EPSILON – “30 Years in the Making”

The Yearbook Committee would like to wish Newman a Happy 30th Anniversary with the release of the 30th edition of the Epsilon. The 2004-05 yearbook commemorates Newman’s spirit and achievement in the arts, athletics, clubs, committees, and student life over the course of the year while incorporating some facts about Newman’s history. Be sure to check out the latest edition! NEWMAN “POPS” INTO PITTSBURGH

The Yearbook committee is currently working on the 2005-06 edition of the Epsilon; this yearbook’s theme is “POP ART” based on the visual imagery and graphic design of the famous 20th century artist Andy Warhol. He is known for the expression, “everyone will have their 15 minutes of fame”, as well as his portraits of Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley, and Campbell’s Soup Cans.

The dedicated and hard-working Yearbook Committee travelled to Pittsburgh, USA in early December with senior Art, and Communications Technology classes, to study Warhol’s art and graphic style first-hand at the Andy Warhol Museum which is one of the premiere Carnegie Museums.

We are also planning to offer “Yearbook” as a course next year, so students currently in grades 10, 11, or 12 may consider taking it to learn more about photojournalism and graphic design! ... Mrs. C. Penich (Yearbook Advisor)

EPSILON RECEIVES A FIRST PLACE HONOUR!

The Cardinal Newman Yearbook Committee is pleased to announce that once again, our Yearbook – the 30th Anniversary Edition of the Epsilon 2004-05– has received a FIRST PLACE rating from the Canadian Yearbook Review. The CYR is the governing body in Canada that judges yearbooks across the nation in the categories of photography (both technical and artistic), journalism, and graphic design. We can’t wait until they see the book we are currently working on – Fifteen Minutes of Fame 2005-06 - and we can’t wait to share it with the rest of the school in the Fall. Since our trip to Pittsburgh last December to study at the Andy Warhol Museum, we have incorporated our theme of Pop Art in exciting and creative ways! We also look forward to offering “Yearbook” as a course next year which will provide us with an opportunity to delve deeper into photography, journalism, and graphic design.
