When Southern Utah University’s 5,300-seat Centrum was completed in 1985, it was hoped the state-of-the art facility would push the Thunderbirds to the highest levels of collegiate sports. In 1988 and again in 1996 the Utah Jazz called the Centrum home for fall training camp and each year the Centrum is the centerpiece venue for the Utah Summer Games. The facility which covers six acres and cost just over $8 million to build is part of the Sharwan Smith Center, which houses the SUU Bookstore, Grand Ballroom, food services, and all of the student services offices. The concourse of the Centrum houses SUTV studios, the basketball offices, academic offices and numerous classrooms and art studios.

SUU QUICK FACTS

2011-12 SOUTHERN UTAH WOMEN’S BASKETBALL

Page 5: SUU Women's Basketball Media Guide 2011-12

the southern Utah University women’s basketball team will look to build on one of its most successful runs in recent history, after competing in the summit League tournament last year. the upcoming season promises to be full of intrigue as the thunderbirds match a group of talented young returners with a strong recruiting class, for a combination that will produce the fourth youngest team in the nation. “this is a young team with limited experience, and the growth of all of our players is going to be interesting to see,” asserted Thunderbird head coach Jr Payne. “many of them are prepared to emerge as basketball players.” Basketball fans will notice two changes this year, both in the game and on the court as the nCAA has moved the 3-point line back to coincide with the men’s mark, and has also added a restricted area arc in the key where charges will not be called, similar to the rule used in the nBA. “At first I didn’t think the new 3-point line would be that different, but there is definitely less consistency from that distance which should separate the makers from the takers. We are also seeing a lot of toes on the line as players make the adjustment,” explained Payne. “The new arc is so small that its impact appears like it will be minimal.” the t-Birds will look for leadership from the most veteran member of their squad, tayler Anderson. the junior forward from Lyman, Wyoming brings valuable experience to a young group after having already played in 60 games in a thunderbird uniform. Anderson is one of two returning starters for sUU and was one of the team’s top rebounders and assist leaders last year. “Tayler has more minutes and starts than anyone,” said Payne. “Before she has been a great team player and was content contributing on defense and rebounding. Now we are asking her to expand her role offensively while continuing to be a hard-worker and leader.” Joining Andersen in the post will be sophomores Carli moreland and meghan ringer, redshirt-freshman torey Hill, transfer Kimie Hawkins and incoming freshman Brenna Gates. moreland was able to gain a significant amount of experience in her freshman campaign, appearing in all 30 games for the Thunderbirds a year ago. “Carli has been awesome this offseason,” stated Payne. “She has worked so hard to attack her weaknesses and has really improved them. she is also very strong in the weight room and has become a vocal leader for us.”

Competing with Moreland for minutes this fall will be junior college transfer Kimie Hawkins. The junior forward joins the Thunderbirds after a very successful stint at Mt. SAC. “It is always difficult to make the transition to the Division-I level. Transfers come in a little older so you expect them to do better, but there is always more to learn,” explained Payne. “Kimie is great in the basketball area, taking people off the dribble, rebounding outside her area. right now her biggest challenge is that she is new to our system.” torey Hill and meghan ringher are both working to come back from injuries and should be ready for the season to give coach Payne added options in the front-court. “torey was here for the second half of the season last year so she didn’t have the chance to get into everything, but she works hard and always does extra. she is a country-strong farm girl and I expect her to be back soon”, said Payne. “meghan worked hard this summer to get stronger and studied to improve her basketball iQ. Unfortunately she has been limited by injuries this fall.” Undoubtedly the “biggest” piece of the incoming recruiting class, Brenna Gates joins the Thunderbirds after an outstanding high school career. the 6-4 center from California posted 20.5 rebounds per game to lead the state in rebounding while also averaging 18.3 points a contest. “Brenna has a rare combination of size and agility,” described Payne. “She is very long and

has great feet and hands. She is really competing for a spot and could be very good.” there is a lot of excitement about the t-Bird backcourt this season, most of it surrounding all-summit League Newcomer Team selection and top-returning scorer Desiree Jackson. The sophomore guard from moreno valley, Calif. started all year for southern Utah in 2010-11 and had one of the most impressive freshman campaigns in school history. “Des’ potential is off the charts,” stated Payne. “She is as talented as anyone I’ve ever coached. Her work ethic this year is a night-and-day improvement. She has become a better three-point shooter, gained good weight and is stronger. Des will be a special player in this league and in the Big Sky.” Along with Jackson, the Thunderbirds will feature a talented group of shooting guards. Angel Dorn returns for her sophomore season and will be joined by freshmen marquelle Funk from Highland, Utah and taylor maynes of salome, Ariz.

