RECYCLINGREMINDERS

The township solid wast con-tract brings the opportunity torecycle at no additional charge.

As a reminder, residents canrecycle the following householditems:

» plastic bottles and jugs(please flatten and reattach thelid);

» cartons;» glass bottles and jars (any

color);» aluminum cans;» steel cans;» empty aerosol cans (with

lids and tips removed);» paperboard (cereal boxes,

12-pack containers, etc.);» cardboard;» a variety of paper products,

including: office paper, newspa-per and magazines, junk mailand envelopes (with or withoutwindows), telephone books andpaper grocery bags.

Recyclables should be placedinto carts loose and not con-tained in plastic bags.

Officials in two local town-ships say a new garbage pickupcontract is saving most resi-dents money and it’s also boost-ing recycling numbers.

Colerain, Springfield andRoss townships began a con-tract with Rumpke to pick upresidential garbage in the com-munities in April.

Colerain Township saw an al-most 197 percent jump from theprevious April. In April 2015,Colerain Township residents re-cycled 87.66 tons of material. InApril, 2016, Colerain Townshipresidents recycled 260.12 tonsof material. The trend con-tinued in May, when ColerainTownship resident recycling in-creased 205 percent over theMay 2015 numbers.

In 2015, Colerain Township’srecycling rate was 4.71 percentand residents recycled 982.97tons of material for the year.

Recycling increases are alsooccurring in Springfield Town-ship, which had a 127 percent

Robots could make a difference in lo-cal middle schoolers’ understanding ofmath.

The Northwest Local School Districtis in line to receive one of 23 Straight AFund grants from the the state of Ohio,and plans to use its $263,000 grant for aninnovative intervention that uses C-STEM, a combination of computing-sci-ence technology, engineering and math-ematics, to improve middle schoolers’achievement in math.

Darrell Yater, Northwest’s assistantsuperindent of curriculum, says a teamled by Leslie Silbernagel, curriculum su-pervisor for the district, wrote a grantthat will replace the district’s currentmath intervention program with one thatuses lessons using computer program-ming and robotics. Yater says studentswill learn hands-on, giving meaning tothe algebra concepts they will learn inthe class.

“Projects allow students to see real-

life applications of mathematics con-cepts as well as help students developcrititical thinking and problem-solvingskills, all while preparing students to becollege- and career-ready,” he said.

Robots are fun, so learning to pro-

gram them may translate to math beingfun, as well.

The district is working with HarryCheng, a professor in the Department ofMechanical and Aerospace Engineeringat the University of California, Davis,and director of the UC Davis Center forIntegrated Computing and STEM Edu-cation, to help with professional develop-ment, preparing teachers for the newprogram.

Cheng has been conducting researchfor more than 10 years on how to usecomputing – the process of solving prob-lems by designing and writing computerprograms – to help students learn sci-ence, technology, engineering and math.He says computer science can help stu-dents do better at math, particularly al-gebra, which is often referred to as a“gatekeeper” that determines whether astudent succeeds in high school and be-yond.

The disrict’s C-STEM program willstart in the coming school year and is anelective that replaces math interventionfor students in grades six, seven and

eight at all three of the district’s middleschools. Yater said if the program provessuccessful, the district could decide toadd other C-STEM courses, such as Al-gebra I with Computing into the curricu-lum at both high schools, as well.

In addition to implementing the C-STEM program, math and special educa-tion teachers from the district will havethe opportunity to participate in freeprofessional development directly relat-ed to improving core math instructionthrough a partnership with Xavier Uni-versity. Three courses which are part ofXU’s new math specialist endorsement,will be offered to up to 25 teachers fromthe district at no cost.

Debra Kuchey, associate professor atXU will be taking the C-STEM trainingand assessing the implementation of theprogram in the participants’s class-rooms. The Hamilton County Education-al Service Center will have consultantsincluded in the training to allow the cen-ter to promote understanding of C-

STEM countywide.District officials were

excited about receivingthe grant. SuperintendentTodd Bowling says thecompetition is fierce:there were 141 grant ap-plications representing404 schools received inthis round of funding. Atotal of 23 grants repre-senting 90 schools wererecommended for $14.8million in funding by theStraight A Fund Govern-ing Board. Each grant ap-

plication underwent re-view by independent scor-ers for both fiscal sustain-ability and to determine ifproposals are innovativeand have substantial val-ue and lasting impact be-fore being recommendedby the governing board.

