NEW YORK
Berger’s Beat
May 2, 2015 Author: berger
New York Archbishop Timothy Dolan has been asked by some students and faculty of Le Moyne College in Syracuse, N.Y. to be removed as commencement speaker on May 17. They will close their eyes if Dolan is allowed to speak. Their statement: “Dolan’s handling of child sex abuse against priests and comments he’s made about gays and lesbians make him an unfit speaker.”
Dolan, a native of Ballwin, was named archbishop by Pope Benedict XVI in 2009.