2011-12 SEASON PREVIEW

“Angel is very strong and contributes a lot to our defense. she is developing her shot and has the tools to be a good player,” said Payne. “Marquelle has tremendous length on the perimeter which is important in our system. She has shown great natural abilities, she runs the floor, rebounds and is learning quickly. Taylor is a good shooter with a tireless work ethic.” The Southern Utah roster includes three players who could all see time at the point this year. Andrea Jones appears to be the front-runner after establishing herself as a key player off the bench for the Thunderbirds last season and finishing among the team leaders in steals and assists. Sophomore DJ Norman also garnered valuable experience in her freshman campaign appearing in twenty-nine games. “Andrea is a very talented scorer and distributor. she is also a great defender and can be a total gnat on that side of the ball,” explained Payne. “She has a great knowledge of the game and her savvy will really help us on the floor. DJ had a great summer and really worked on her game. She is a versatile player who can play all three guard positions.” the t-birds will also welcome newcomer Hailey mandelko to the backcourt. the Lexington, Neb. native had an outstanding high school career and the sUU coaches were excited to receive her commitment. “Hailey could be a special player here at SUU,” stated Payne. “She has a high basketball IQ, is athletic, shoots the ball well, moves fast and has great court vision. she makes her team better and can also score when she wants to. Hailey has a great work ethic and wants to be good, and she definitely has the ability to get there.” The Thunderbirds enter their final season of competition in the Summit League as the university is set to become a member of the Big sky Conference next summer. southern Utah will have their work cut out for them as they face a challenging preseason schedule that includes teams from the West Coast, Big ten and Pac-12 conferences in addition to their regular slate of games in the competitive Summit League. “This is definitely the toughest schedule that we have played here with a lot of difficult road games. it should help prepare us for the physical play in the summit League and anyone else we might play in the future,” surmised Payne. “i’m excited to see how well we compete in our third year in the summit League and want to make a push to be in the upper echelon.”

HEAD COACH JR PAyNE

JR Payne begins her third season at the helm of the Thunderbirds after being named the ninth women’s basketball head coach at Southern Utah University on April 20, 2009. She has led the T-Birds to a combined record of 23-37 in her first two years at SUU. The Thunderbirds finished the 2010-11 season with a record of 16-14, the team’s best mark in the past seven years. The 2011 squad also had one of their best seasons as a member of the Summit League, posting a 10-8 record to finish fifth in the conference. Under Payne’s guidance in this past season, forward Challis Pascucci produced one of best individual performances in SUU history, earning a spot on the All-Summit League first team after finishing third in the conference in scoring (17.7 PPG), second in rebounding (9.7 RPG) and sixth in blocks (23). Pascucci finished the 2011 season as the Thunderbirds all-time leader in career rebounds (929) and fourth in scoring (1,328). Caitlyn Sears was also recognized as a member of the All-Summit League second team, and freshman Desiree Jackson was named to the All-Newcomer team. Following the season, Payne had eight of her players earn Summit League All-Academic honors, one of the highest team totals in the conference. Prior to coming to SUU, Payne served as the top assistant at Santa Clara University under first-year head coach Jennifer Mountain for the 2008-09 season. Payne also served as an assistant coach at Boise State University and Gonzaga University. During her time in Boise, the Broncos enjoyed a wealth of success, winning conference titles two of the three years and advancing to the NCAA postseason. BSU posted back-to-back 24-8 seasons, including a perfect 14-0 mark at home during the 2007-08 season. Payne began her career at Gonzaga University, serving as an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator under head coach Kelly Graves. Payne was an integral part of the Bulldogs turnaround as the team posted a five-win season during the staff’s first year then went to a 28-win season during the 2004-05 season, including an undefeated run in the West Coast Conference. Payne was a part of the process that brought Gonzaga’s first All-American to campus in guard Shannon Mathews. As a player, Payne was a four-year letter winner at St. Mary’s College (Calif.), helping the Gaels earn their first trip to the NCAA Tournament in school-history during the 1998-99 season. The former point guard was an All-West Coast Conference first team selection and was also named to the West Coast Conference All-Tournament first team twice.