Ohio Gov. John R. Kas-ich created the Straight AFund in 2013, to help Ohioschools launch creativenew ideas for improvingeducation. The state bud-get signed last summer in-cluded $30 million for atwo-year continuation ofthe grant program. TheNorthwest Local SchoolDistrict was the only

Hamilton County districtto receive funding in thisround of Straight Agrants.

The Straight A FundGoverning Board is com-prised of nine members,including the state super-intendent of public in-struction, four membersappointed by the gover-nor, two members ap-pointed by the speaker ofthe House of Representa-tives and two membersappointed by the presi-dent of the Senate.

The recommendationsgo to the Ohio ControllingBoard for final approvalon July 25.

jump in recycling inApril. Springfield Town-ship residents recycled73.48 tons of material in2015. In May, there wasalmost a 194 percent in-crease over 2015 ton-nage, with 197.89 tons re-cycled in 2016.

In 2015, SpringfieldTownship’s recyclingrate was 8.18 percent andresidents recycled954.83 tons of material.

Michelle Balz, assis-tant solid waste managerfor the Hamilton CountyRecycling and SolidWaste District, which is adivision of the Depart-ment of EnvironmentalServices, says it’s a bigdeal to see these in-creases in two of thecounty’s larger town-ships.

“First of all, we seethose environmental re-sources recycled backinto the economy,” shesaid. “So we don’t have touse virgin resources. Italso reduces the energyused and pollutioncaused by processingthose virgin resources.

Balz says the increasein recycling also has a di-rect financial benefit tothe townships, as theResidential RecyclingIncentive grants given tothe communities eachyear is based on howmuch material the com-munity recycles.

Recycling divertswaste from the Rumpkelandfill, where most ofthe waste in the county is

disposed of, prolongingthe life of the landfill.

Frank Birkenhauer,Colerain Township assis-tant administrator, saysthe program providessavings for most resi-dents.

There have been resi-dent complaints becausethe contract did not in-clude an opt-out clause.Some residents havecome to meetings com-plaining they want tochoose their own gar-bage handler.

Others complainedthat they are now forcedto pay for garbage ser-vices they didn’t need be-fore.

Some senior citizenssend their garbage,which is minimal, homewith their children. Cole-rain Township Adminis-trator Jim Rowan saysgarbage handlers con-sider those arrange-ments theft: the serviceis being provided formore than one householdand the company is re-ceiving payment for one.

The contract is a five-year agreement. Rowansaid an opt-out clausecould have meant therate may not have beenas low.

“We did this to pro-vide savings for town-ship residents to addressthe problem of sur-charges,” he said.

He added that resi-dents were complainingabout fuel surchargesadded to their bills bywaste haulers lookingfor ways to pass the costof doing business on tocustomers.

Birkenhauer says the

increase in recyclingmeans the townshipshould receive a largerincentive grant this year.In past years, the town-ship has used moneyfrom the incentive grantto pay for its RecyclingDay event for townshipresidents.

Springfield Townshipassistant AdministratorChris Gilbert agreed thatan opt-out would likelyhave driven up the cost.

“The waste haulingcompanies would havehad to guess at how manypeople would use the ser-vice, and you lost theeconomies of scale with asmaller number of par-ticipants,” he said.

Gilbert says the con-tract has resulted in sav-ings for the majority ofresidents and he sees thecontract as a good thingfor residents and thetownship.

“I think all communi-ties want to be environ-mentally sensitive,” hesaid.

Gilbert says Spring-field Township uses itsrecycling incentivegrant money to buyitems that contain recy-cled materials, such ascopy paper.

“Anything with recy-cled material that meetsthe grant criteria, mean-ing we can save some ofour resources,” he said.

