Thomas Jefferson Statue
Fellow Alumni
The Nonpariel printed an article on Mar. 3, 2011 about raising money for a bronze statue of Thomas Jefferson to be placed in the school. Flyers were mailed last Nov to a number of alumni. My family had seven siblings graduate from TJ and currently has a granddaughter/niece attending the school. We decided to make a family contribution to this cause and would like to invite other TJ families to join us to make this a success.
Check out the details in the Nonpariel.

Dave Leinen, TJHS Alumnus
Dave Leinen, Thomas Jefferson High School alumnus and former Yellow Jackets pitcher, has received the University of California, Irvine’s Staff Achievement Award, the university’s most prestigious staff honor. For the past 25 years, working across multiple units on campus, Leinen has been "the go to guy." Whether it's making tough decisions in order to effectively manage the School of Social Sciences' budget and staff - a job he has consistently done for the past 10 years as assistant dean of the largest academic unit on campus - to serving up hot dogs and hamburgers to hundreds of incoming freshmen, he can always be counted on to be there with, according to Michael Poston, UCI's director of institutional research, "a smile on his face and a cheerful word for everyone."
"Dave Leinen is someone who makes us all proud to be Anteaters and it is a source of pride to see him win this award," says Ralph Cicerone, National Academy of Sciences president and UCI chancellor emeritus.
