Community Celebrates Rosenberg Campus Green
On Spirit Day, a day traditionally reserved for orange and black, the
McDonogh community celebrated the dedication of the Rosenberg Campus
Green—an open, grassy area that unites the McDonogh campus. On Friday,
November 7, the campus was humming with excitement as the community
celebrated the link that joins the major pieces of McDonogh’s campus master
plan.
Headmaster Charlie Britton began the ceremony by thanking Henry
Rosenberg, Jr. ‘48 for making the campus green a reality. “Mr. Rosenberg’s
devotion to this school runs deep, and he epitomizes McDonogh spirit,” Britton
said. “He shows his McDonogh pride whenever he has the opportunity, and he
gives back to the school because he believes McDonogh helped him become the
man he is today. That is true McDonogh spirit.”
The Rosenberg Campus Green connects the more established parts of
campus with the recently opened Naylor Building and Edward St. John
Student Center, and it creates a vista to the John McDonogh Stadium. Arthur
Adler ’78, President of the Board of Trustees, explained that the area not only
serves as the hub of campus, it is intended to be a place to hang out and play as
well. The Rosenberg Campus Green also includes Memorial Court, which is being
refurbished and will be rededicated for Memorial Day 2015.
Mr. Rosenberg, who was thrilled that the entire school community was
present for the dedication, said of the green, “It is more beautiful than I ever
imagined. I think that the only thing that will make it better is seeing you all out
here having fun, hanging out with friends, and hopefully doing a little studying,
too!”
He credited McDonogh for his successful career saying, “My teachers not
only gave me knowledge, they boosted my self-confidence and gave me the
foundation I needed to go out and pursue my dreams. The truth is, McDonogh
set me up for the successes I have experienced in my life.”
Before the ceremony ended, the crowd of more than 1,500 pulled out
commemorative orange kazoos and played “Happy Birthday” to Mr.
Rosenberg, who was also celebrating his 85th birthday. Then, Mr. Rosenberg and
his wife had the honor of riding in the first golf cart in the annual Spirit Parade.