GREEN TWP. – Motor-ists who frequently travelHarrison Avenue will seeorange construction bar-rels pop up along the cor-ridor this summer.

Green Township is ad-vertising for bids for aroad improvement pro-ject in front of the Harri-son Greene retail centernear the intersection ofHarrison Avenue andWestwood Northern Bou-levard.

Adam Goetzman, thetownship’s assistant ad-

ministrator and directorof planning and develop-ment, said the estimated$1.2 million project willwiden the section of Har-rison Avenue stretchingfrom the intersection ofHarrison, Lee Court andWestwood Northern Bou-levard to a point approxi-mately 1,000 feet west ofthe intersection.

The widening willmake room for a center,left-turn lane on HarrisonAvenue into the HarrisonGreene entrance. Driverstraveling westbound onHarrison will be able touse the left turn lane to en-

ter the retail and diningcenter, while those head-ing eastbound will be ableto make a right turn intothe development using adeceleration lane, he said.Harrison Greene is hometo a Graeter’s ice creamshop, Dewey’s Pizza, FirstWatch cafe and Tom +Chee.

“We’re also adding awestbound left-turn laneat the Harrison Avenueand Westwood Northernintersection to providebetter ingress to LeeCourt, which has a sec-ondary access point to theHarrison Greene shop-ping center,” Goetzmansaid.

Additionally, he saidthe existing dedicatedleft-turn lane from Harri-son Avenue to WestwoodNorthern Boulevard willbe extended as part of theproject. The traffic signalat the intersection willalso be upgraded to pro-vide left-turn signaliza-tion, he said.

Goetzman says con-struction should start latethis summer and may bealmost finished by the endof the year, except for thefinal pavement. That mayhave to happen in thespring of next year, de-pending on weather.

Twin Towers SeniorLiving Community dedi-cated its newly renovatedchapel, thanks to the gen-erosity of resident Gene-vieve Smith and the Col-lege Hill community.

Smith donated stock to-taling $192,000 in thename of her family with amatching gift of $165,000from an anonymous Col-lege Hill communitymember and other indi-vidual donations to reachthe renovation campaigngoal of $500,000.

Faith has alwaysplayed an important rolein Genevieve Smith’s life.As a young girl she attend-ed the Evangelical UnitedBrethren Church in Clif-ton, which later becamethe Clifton United Meth-odist Church. Armed witha bachelor’s degree inbusiness administrationfrom the University ofCincinnati, Smith beganher civil service careerwith the Army Air Forceduring World War II as astatistician. After the war,she transferred to OakRidge, Tennessee, and lat-er to Wright-Patterson

Air Force Base as part ofthe Logistics Division towork in their engine andmissile programs.

She retired from thegovernment and moved toTwin Towers in 2000.

While playing pianoand singing with theBelles and Beaux’s choirand attending church ser-vices at TwinTowers, shenoticed the poor conditionof the chapel which ledher to generously providethe leading gift for theT-win Towers chapel reno-vation project. Thanks tothe renovation, which be-gan in January 2016, allresidents throughout theTwin Towers campus cannow see, hear and partici-pate in worship services.The improvements pro-vide better flexibility andcomfort with individualchairs, new heating andair conditioning, bettersound with new audiovi-sual equipment (which isalso broadcast on TwinTowers’ closed-circuitTV), a private familyroom, and a renovatedbalcony with a Bible studyroom.

I knew better, really. I couldn’tresist picking day lilies (tiger lilies)growing along my old country road tomake a batch of day lily wine. Theflowers bordered the road, so I didn’teven think to put any insect spray onmy legs.

Wearing shorts, I delved prettydeep into the flower patch and cameaway with a big basket full of beauti-ful orange day lily petals.

I made a “mash” of the petals witha bit of yeast, sugar, water and golden raisins.This was to sit for three days before strain-ing. By the time the three days were up, thechiggers decided to come out from hiding.Big itchy welts from my waist down. Lessonlearned!

Check out the photos of this winemaking process on my Abouteating.comsite. Let me know if you want the recipe,too.

