TJ Grad’s Team Wins MIT 100K Competition Every year, MIT students and graduates compete for the prestigious MIT $100K Entrepreneurship Contest’s grand prize, $100,000 in business capital. This year, out of a record 215 teams, the winner was a team founded by TJ ’10 alum and MIT computer science major Thomas Georgiou and three other MIT students. The same work gained the team entrance to Y Combinator, a Silicon Valley accelerator that offers $150,000 to every start-up admitted, so the foursome took their winnings and moved to Palo Alto, where they spent the first half of the summer working feverishly toward the product’s July 12th commercial debut. Thomas (far left), who rows for MIT’s crew team and had won previous school-wide awards for his programming talents, is the company’s Head of Mobile and Infrastructure; Liyan Chang (second from left) is Head of Product and User Experience; Brett van Zuiden (second from right) is the company’s CEO and Head of Web Engineering; and Anand Dass (far right) is CFO and Head of Sales. The company already has 2,000 customers and is hiring new talent. Thomas credits TJ’s exceptional computer science faculty with teaching him valuable lessons in real-world programming and attributes much of his current knowhow to his experience as a TJ student systems administrator. The accomplished programmer and budding entrepreneur has these words of wisdom for TJ students: “You build a lot of cool stuff, but once you do, be sure to tell the world about it. You never know who might be interested in what you built.” TJPARTNERSHIPFUND.ORG SUPPORT TJ: IT’S WORTH IT!& PAGE 1 ! THOMAS JEFFERSON PARTNERSHIP FUND& BACK-TO-SCHOOL 2012 ALUMNI SHARE EXPERIENCES, CAREERS AT TJSTAR & The tjSTAR research symposium has really caught on with TJ alumni. This year marked the first time that the symposium featured not one, but two “Words of Wisdom from TJ Alumni” panels, whose guests ran the gamut from doctors and lawyers to researchers and engineers, and from the Class of ’89 to the Class of ’07. Several alumni also delivered individual presentations, giving interested students the inside scoop on their chosen careers along with plenty of advice. Three of these are featured below. & Josh Waterfall, Ph.D., TJ ’97, who happens to be the son of just-retired English teacher Milde Waterfall, spoke about his career path and the research he’s doing in the field of cancer genomics at the National Institutes of Health. After studying physics and applied math at William and Mary, Dr. Waterfall did his graduate and post-graduate work at Cornell in computational modeling and is currently an NIH research fellow. He spoke about one NIH project where he is studying biomarkers to identify which patients will respond to targeted therapies, and another where he is sequencing the genomes of archived bone cancer specimens. He also gave advice on summer internships and the graduate and post-graduate application process, while remarking upon the growing interdisciplinary nature of scientific research. “Do lab work as early as possible.” “Email me. I’m happy to talk to you about your tech projects, about anything.” “Pursue an internship during college. You can see if you like the work and can make valuable connections.” TJPARTNERSHIPFUND.ORG ! Joe Munchak, Ph.D., TJ ’02, returning for his second tjSTAR appearance, talked about his current work at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center where he is designing computer algorithms for the GPM (Global Precipitation Measurement) satellite slated for launch in 2014. He gave students a fascinating overview of NASA’s global weather satellites, what kinds of data each gathers, and how that data is used. Following his talk last year, Dr. Munchak has become an invaluable resource for TJ’s Geosystems classes, according to Geosystems teacher Jim Jarvis, who stopped by to thank him: “He checks what we’re doing and points us to the newest and best data. We rely on specialists like Dr. Munchak to keep us current,” he said. & Jason Hintz Llopis, TJ ’89, is a Producer with Disney Research, a division of the Walt Disney Company with labs at major research universities and in the Los Angeles area. Mr. Hintz Llopis told the auditorium audience about various current research projects, including: “touche,” a sensor that can turn your iPod on or its volume up simply by sensing simple movements (or turn your TV off when you fall asleep while watching it); “one world cinema,” which is bringing the movie theater experience to remote parts of the developing world; and behavioral research that aims to alleviate crowding at popular theme park attractions. There was something for everyone in this entertaining talk, not to mention free pens for correct answers to Disney trivia questions. SUPPORT TJ: IT’S WORTH IT!