Congrats to Stacy Maceda HWS '19 for earning the Dean James Henderson '75 Award of Merit, given to a student of color who embodies the spirit of Dean Henderson and his love of learning and athletics. What a honor and a terrific way to cap a collegiate career! #changingthegame
We are proud to have placed 64% of our team members in colleges ranked in the top two selectivity ties according to Barron's. The recent admissions scandal is a reminder that programs like CitySquash can help to level the playing field in the face of structural inequities.
When students with already well-to-do parents get into an elite college in the US, it doesn't really impact their future earnings.
But it makes a large difference for students from racial minorities and from families with less educational credentials: nytimes.com/2019/03/15/upsho…
With a little help from his teammates, Judah wishes his mentor @Chris_R_Hanson good luck at the upcoming @ToCSquash! #squashislife #mentorship

Doug Burbank H'98, P'11 cheered on Andreina Benedith '14 in NYC last night when she spoke to @CitySquash supporters about being the 1st in her family to graduate college. The @FandMCollege alum (& program model, see photo) also caught up with former squash coach JP Burlington. 💚

Diligence, passion and consistency. The motto of @CitySquash alum Andreina. I am the first college graduate in my family and I will not be the last.