When I walked back and saw that theLacinato kale in the garden was readyfor harvesting, I picked a bunch and dugsome new potatoes. I used both in thisdelicious clone of Olive Garden’s ZuppaToscana that I made for supper.

I wanted to share an alcohol free va-nilla extract, so that recipe is here, too.

Rita Nader Heikenfeld is an herbalist,educator, Jungle Jim’s Eastgate culinary pro-fessional and author. Find her blog online atAbouteating.com. Email her [email protected] with “Rita’s kitch-en” in the subject line.

Rita’s Zuppa Toscana like Olive Garden

You can use sweet Italian sausage and add red pepper flakes totaste if you want. Note the dry mashed potato flakes in the recipe. I usethese as a thickener and nutrient booster in this type of soup, or anycreamy soup. It’s my secret ingredient to thick and rich soups.

This is a to-taste recipe. Hard to measure exactly.

1 pound hot Italian sausage8-12 slices bacon, cut up into 1/2” pieces (I used thick sliced)1 large onion, diced (a good 2 cups)1 heaping tablespoon garlic, minced8 cups low sodium chicken broth5 generous cups sliced potatoes, peeled or notAs much kale as you like (I used several handfuls chopped)Salt and pepper to tasteDry mashed potato flakes (optional)Parmesan cheese for garnish

Cook sausage until done. Drain and set aside. In same pot, cookbacon and leave drippings. Cook onion garlic in the drippings until on-ions are translucent. This won’t take long. Add back sausage and bacon.Add broth and potatoes. Bring to a boil, lower to a gentle boil and cookuntil potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes. Stir in cream and heatthrough. Stir in kale and cook a bit. Adjust seasonings. If you think thesoup is too thin, start adding a little bit of dry mashed potato flakes.Sprinkle with cheese and serve. Serves 8-10.

Tip from Rita’s garden: good for you kaleKale is nutrient dense with lots of fiber, calcium, iron and vitamins.

Lacinato, or alligator kale as the kids call it, is more mild in flavor thanregular kale.

Homemade alcohol free vanilla extract

For the Eastgate reader who needed this. A good substitute forextract made with alcohol, though I will say, depending upon what youuse it in, the alcohol content in regular extract can be minimal, if that.Now this does take patience, but any homemade extract takes a longtime to infuse.

7-8 vanilla bean podsSeveral dashes salt1 cup distilled water or alcohol free vegetable glycerin

First, pound the whole vanilla beans flat. Then slit in 2 and open thepods. This releases the little seeds into the water. Put pods into a steril-ized bottle (you can run it through the dishwasher) and add water. Putlid on. Shake. Store in frig and shake it every day for a month. After that,leave it in the frig. another month, and shake it whenever you thinkabout it, several times a week. Extract will be ready in 2 months, but isbest the longer you keep it in the frig. This keeps for a good threemonths in the frig or up to a year frozen.

Tip from Rita’s kitchenVegetable glycerin makes a thicker extract. Some health food and

drug stores carry it, or buy it online.

July 6 questionWhat book have you read or

what movie have you seen thissummer that you would recom-mend to others? Why?

“I would recommend thebook ‘Sunny’s Nights: Lost andFound at a Bar on the Edge ofthe World’ by Tim Sultan.

“It is a true story of a smallbar in Red Hook, Brooklyn, itseccentric owner and thefriendship that develops withthe book’s author.

“It is told in a series of vi-gnettes centering around thebar and it bridges the Ameri-can past with the present, butcreates a place that seemstimeless.

“Sunny, the bars proprietor,passed this past year, but histalents, stories and generousspirit live on in this book.”

C.S.

“I recently watch a five-part made for TV movie con-cerning the 1995 OJ Simpsontrial. While I paid some atten-tion to that trial this movie(andthe ESPN documentary) gaveme a lot more detail and re-freshed my memory on manypoints. OJ certainly had thebest ‘dream legal team’ moneycould buy and they got him off.The prosecution made severalkey mistakes that played intothe dream team’s traps. How-ever OJ was found guilty in thefollow on civil trial where hehad to testify. He was chargedwith paying $33 million to theinjured parties. Years later hewas sentenced to 33 years inprison due to an armed rob-bery attempt in Las Vegas.Sometimes in life there is kar-ma. Go Figure!”