& PAGE 2 ! THOMAS JEFFERSON PARTNERSHIP FUND& BACK-TO-SCHOOL 2012 NSF DIRECTOR DELIVERS TJSTAR KEYNOTE ADDRESS & TJ was very fortunate to have Dr. Subra Suresh, Director of the National Science Foundation (NSF), as our tjSTAR keynote speaker. As Dr. Suresh explained, NSF was founded in 1950 on the premise that funding basic research would lead to innovation, which in turn would ensure the country’s prosperity and national security. The history of NSF has borne NSF Director to TJ students: out that premise. & & & In the 1960’s, NSF funded GPS research, which is now a technology we You are “the future scientists all depend on. In 1995, NSF supported two Stanford students researching and engineers, future better Internet search techniques, the result of which was Google Inc. In leaders” and “future 1999, the NSF supported nanotechnology research, and there are now 180 economic engine of this companies working in that area. And the list goes on. country.” & Dr. Suresh is particularly excited about the potential for “citizen science,” whereby students and others contribute to data collection and analysis from their home computers. He also told students in response to an audience question that the issue of open access to databases and publications is “very much on the minds of the senior leadership team at NSF.” His topical and interesting address, which opened and closed with specific reference to the role he expects TJ students to play in the country’s future, was the perfect end to a special day at TJ. A 5-minute montage of the day’s events can be found at this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1eCcDCYmS6Qandfeature=youtu.be PARTNERSHIP FUND AWARDS DINNER CELEBRATES TJ STARS The day after the Symposium, the Partnership Fund held its annual Awards Dinner at Vienna’s Westwood Country Club. The Partnership Fund invited all of the Lab Directors, who in turn were each asked to invite a senior from their research lab. Three of those students spoke about their research and thanked the PF for providing the tools necessary to make that research possible. The evening’s keynote speaker, former astronaut and Orbital Sciences Senior Vice President, Frank Culbertson (at right), mesmerized the audience with his first-hand accounts of Shuttle launches, days spent on the International Space Station, and the stories behind the amazing photographs from space that he showed us, including those he took of the DC area on 9/11. The PF recognized two individuals with “Tommy Awards,” named in honor of Mr. Jefferson and given in recognition of outstanding commitment to advancing excellence in education. The first was given to Dr. Patrick Gillevet, Professor of Environmental Science & Policy at George Mason University, for his exceptional service as mentor and advisor to multiple classes of TJ students (pictured below, with Dr. Evan Glazer, TJ Principal, on left). Lisa Wu, Oceanography Lab Director, gave a heartfelt tribute that included thanks and best wishes from several former Gillevet mentees. The PF’s own Mark Skolnik was also awarded a “Tommy” for his three years as Chairman of the Board of the Partnership Fund, a period of tremendous growth in giving and participation as well as the beginning of an exciting new chapter in TJ’s history. Everyone at the PF and the School is happy to hear that Mark will remain actively involved with the PF. The crowd was treated to the latest TJ 2.0 Capital Campaign news: Northrop Grumman’s plan to give $250,000 over five years, and the intention of TJ’s first graduating class, the Class of ’89, to raise $890,000 toward the renovation. At that time, Dr. Glazer asked his fiancee, Jennifer Palazzolo, to accompany him as he announced their pledge to donate $5,000 a year to the Capital Campaign. The exceptional personal commitment that our Principal has made to the future welfare of the School is something that should inspire all of us. TJPARTNERSHIPFUND.ORG SUPPORT TJ: IT’S WORTH IT!