Toriano Towns enters his third season as associate head coach for the Thunderbirds. Towns serves as SUU’s recruiting and defensive coordinator, assists with the planning of practice sessions, conditioning, scouting, and also works with the Thunderbird post players. In his first two seasons with the Thunderbirds, Towns helped forward Challis Pascucci develop into one of the premiere low post players in the Summit League. After the 2009-10 season Pascucci earned All-Summit League second team honors after leading the conference in rebounding and tied for the lead in blocked shots. She also set the SUU single-season record for total rebounds with 291 and her 46 blocks were the fifth most in SUU single-season history. This past year Pascucci earned a spot on the All-Summit League first team after finishing third in the conference in scoring (17.7 PPG), second in rebounding (9.7 RPG) and sixth in blocks (23). Pascucci finished the 2011 season as the Thunderbirds all-time leader in career rebounds (929) and fourth in scoring (1,328). Towns joined Southern Utah after spending four years at Boise State University as the Broncos defensive coordinator. During his time at BSU, the Broncos won back-to-back Western Athletic Conference championships, earned a trip to the NCAA tournament, advanced to the second round

of the WNIT tournament, had a pair of First Team All-WAC guards and set numerous offensive and defensive school records. Prior to Boise State, Towns spent one season as an assistant coach at the University of Arizona, helping the Wildcats record a 20-win season and a post a first round NCAA Tournament victory against the University of Oklahoma. Towns played a major role in recruiting and scouting at Arizona. He worked with the Wildcat post players, assisting with the development of Shawntinice Polk who became one of the country’s most decorated post players being named to the Kodak/WBCA All-American team, first-team All-Pac-10 team, and Kodak/WBCA all-Region 8 team. Towns’ coaching career began at Gonzaga University where he served as an assistant for three seasons. At Gonzaga, Towns was responsible for post player development, where he coached five All-West Coast Conference performers along with holding responsibility for scouting and game preparation. He also served as the co-recruiting coordinator for the Bulldogs. During his time at Gonzaga, he helped orchestrate the second-best turnaround in WCC history as the Bulldogs went from eighth in 2002-03 to second place in 2003-04, posting an 18-12 overall record. That team advanced to its second-ever Women’s National Invitational Tournament (WNIT). Towns earned his bachelor’s degree in communications from Saint Mary’s College in 1998 and his Master’s Degree in Organizational Leadership from Gonzaga University this past spring. “Toriano has been a great addition to Southern Utah women’s basketball,” head coach JR Payne said. “He’s a proven recruiter on a national scale and will continue to elevate our recruiting to a new level. Toriano is a fierce competitor on the court and is extremely passionate about the growth and development of our student-athletes, not only as players but also as people. He is great resource that will continue to contribute in the building SUU women’s basketball.”

“Ascending” and “improving” are adjectives frequently used in media coverage of The Summit League as it continues a renaissance on the playing eld and in the classroom. As The Summit League celebrates its 30th anniversary season as an NCAA Division I athletics conference, the level of performance and achievement among the 11 member institutions and over 3,000 student-athletes in 19 championship sports continues to grow. Since 2007, The Summit League has produced 39 All-Americans and 28 Academic All-America selections along with three NCAA Champions, two NBA Draft choices and one Olympic Silver medalist. Headlining The Summit League’s most recent history were the additions of the University of South Dakota and the University of Nebraska Omaha to its membership. USD joined in 2009 and the 2011-12 academic year marks its rst year of full league competition. UNO’s membership took effect on July 1, 2011 and it will begin league competition in 2012-13. The Summit League’s visibility continues to expand on several fronts. The 2011 Baseball Championship drew a record 5,128 fans, topping the previous high by almost 1,500. Another successful Summit League Basketball Championship totaled a combined attendance of over 32,000 which ranked as the second-highest gure in league history while the men’s tournament was one of just six outside the traditional “power conferences” to average 4,400 or better per session. Television exposure also increased with the broadcasts of four Summit League sport championships in 2010-11. For the second consecutive season, all 14 men’s and women’s basketball tournament games were televised live, including the women’s championship on ESPNU and the men’s on ESPN2. Furthermore, The Summit League Outdoor Track and Field Championships were televised for the rst time and the league’s entire Baseball Tournament was carried live, marking another rst. The national reach of The Summit League was furthered when three member institutions hosted 2010-11 NCAA Championship events. IUPUI was a quad-host for the Women’s Basketball Final Four, UMKC co-hosted the Volleyball Championship and Oakland hosted the Great Lakes Cross Country Regional Championship. In 2013, Oakland will host the Men’s Basketball Second and Third Rounds and IUPUI will serve as co-host for a Men’s Basketball Regional. In men’s basketball, The Summit League ranked No. 18 in the Sagarin Ratings, placing four teams among the top 150 and six in the top 200. In the Mid-Major Top 25 poll, league champion Oakland ranked No. 5 with two rst-place votes entering the NCAA Tournament, putting them ahead of two Final Four participants, including the national runner-up. The Summit League set a league-record by playing 16 games against AP nationally-ranked teams, the highest total among mid-majors, including seven top-10 opponents, highlighted by Oakland’s win at then-No. 7 Tennessee. Women’s basketball joined the men in sending multiple teams to the postseason with three teams advancing for the second-straight year, including Oral Roberts, which reached the WNIT’s round of 16 to match the league’s deepest run in that tournament.