T.D.T.

June 29 questionWhat do you see as the most

important issue or issues in thepresidential race? Why? Whichcandidate best aligns with yourviews on those issues?

“The important issues fac-ing America and its allies havebeen dealt with ineffectivelyfor years now, due to politicalagendas instead of representa-tive of and for the people. Inaddition to our country’s debt,middle class America hassteadily lost ground due toreckless spending by the gov-ernment.

“Redistribution of wealth

and other social engineeringprojects and unnecessary ‘re-search’ ideas that are oftentacked on to significant legis-lation are the major culprits.Secret deals with other coun-tries have also given away ourtax dollars, such as for the Irandeal and for Bergdahl’s re-lease.

“Who among us doesn’thave security concerns hereand abroad? Probably onlythose who have a Secret Ser-vice detail everywhere! TheWhite House’s inner circle ex-pects us to be content to ‘staycalm and keep our heads bur-ied in the sand’ as if we have noright or the intelligence toquestion their actions or lackof action.

“They talk on, do little tonothing for us, and then spinand fabricate. The jihadistsneed to be stopped in theirtracks as should have beendone long ago. There is also therelated issue of a foothold byShira within the U.S. Thisneeds to be faced head-on, re-jected and ejected. Immigra-tion and our borders need to becontrolled. Assimilation needsto a requirement. Benefitsshould not be given to illegalsas a priority while needyAmericans are denied.

“Political correctnessshould not be permitted to in-terfere with dealing with theseissues...PC! It needs to take awalk, never to return. It’s nogood saying ‘If you see some-thing, say something’ as longas PC is being shoved down ourthroats and makes people fear-ful of speaking up. PC is mak-ing us and other countries lesssecure. Its advocates are em-bracing it within most of ourcolleges which happen to bemostly of a liberal persuasion;this has become a priority overlearning, evaluation and de-

bate, reducing the inclinationto be mature and independentindividuals who acquire usefulcareer abilities.

“Other countries are wellbeyond us in educationalachievement levels, i.e. China.Our military needs to be builtup financially and numerical-ly, not torn down and not mi-cro-managed by bureaucratsand political hacks. Terrorismcan’t be curtailed with love.Retired military need to betreated as the national trea-sures they are and givenprompt and continuing medi-cal access. Just the oppositehas been happening. Our Su-preme Court appointees needto be non-partisan, not politicaljurists.

“Trade agreements need tohave specific, adequate bene-fits for America first and fore-most. Over-regulation by ouroversized government and itsagencies that has taken placeneeds to be reduced, because itis destroying our small busi-nesses. Obamacare needs to bereplaced, to make health careaccess financially possible andcontrolled by the patient andphysician. There should be nomore pandering to our ene-mies.

“Donald Trump, lackingdecades of political spin expe-rience, does tend to put his foothis mouth at times. However,he has a wealth of patriotic, ex-perienced people, includingmilitary, standing at his side. Ibelieve America’s future is atrisk and its only chance of be-ing safe and sovereign to itselfis with Trump leading thecountry in 2017.”

S.N.

“This week’s question isabout the presidential race andwhat is most important. I thinkthe most important thing firstis to undo all the harm thatPresident Obama has done tothis country and its people, itsworldwide reputation and oursafety. I’m sorry, but I reallybelieve that Obama has beenthe worst president I have seenin my lifetime and I was bornwhen President Eisenhowerwas in office, and I also believethat Hillary Clinton just want’sto carry on his liberal leftistpolicies.

“I really believe that thecandidate that has the best andmost sincere goals for makingour country great again inDonald Trump. I realize that he

can be a bit obnoxious at times,but I believe he’s doing that onpurpose to upset the liberal,politically correct left. I be-lieve he has very good inten-tions and he does know how tonegotiate and take charge.Let’s face it, Donald Trump didnot get where he is, even inbusiness by being a dummy.We all know that Mr. Trumplikes a good ‘war with words,’but sometimes I have to laughbecause not only is he beinghonest but doing so in a humor-ous way as well.”