& PAGE 3 ! THOMAS JEFFERSON PARTNERSHIP FUND& BACK-TO-SCHOOL 2012 ALUMNI SPEAKER SERIES KICKS OFF WITH TJ ’95 GEOSCIENCES PROFESSOR & “Part of understanding the Earth’s future lies in the ocean depths,” said Dr. Mea Cook, TJ ’95, to more than thirty-five TJ students, parents, and alumni at the inaugural event of TJ Alumni Association’s Speaker Series this past May. As an assistant professor of Geosciences at Williams College, Mea studies deep-sea sediments, which she uses to reconstruct climate and ocean circulation from the past. “The climate system is linked to the ocean and its effects on patterns of water circulation, heat exchange, and carbon dioxide changes in the atmosphere,” she continued. & Mea, who obtained her undergraduate degree at Princeton and her doctorate at MIT, drew on her research career in oceanography and the study of prehistoric climate changes, known as paleoceanography, to discuss how the ocean influences greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, in the atmosphere and how we may gain a better understanding of what the changes in our current climate mean. Some of Mea’s findings drew strong reactions from the audience. In response to Mea’s prediction that the impact of current human emissions may be the significant reduction of coral reefs in 60 years, Ajay Batra, TJ ’95, said, “As an avid scuba diver, that struck me hard and has encouraged me to consider taking action to protect the reefs for our children and their children to see.” & The TJ Alumni Speaker Series aims to bring alumni, parents and students together for alumni-led discussions of contemporary topics, with an emphasis on STEM fields. “TJ alumni are emerging experts in their fields, and the TJ Alumni Speaker Series provides them an opportunity to share those important contributions with their fellow peers and determined TJ students,” said Sonal Goda, TJ ’95, President of the TJ Alumni Association. “It’s important that we are able to provide forums like this and connect TJ alumni with each other, as well as with the bright leaders of tomorrow studying at TJ today.” & “I really appreciated the perspective of a TJ alum,” said Rachel Marzen, TJ ’11. “I see where TJ prepared others in a science I’m interested in, paleoclimate science, and what we could possibly do after we graduate.” & The Thomas Jefferson Alumni Association plans to continue hosting alumni speakers throughout the year. For more information about this and other alumni activities, see the alumni page of our website, tjpartnershipfund.org . Article submitted by Michelle Roby, TJ ’93 EXXONMOBIL TREATS TJ’S “CRACKERJACK” FACULTY & STAFF & “As we entered the stadium, we heard the last notes of the ‘Star Spangled Banner’ wafting through the air. The stadium roared to life as the Nats took to the field. Magic began moments into the game with two back-toback home runs,” wrote Derinda Weber of TJ’s Finance Office, who, along with hundreds of TJ faculty, staff, and their friends and families, was treated to a sell-out Nats game in early June. & For the second year in a row, ExxonMobil generously donated 480 tickets to the School. “TJ faculty, family, and friends were in a wonderful section of the stadium; a great location to watch the game, relax, and socialize,” Ms. Weber gushed. The Partnership Fund is delighted when our corporate partners remember our hard-working faculty and staff. Caps off to Exxon! TJPARTNERSHIPFUND.ORG SUPPORT TJ: IT’S WORTH IT!& PAGE 4 ! THOMAS JEFFERSON PARTNERSHIP FUND& BACK-TO-SCHOOL 2012 NORTHROP GRUMMAN, EXXONMOBIL DONATIONS EXPAND SUMMER TECH INSTITUTE’S REACH & TJ’s Summer Middle School Tech Institute has long been known as a great STEM camp. Its diverse offerings feature “Cool Chemistry,” “Dissection Connection,” “Rocket Man,” and “Web Page Design,” among many others, and the faculty -- which this summer includes ten “regular season” TJ teachers -- is terrific. Rusty Hodges, Middle School Tech Institute Coordinator, noted that kids were begging him to add another week to their schedule so they could take additional classes recommended by friends. Unfortunately for the kids, the entire summer’s worth of classes had already been sold out for weeks. (A July 27th Washington Post’s Fairfax Edition article about the Tech Institute can be found at www.fairfaxtimes.com .) & In past years, large numbers of interested area kids were simply unable to attend the Tech Institute at all because the fees and transportation costs of approximately $250/ week were prohibitive for many families. In 2011, Northrop Grumman changed that equation with a very generous $25,000 donation, which enabled 100 students to attend; this year, the company repeated that donation. In “Dissection Connection,” kids began the week taking apart owl pellets, moved onto squid dissection, and on Friday held their culminating exercise, dissecting and then comparing a sheep heart with a pig’s. & Upon hearing that there would be room this summer for more students, ExxonMobil employees arranged to direct