Celebrating its 30th season in Division I athletics

Bahamas’ 4x400-meter relay team after winning both the NCAA Indoor and Outdoor 400-meter titles and IUPUI’s George Hill became The Summit League’s second NBA rst round draft pick. Originally formed in 1982 as the Association of Mid-Continent Universities and later known as the Mid-Continent Conference, The Summit League is in its fth year of rebranding that followed its 25th anniversary and coincided with the Summit Plan, a strategic plan that places a renewed emphasis on improving the academic and athletic performances of all league student-athletes. Included in the plan was the league’s new name, the creation of a new image and the addition of three member institutions. The Summit League has a combined enrollment of over 135,000 at 11 universities, ve of which are located in the top 76 U.S. media markets (Detroit, Indianapolis, Kansas City, Tulsa and Omaha). Member institutions include: IPFW (Indiana University-Purdue University-Fort Wayne), IUPUI (Indiana University-Purdue University-Indianapolis), UMKC (University of Missouri-Kansas City), the University of Nebraska Omaha (which begins league competition in 2012-13), North Dakota State University, Oakland University, Oral Roberts University, the University of South Dakota (in its rst year as a full member), South Dakota State University, Southern Utah University and Western Illinois University. Eastern Illinois University is an associate member in swimming and diving and men’s soccer. These member institutions pride themselves on providing quality athletic, academic and social experiences for their student-athletes. The Summit League sponsors 19 championship sports: baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s cross country, men’s and women’s golf, men’s and women’s soccer, softball, men’s and women’s swimming and diving, men’s and women’s indoor track and eld, men’s and women’s outdoor track and eld, men’s and women’s tennis, and volleyball. The league champion receives an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament in all applicable sports. Since its inception in 1982, The Summit League has had several transcendent moments on the national stage. In 1986, Cleveland State upset third-seeded Indiana in the rst round of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament on its way to a berth in the Sweet 16. A decade later, Valparaiso captured the nation’s attention when Bryce Drew hit “the shot” to defeat No. 4 seed Mississippi in an NCAA rst-round game and spark its Sweet 16 run. More recently, Oral Roberts’ baseball program nished the 2004 campaign with a national-ranking and became the rst Summit League school to reach an NCAA Super Regional in 2006. Three years later, North Dakota State’s 2009 softball team became the rst League member to win an NCAA regional and advance to the Super Regional round. During the 2008-09 basketball season, South Dakota State’s women’s team was nationally-ranked throughout the year and capped its season with an NCAA Tournament rst round victory. The League has produced ve NCAA champions, four Olympic athletes and several All-Americans in the sports of track and eld, swimming and diving and cross country. Numerous professional athletes and several draft choices have come directly from The Summit League, including three Major League Baseball rst round picks, a pair of NBA rst rounders, and one WNBA selection. Former Summit Leaguer Kevin Duckworth (NBA) was a two-time all-star during his professional career. Recent and historical success coupled with an increased growth among its membership base gives The Summit League a promising future on the landscape of college athletics.

