George Washington Educational Campus

It was great going here, I only wish I would’ve gone all 4 years. I did finish school early by going to day & night school. Superb athletic department.

I think it's a beautiful historic building. I walked by it at night for the first time & had to take a couple pictures.

My mother who died on May 8th 2008 graduated in 1959 at George Washington High School. She was a very proud student at that school, she helped other students if they needed help and my mother was there. My mother was part of the girly girls who would tutored other girls to get better grades at that school, the girls loved my mother for helping their education and activities as well. My mother had lots of pride at George Washington High School and now she's dead. My mother's name was Lillian Soudjian!!

The Cradle of the Greatest Generation.

I am 88 years old and attended George Washington High School graduating in December,1942. We had two graduation dates in those days: mid-winter and Spring. The school had three divisions: (pre-college, pre-business, and pre-trades. The majority of the students were in the Academic division and that is where I was and of which my review is directed. There were three science teachers (Biology, Chemistry, and Physics) all of whom held Ph.D. degrees in their subject areas. One of them, Paul Brandwein, aimed me at my eventual career as a scientist.

THe academic program was, from my vantage point as a retired college professor, excellent in that the faculty were individuals with impeccable credentials in their subject areas. Add to this a student body just a notch below the academically superior DeWitt Clinton H.S., Bronx H.S. of Science, and Peter Styvusant H.S., for Mathematics. The students were to become The Greatest Graduation. We had been children throughout the Great Depression, the members of our class having been born in 1924-26. I enlisted in the U.S. Navy and served during WWII from 1943-1946. I benefited from the G.I Bill and attended the University of Wisconsin, Northwestern University, and the University of Minnesota. I earned my Ph.D. from Minnesota in Biochemistry and Developmental Biology. One of my thesis advisers was Paul D. Boyer, Nobel Laureate in Chemistry in 1997. My education at George Washington enabled me to function very effectively in colleges with faculty members of international reputations.
