality of surgical care by predicting data-driven outcomes based on patient characteristics and comorbidities On the right is the risk of an emergency surgery of a 66-year-old patient with some medical co-morbidities (POTTER) AI technology heralds a transformative era characterized by enhanced precision With its advanced data analytics and machine learning capabilities AI facilitates processing of complex images enabling surgeons to execute complex procedures with greater accuracy and confidence It serves as an extremely valuable tool in preoperative planning promising to elevate the standards of surgical practice AI's potential in surgical education and training is well-positioned to enrich learning experiences and objective skills assessment fostering a new generation of adept surgeons poised to reshape the future of surgery by offering smarter and it is not straightforward to interpret their behavior This complexity necessitates a cautious approach to integrating AI insights into surgical decision-making ensuring that AI complements rather than overrides the surgeon's expertise and clinical judgment As AI improves in fraud detection, malicious actors will increase their sophistication, in a sort of “arms race” (80) medicine and surgery have exhibited surprising discoveries that contradict the common narrative for instance; Helicobacter pylori for peptic ulcer disease and surgical implants that are no longer used Surgeons should ultimately approach new technology with a balance of open-mindedness and caution The ethical landscape of AI in surgery is multifaceted involving considerations of patient privacy As AI tools become more integrated into surgical workflows it is imperative to maintain a balance between embracing technological advancements and upholding the values of patient autonomy and ethical practice AI's role in surgery is poised to grow with ongoing research and development likely to yield more sophisticated and reliable applications must remain vigilant and proactive in addressing the challenges posed by these technologies By fostering an environment of ethical awareness and continuous learning the future of AI in surgery can be shaped into one that upholds the highest standards of patient care and fosters innovation while ensuring the ethical and judicious use of AI AI's potential to revolutionize surgery is significant yet its adoption must be tempered with a commitment to ethical practices and a continued respect for the surgical profession's humanistic aspects It is within this balanced framework that AI will find its most meaningful and sustainable role in the surgical field The author(s) declare that no financial support was received for the research the co-author PY has been employed by Frontiers Media SA TC and PY declared their affiliation with Frontiers they have not been involved in handling the peer review process The handling Editor states that the process met the standards of a fair and objective review The remaining authors declare that the research was conducted in the absence of any commercial or financial relationships that could be construed as a potential conflict of interest All claims expressed in this article are solely those of the authors and do not necessarily represent those of their affiliated organizations Any product that may be evaluated in this article or claim that may be made by its manufacturer is not guaranteed or endorsed by the publisher Artificial intelligence and big data in public health Crossref Full Text | Google Scholar Artificial intelligence in surgery: the future is now PubMed Abstract | Crossref Full Text | Google Scholar Clinical applications of artificial intelligence in robotic surgery 4.

She taught in CPS for 15 years. Follow her on Twitter @GinaCaneva Sabina Caneva earned her nanotechnology stripes working on two-dimensional materials and nanometre-sized pores for biosensing she reached the limits regarding the latter “Solid state nanopores can have arbitrary sizes making sensing of biomolecules less effective,” she says “And protein nanopores have exquisitely precise diameters but these are typically too small to allow the transport of macromolecules That is when she decided to add a DNA origami research line “We wanted to make smart nanopores that not only have well-defined channels but in which the channel size can be controlled on-demand,” she says  “This will make the pores size-selective which is important in transport and sorting applications It is impossible to achieve this kind of control and flexibility using solid state materials or proteins.” As an assistant professor in the Precision and Microsystems Engineering department Caneva has her own group of eight researchers The novelty of their DNA Origami research is that they create mechanically adaptable structures such as the pores and actuators mentioned earlier A variety of mechanical engineering principles is possible Inspired by real world mechanical structures they do behave differently when scaled down to the nano-level and operating in a liquid environment dominated by the random motion of molecules It takes a lot of multidisciplinary expertise to ensure both rigidity we also want them to emit light of a particular colour when they change shape so we can monitor their mechanics by looking at them under a microscope,” Caneva says “It takes a lot of multidisciplinary expertise to ensure the required rigidity and optical functionality.” It is therefore quite intentional that her group has an optical engineer “Everybody brings a flavour from their field and I really think it helps to solve the problems we face I think that putting a fresh spin on DNA origami by adding a mechanical engineering component makes my group interesting for researchers to join It gives them the opportunity to innovate at the intersection of several disciplines and contribute to building something never seen before.”   the size-adjustable nanopores are no longer a dream but a reality Though still in the proof-of-concept phase they may eventually be used for size-selective sensing and transport of biomolecules “We are currently measuring what can pass through the pores when open We also want to develop strategies for speeding up the shape changes that currently take minutes.” These types of nanopores are also poised to play a part in the gargantuan effort to build a synthetic cell which is a major research theme at TU Delft “Built entirely from the ground up from non-living molecules sense and adapt to its environment – all fundamental characteristics of life,” Caneva says “The goal for our nanopores is to function as the communication channels in the cell membrane – for letting nutrients in The nano-actuators her group is developing should be able to detect the minute amount of circulating tumour DNA that circulates in the blood stream of a cancer patient “Current technology for monitoring cancer progression after treatment is much too expensive to allow regular monitoring,” she says “A medical foundation contacted me to develop a high-throughput high-sensitivity device that is so cost-effective that it allows monthly screening With DNA origami you can make a million actuator copies in a single reaction.” The working principle is for the actuator to change its shape in response to a piece of such DNA binding to it “We’ll attach fluorescent probes to the origami allowing us to measure the miniscule shape change with light We expect that achieving single molecule resolution is within reach.” The optimal shape of the actuator is work in progress you can probably make anything you can imagine.” Mechanically-adaptable DNA origami nanoactuators are functionalized with fluorescent probes such that we can optically track when they have captured a specific molecule (circulating tumour DNA Vacancies Reading assistant BrowseAloud Intranet Student portal Donate Disclaimer Privacy & Security Northeast/North Central Nebraska’s most trusted Larry and Sherry Dinkel will be celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary We accept many different kinds of announcements Just click on the button below and submit a form Your browser is out of date and potentially vulnerable to security risks.We recommend switching to one of the following browsers: Account processing issue -