Tim Kline

“I think the two most impor-tant issues are the economyand global security as it relatesto terrorism. I also find gun vi-olence and the over use of gunsin violence to be an issue.

“I’m not sure either partycan deal with anything as thegovernment currently stands.I think the GOP and their sup-port of Trump is outrageousand dangerous for our country.I was embarrassed that Sen.Portman supports him and willattend the GOP convention inCleveland. The GOP caresmore about party unity and pu-rity than working out issuesfacing our country.

“I have to vote Democraticin this election. My grandpar-ents came over as immigrantsand because of them I am nowhere. After my father passedas a child my mother workedand it was only through socialpolicies, as supported by Dem-ocratic principles that wewere able to stay in our home.

“I want my daughter to beable to make her own repro-ductive health choices, havethe opportunity for equal payfor equal work when workingwith males and I want to see afairer tax system.

“I want combat weapons un-available to anyone I want tosee a vast reform in campaignfinancing so a pro violence or-ganization like the NRA can’tparalyze our country’s medi-cal research and Congress

“All those issues are at leaston the table with Democrats,although they disagree on howto best solvethem. The GOPhas overturned my access tothe table.”

C.S.

“The most important issuesare: 1, SCOTUS selection, 2,economy, 3, budget deficitsand deficit spending.

“1, If HRC is elected thebench shifts further to the leftplus she would probably getanother bite of the apple dur-ing the next four to eight years.Therefore, this election is at acritical juncture. HRC(pushed by the Bernie faction)will move our country in a di-rection of no return. Not goodand the repercussions will befelt for generations to come.

“2, Growth has been anemicduring the BHO years. Notgood for the middle or lowerclasses nor was it good for mi-nority populations. We simplycan’t spend our way intogrowth and job creation. Theshackles of Dodd-Frank are re-straining our economy and thecreation of “us vs. them” men-tality (e.g.,big banks, WallStreet, the 1 percent) has nothelped. There are less banksnow than before the Great Re-cession, but they are larger insize and scope. Regulationswill not prevent the next crisis.Taxing Wall Street and the richto hilt will not grow our econo-my or pull the poor out of dis-tress.

“3, Interest payments arefederal debt continue to take alarger portion of federalspending. It will crowd out oth-er well meaning programs. Re-forms are needed - social secu-rity, federal pensions, healthcare, welfare, warfare, etc.Costs need to reigned in. Freestuff (college education, etc) isnot the answer either. Futuregenerations are thrown an un-fair burden.

“So who is most aligned withmy interests? Not HRC or Bo-ris, I mean the Donald. HRCwill continue the BHO shiftleftward and the Donald, well,er, uh .....What a mess we are in.The choices are pathetic but...Iwill vote against the crook andreluctantly check the box forthe orange-haired egotisticalwhatever. Why? SCOTUS!”

T.B.

“The U.S. Supreme Courtappointees who will be nomi-nated by the next presidentwill have immediate and verylong impact on the future ofour country. The High Courtneeds to be an independentbranch of our government. It iscritical that the judicialbranch of our governmentdoes not blend with the execu-tive branch.”

Hot, sunny days are greatfor visiting the pools, goingon a picnic and playing out-side, but they also allow ozoneto build.

Ozone is a combination ofair pollutants, such as vehicleexhaust and industrial emis-sions, which thrives with heatand sunlight. Higher ozonelevels may cause unhealthyair quality, especially impact-ing people with asthma orother respiratory illnesses.

As a public service, theSouthwest Ohio Air QualityAgency monitors air qualityon a daily basis and notifiesthe public if we are fore-casting the likelihood of un-healthy air quality levels.

The U.S. Environmental

ProtectionAgency hasset the ozonestandard at70 parts perbillion whichequals 100 onthe Air Qual-ity Index.When agencystaff fore-casts an exce-dance, or an

Air Quality Index of 105 orhigher, we’ll issue an AirQuality Advisory. This offi-cial notification is your cue tosafeguard your outdoor exer-tion, especially if you sufferfrom a cardiac or respiratoryillness.