ASSOCIATE MEMBER: Eastern Illinois University competes as an associate member in swimming and diving and men’s soccer.

One of the Summit League’s most iconic moments came when Valparaiso’s Bryce Drew hit “the shot”, a game-winning three-pointer at the buzzer, to top Mississippi in the rst round of the 1998 NCAA Tournament. Valpo’s story captivated the nation as they became the league’s second team to reach the “Sweet 16.”

“Ascending” and “improving” are adjectives frequently used in media coverage of The Summit League as it continues a renaissance on the playing eld and in the classroom. As The Summit League celebrates its 30th anniversary season as an NCAA Division I athletics conference, the level of performance and achievement among the 11 member institutions and over 3,000 student-athletes in 19 championship sports continues to grow. Since 2007, The Summit League has produced 39 All-Americans and 28 Academic All-America selections along with three NCAA Champions, two NBA Draft choices and one Olympic Silver medalist. Headlining The Summit League’s most recent history were the additions of the University of South Dakota and the University of Nebraska Omaha to its membership. USD joined in 2009 and the 2011-12 academic year marks its rst year of full league competition. UNO’s membership took effect on July 1, 2011 and it will begin league competition in 2012-13. The Summit League’s visibility continues to expand on several fronts. The 2011 Baseball Championship drew a record 5,128 fans, topping the previous high by almost 1,500. Another successful Summit League Basketball Championship totaled a combined attendance of over 32,000 which ranked as the second-highest gure in league history while the men’s tournament was one of just six outside the traditional “power conferences” to average 4,400 or better per session. Television exposure also increased with the broadcasts of four Summit League sport championships in 2010-11. For the second consecutive season, all 14 men’s and women’s basketball tournament games were televised live, including the women’s championship on ESPNU and the men’s on ESPN2. Furthermore, The Summit League Outdoor Track and Field Championships were televised for the rst time and the league’s entire Baseball Tournament was carried live, marking another rst. The national reach of The Summit League was furthered when three member institutions hosted 2010-11 NCAA Championship events. IUPUI was a quad-host for the Women’s Basketball Final Four, UMKC co-hosted the Volleyball Championship and Oakland hosted the Great Lakes Cross Country Regional Championship. In 2013, Oakland will host the Men’s Basketball Second and Third Rounds and IUPUI will serve as co-host for a Men’s Basketball Regional. In men’s basketball, The Summit League ranked No. 18 in the Sagarin Ratings, placing four teams among the top 150 and six in the top 200. In the Mid-Major Top 25 poll, league champion Oakland ranked No. 5 with two rst-place votes entering the NCAA Tournament, putting them ahead of two Final Four participants, including the national runner-up.

deAr tHuNderbird FANS ANd SuPPorterS:

One of America’s great coaches once said, “The will to win is not nearly as important as the will to prepare to win.” All of us at Southern Utah University are committed to helping our student-athletes as they prepare to win on their respective fields and courts of competition. But more importantly, we arecommitted to helping them acquire those tools, experiences, and skills that will help them succeed in life and their life’s work. I thank you for your continued commitment to SUU and its many outstanding athletic programs which now number 17 – the second highest number of Division I sports programs offered in the entire State of Utah.

For all those who enjoy a football Saturday on a beautiful fall day in the shadow of CedarMountain, the benefits of Division I athletics in our community areinnumerable. From the dollars spent by visiting teams and fans in our local places of business to the positive media coverage generated by our student-athletes,theUniversityisthebeneficiaryoftheseandotherpositiveby-productsof the substantial investment in our athletic program. Donors and alumni are

even more proud of their association with the University when they see a return on their donated dollars in the formofsuccessonthefieldandintheclassroom.

Excellence in athletics will continue to be an investment we are willing to make at Southern Utah University. In addition to those student-athletes who learn invaluable lessons in both the “thrill of victory and the agony of defeat,” athletics provide excellent participation opportunities for students in bands, cheer squads, dance teams, trainers, marketing interns, and many more. Our student athletes also represent a large percentage of the geographic, socioeconomic, ethnic, and religious diversity on campus which, I believe, enhances and enriches the academic and social experience of ALL our students.

I heartily commend our athletic director, Ken Beazer, and his able and committed staff for their superb stewardship of the funds directed toward athletics. I also wish to thank all the academic and support staff who regularly monitor the progress of our student-athletes to ensure their commitment to “prepare to win” while at SUU and well beyond.