an ERC Starting Grant by the European Research Council Richard Norte’s research on new types of sail materials for interstellar travel will open the way to a whole new field of nano-technology while Sabina Caneva’s research focuses on the development of an ultrasensitive nanoscale protein scanner a fundamental step towards next-generation molecular diagnostics reflective sails that can be pushed with laser light to about one-fifth the speed of light Such sails could allow us to send satellites that reach the closest star outside our solar system in just 20 years – as opposed to 10,000 years One way to send low-mass space probes over distances of billions of kilometres is to use sails made of extremely lightweight and highly reflective materials A major challenge to designing these sails is that they must be ‘macro-scale’ in the length and width – say 4 x 4 m2 – but have ‘nano-scale’ thickness around one-thousandth of the thickness of a human hair This extreme-aspect-ratio nanotechnology is fundamentally different from any conventional nanotechnology developed over the last half century Such materials would allow very small space probes in the form of microchips with integrated cameras sensors and communication systems to be propelled over vast distances using powerful Earth-based lasers This sort of challenge requires a “new type of nano-technology” and Norte’s project will rethink how we design manufacture and manipulate objects with such extreme geometries Awarded an exceptional 2.1 million euros Starting Grant Norte’s EARS project aims to make new types of lightweight sail materials and then use lasers to levitate them while carrying objects that are 100,000 times more massive than anything levitated with coherent light to date These sail materials will offer unexplored avenues to study gravity materials science and light-matter interactions Read more about Norte's research “Our ability to decode the sequence of biomolecules is not only foundational for biology but also a cornerstone for next-generation molecular diagnostics” Reading bio-molecular signatures and understanding their role in health and disease is one of the greatest scientific challenges in genome and proteome biology Yet complete analysis of the sequence of individual proteins expressed at the cellular level is still beyond our current technology as are next-generation techniques that can precisely manipulate these nanoscale compounds The goal of Caneva’s SIMPHONICS project is to develop a high-resolution high-throughput platform combining solid-state nanopore transport measurements spatially modulated acoustic wavefields and single-molecule fluorescence time-traces to confine scan and fingerprint proteins non-invasively and on a massively parallel scale SIMPHONICS will begin a new research line at 3mE that uniquely applies principles and concepts from nanopore biophysics nanophotonics and acoustofluidics with the potential to

Heights: "GEEVUM," which meant "give 'em hell" in Hawaiian Hersey band alumni still use the affectionate term but last week they used it to reminisce about the school's first band director who gave them their rallying cry who started the band program in 1968 and held the position for 10 years "What Don accomplished in high school music remains unsurpassed even today," says Peter Titre his band brought home over 100 first place awards." Caneva organized the band program at Hersey after teaching in Lockport for 12 years He earned his bachelor's degree in music education at De Paul University and master of arts degree at the University of Hawaii the Hersey band was the first Illinois band in 50 years to march in the Tournament of Roses Parade in Pasadena They also marched in the Cotton Bowl parade in Dallas in the Orange Bowl parade in Miami and the for the College All-Star game in Chicago Caneva also invited celebrity guest conductors and performance artists to work with Hersey students "Don established excellence in the Hersey band program from the day the school opened," says Scott Casagrande "I feel a responsibility to build upon Don's legacy and to continue those expectations he established." Joe DeFano still cherishes a photo of him presenting a Mount Prospect fire chief hat to Fiedler when he conducted the band and he vividly remembers all of the practicing that went into that performance "What a great lesson in life it was at a young age to be pushed to your limits," DeFano says "I have used some of his motivating skills through my sales career and prominently displayed the words we learned from Don: 'Results Caneva left Hersey in 1978 to accept a job as a band music editor for a publishing company in San Diego One year later he formed the "World of Music" festivals orchestras and choirs throughout the country Hersey symphonic band members played under Mr Caneva when he served as a guest conductor at the Midwest International Band and Orchestra Clinic held in Chicago It was the first time Hersey's band had played at the clinic which draws thousands of music educators from around world "He used music as a tool to create leaders and three decades later we are still sharing stories of his impact," says Bob Kaspar Caneva's former students will gather at 7 p.m If you are the site owner (or you manage this site), please whitelist your IP or if you think this block is an error please open a support ticket and make sure to include the block details (displayed in the box below) so we can assist you in troubleshooting the issue is for sale for the first time in 47 years with expectations it could snare $7.5 million CHAPEL St icon the Lucky Coq is up for sale The popular live entertainment and $4 pizza venue was a regular pre-fame haunt for rock band Jet After almost 50 years owned by the Caneva family the corner pub is expected to change hands for more than $7.5 million Jon Caneva, who ran the pub as the Duke of Windsor from 1991 to 2005 at 179 Chapel St, Windsor said while it had been a great experience to own and operate the pub now was the right time for them to call last drinks on their ownership “We take great pride in the fact that Jet were one of the bands we had there regularly before they became famous,” Mr Caneva said His son became the bands manager as their fortunes took off The Lucky Coq has one of the more enviable locations along Chapel St at the bustling intersection of High St MORE: Kew beauty inspired by US architect great Chance to own a London mansion for $23 The Block winners seek tenant for new pad Is this the luckiest home of the year?
