SYRACUSE, N.Y. — In the Catholic world, it’s a major accomplishment for Le Moyne College: a commencement address by Cardinal Timothy Dolan of New York.
“He’s really the most prominent Catholic leader in the United States these days. So, Cardinal Dolan will offer, I’m sure, an enthusiastic, heart warming, and I think, pastoral message to our students,” said Rev. David McCallum, the college’s director of mission and identity.
But, some members of the class of 2015 say they plan to ignore that speech.
“I think that, as a group, a group of people who have their own identity, we have decided that Cardinal Dolan doesn’t really embody the values that we’ve been taught at a Jesuit school,” said Le Moyne senior Kate Bakhuizen.