Thank you for your support of Southern Utah University and the proud Thunderbird tradition.

yours sincerely,

President Michael Benson

Ken Beazer was named Southern Utah’s Athletic Director on Dec. 21, 2005 and took the reins of the program Jan. 2, 2006.

Beazer came to southern Utah from Utah state University, where he has served as director of athletic development for the past four-plus years. While at UsU, Beazer developed and initiated the largest capital campaign in the history of the school’s athletic department, including fund-raising for a planned $25 million renovation of Romney Stadium.

Prior to his time at Utah State, Beazer spent nine years at Snow College, the first three as defensive coordinator on the football coaching staff and the final six – from 1995 to 2001 – as the school’s director of athletics. As a coach his teams ranked among the NJCAA’s top five defenses two of his three seasons, while as AD at Snow he implemented the college’s first Athletic Foundation Board as well as an annual giving program. He also spent two seasons as a graduate assistant football coach at Washington state University.

Beazer is a 1989 graduate of Weber state University with a degree in broadcast communication. He also holds a master of arts degree in communication from Washington State, as well as an associate of arts in the same field from Snow College.

Beazer and his wife, Cidnee, are the parents of four children: Rhett, Adrienne, Jadon and Harrison.

Ken BeAzer on sUU AtHLetiCs:

Southern Utah University is truly a place where academics come first. The strong academic commitment of the staff and coaches is manifest in the overall academic accomplishments our teams achieve on an annual basis. the University’s strong academic emphasis, coupled with the dedicated efforts of the student athletes, allows the Athletics Department to continually post high marks in the classroom.

The academic climate offered at SUU enables the institution to attract and retain high quality student athletes with sound character and a clear understanding of personal responsibility. Thunderbird Athletics was recently rewarded by its fellow institutions with an unprecedented, fourth consecutive Mid-Continent Conference Sportsmanship Award, setting a new standard by which all institutions are now measured.

Southern Utah is fortunate to have a great relationship with the community, bringing new meaning to the term, “campus community.” Cedar City residents are hospitable, friendly and eager to serve, creating an ideal setting for personal growth. thunderbird student athletes readily accept their responsibility of role models and spent countless hours in the local schools mentoring children.

Southern Utah University’s commitment to athletics is manifest in its first class athletic facilities, providing the necessary amenities for a student athlete to achieve his/her athletic goals and compete at higher levels.

Southern Utah University is an ideal place to achieve academic and athletic excellence and reach the high expectations we all have. Southern Utah University is one of the best locations to experience a true college atmosphere.

The University’s skiing classroom is at the11,300-foot Brian Head Ski Resort, less than anhour away, while the recreational opportunitiesoffered by Lake Powell are less than two hoursaway.

SUU has a history unique in the annals of American highereducation. In 1897, the entire population of Cedar City, thena small pioneer town, engaged in the building of Old Main,the first building of the University. Beginning the project inmid-winter because of a harsh deadline imposed by the leg-islature, the men and women of the community donatedmaterials, money and labor to complete the building ontime.

Today the university campus has grown to comprise 133acres, landscaped with fountains, tallspruce and pine trees, plazas, statu-ary, latticed walkways and expansivelawns, offering the kind of educationyou’d expect to receive at a small,private school at the low price of apublic institution.

Geology and life science field tripstake advantage of these national treasures, inaddition to Bryce Canyon, Grand Canyon, Capi-tol Reef and Great Basin National Parks, whichare also close by.

The University’s skiing classroom is at the11,300-foot Brian Head Ski Resort, less than anhour away, while the recreational opportunitiesoffered by Lake Powell are less than two hoursaway.

SUU has a history unique in the annals of American highereducation. In 1897, the entire population of Cedar City, thena small pioneer town, engaged in the building of Old Main,the first building of the University. Beginning the project inmid-winter because of a harsh deadline imposed by the leg-islature, the men and women of the community donatedmaterials, money and labor to complete the building ontime.

Today the university campus has grown to comprise 133acres, landscaped with fountains, tallspruce and pine trees, plazas, statu-ary, latticed walkways and expansivelawns, offering the kind of educationyou’d expect to receive at a small,private school at the low price of apublic institution.