all funds raised from this year’s annual employee charity golf tournament toward Middle School Tech Institute scholarships. This excellent idea allowed another 30 scholarship students to attend. & Your company too can “Send a Kid to Camp TJ” by donating toward Summer Middle School Tech Institute scholarships. Corporations and individuals are also invited to submit proposals for courses they would design and teach. For more information, contact Rachael Estep, Partnership Fund Development Manager, at [email protected] or 703.750.8317. “Web Page Design” students designed their own web pages for real or imagined businesses. In “Rocket Man,” kids designed, built, and tested their own rockets. Then on Friday, rocket after rocket shot straight into the air and parachuted down gently onto the football practice field.

THOMAS JEFFERSON PARTNERSHIP FUND& BACK-TO-SCHOOL 2012 GOOGLE SPONSORS COMPUTER SCIENCE TEACHER TRAINING WORKSHOP & Thanks to a $25,000 grant from Google Inc., TJ’s computer science faculty hosted a week-long training workshop at the end of June for teachers from several local jurisdictions, including a large contingent of DC public school teachers. Google was particularly interested in including teachers from the DC public schools because as of the 2011-2012 school year, there were no computer science courses available to students in that school system. & Using a computer science text written by our own Dr. Shane Torbert (pictured), Applied Computer Science (Springer 2012), the class equipped teachers to present a useful introductory programming course that would capture the imagination of, and be accessible to, a wide range of students. The book’s instructional method, which is the same method used at TJ, engages students by using such visuals as interactive graphics and image files and keeps them engaged by leveraging the computer’s ability to provide immediate feedback. & Workshop participants appreciated the opportunity to study with TJ’s renowned faculty; some even came back to observe our summer Computer Science course in action. & "The CS workshop at TJHSST this week has been awesome,” said Jeff Elkner, of the Arlington Career Center. He added, “. . . It’s much more about computational thinking and how to use computer science to solve meaningful problems than it is about any particular programming language.” & The Partnership Fund’s Corporate Advisory Board is currently seeking sponsorships for additional workshops on STEM topics of interest to our corporate partners. We commend TJ’s remarkable faculty for their willingness to share their expertise with area teachers as part of the School’s commitment to serve as a leading STEM education resource for the region. PF HUMANITIES PURCHASE A CLEAR WINNER & The teacher places the book under the document camera, and voila . . . The book’s text and artwork are displayed for all to see. TJPARTNERSHIPFUND.ORG The Partnership Fund has always understood that important equipment comes in many shapes and sizes, and not every item need be used for research. The latest purchase for the Humanities Department is a perfect example. Donations to the PF’s “Enrichment Fund,” the fund earmarked for non-lab use, have made possible the $5,450 purchase of ten document cameras, wonderful devices that enable clear, readable displays of text, artwork, photos, notes, transparencies, and more. & In science classes where the devices were already in use this past school year, students report that transparencies are much clearer since the old overhead projector was replaced by the document camera. “I can finally see the board without having to move to the front row,” said one delighted student. Now those benefits will be felt throughout TJ’s second floor as well. SUPPORT TJ: IT’S WORTH IT!& & With its flexible gooseneck, features that allow it to double as a camera, scanner, and webcam, its ability to display video, and its portability, the document camera is a revolutionary advance over the bulky, low-tech overhead projectors that TJ parents may recall from their high-school days. & Dr. Denise Castaldo, Humanities Division Manager and English Chair, stated, “We’re very grateful to the Partnership Fund for providing us with portable, lightweight document cameras. Teachers will be able to sign them out as needed and can travel from classroom to classroom with them. While they have a number of uses, document cameras will be particularly helpful to us when teaching writing, as students and teacher can write, revise, and annotate on the spot and then share that work with the entire class.” PAGE 6 !
