DeSales alumnus and McShea Leadership award-winner Tim Gallagher sat down for an interview with Patch on DeSales, diversity and the action that pushed him to write online petition about same-sex rights.
When Tim Gallagher was a resident adviser at DeSales University his sophomore year, he says a freshman found the word "fag" carved into his front door. That action started a series of events that led the alumnus to start an online petition against DeSales policy this week. On Monday, Gallagher posted the petition on Change.org in response to repeated denials by university officials to allow an LGBT student group to form on campus. The controversy comes during the same week that same-sex marriage is sparking both demonstrations of support and protests at Chick-fil-A restaurants nationwide.

As a former high school teacher, he gave my peers and I good advice to do well in high school. I've never enjoyed science classes that much, but I enjoyed Mr. Impink's class.