It’s also your opportunity

to follow best practices toreduce air pollutants. Simpleactions like not idling yourvehicle, carpooling, suspend-ing mowing, and conservingelectricity can make a posi-tive difference.

As of June 7, the Agencyhas issued two Air QualityAdvisories. There are plentyof warm summer days ahead,so keep yourself informed byvisiting our website at South-westOhioAir.org or inter-acting with us at Face-book.com/SouthwestOhioAir.

DELHI TWP. – Formore than three days,they painstakingly laidmillions of grains of col-ored sand into place.

When they were fin-ished, the intricate sandpainting they’d createdwas swept up and pur-posely poured into theOhio River.

Before their work wascarried away by the cur-rents, however, studentsand faculty at Mount St.Joseph University got tosee the art piece come to-gether.

A group of Tibetanmonks from the DrepungGomang Monastery, aBuddhist monastery inSouth India dating backto 1416, visited the Delhicampus to create a sa-cred sand mandala in theuniversity’s Studio SanGiuseppe Art Gallery.

The mandala is an an-cient art form of TibetanBuddhism. The termmandala means “worldharmony” and the three-dimensional artworksare carefully construct-ed from dyed sand parti-cles to represent the thetraditions of Buddhism.

This is the second timethe monks have created a

sand mandala at the WestSide university. A groupwas also here in Septem-ber 2014.

“As an art professor, Ilove seeing the students’minds blown,” LoyolaWalter, associate profes-sor of art at the Mount,said.

“I love how the stu-dents get to see the time ittakes, the focus it takesand the beauty of thepiece.”

Walter’s sister, AnneWalter, is the director ofthe Drepung GomangCenter for EngagingCompassion in Louis-ville, Kentucky, theNorth American seat ofthe monastery, and wasinstrumental in helpingbring the group to theMount. The school’s Stu-dent Government Associ-ation, Art Education As-sociation and the Art &Design Department alsohelped the universityhost the group.

The monks are on ayear-long tour through-out the U.S. to share thecompassion and wisdomof Tibetan Buddhism,demonstrate the artisticaccomplishments of thepeople of Tibet and raisemoney to ensure the sur-vival of the Tibetan cul-ture. Proceeds from the

sale of crafts and jewelryat tour stops are used tohouse, feed and educateeveryone wishing tostudy at the monastery,including orphans andrefugees fleeing Chi-nese-occupied Tibet.

“The Student Govern-ment Association wasvery excited to have thisyear’s tour group come tothe university,” LoyolaWalter said.

“It’s a great spiritualconnection for our stu-dents to see across cul-tures.”

Religion, English, artand music professorsbrought their classes tothe gallery to see themonks at work and manystudents also came ontheir own between class-es to experience it.

“We’ve had goodcrowds each day,” VelmaDailey, director of the artgallery, said.

In Tibetan Buddhism,a mandala is an imagi-nary place contemplatedduring meditation. Thereare many different man-dalas, each with differentlessons to teach andblessings to confer. Themonks create the piecesfrom memory and spend

two years learning thevarious mandalas, Waltersaid.

Geshe Lharampa Tse-wang Thinley, the group’stour leader who has beenwith the monastery for 32years, said the mandalathey constructed at theMount represents com-passion and is meant toencourage everyone togenerate a compassion-ate heart for the benefitof all sentient beings.

He said the monks ap-preciated the warm wel-come they received fromthe school community.

“It’s very good, we en-joyed it,” he said, notingthey were even able totake in a university bas-ketball game during theirvisit.

“Everything is reallygood, with good people.”

Walter said she hopesthe visit helped studentsrealize they all have com-passion within them-selves and the ability tobring the seeds of com-passion to life.

“That’s what the worldneeds, is for us all to becompassionate beings,”she said.

Thinley swept up the

sands during a dissolu-tion ceremony after themandala was completed,and the sands were takento Fernbank Park to bereleased into the river.The ritual symbolizes theimpermanence of life.The sands are always dis-persed in a body of waterso the love and energyplaced into making themandala is spreadthroughout the world.
