Freshman Retreat #23 Jim Lies, C.S.C. n Friday-Saturday, April 9-10, I wish I could tell you how many nights I've been awakened or kept awake by cheers St. Joe Hall and jeers of "Zahm's Gay!" or worse. It's a chant heard o Targeted Dorms: Badin, Breen- outside of Zahm Hall all too often. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to realize that those Phillips, Keough, Knott, Lyons, who yell it are not seriously accusing us of being a residence hall entirely peopled by gay men; nor would it seem that they are accusing us of being light-hearted, or lively, Pasqurilla East, Stanford, Welsh which might capture an earlier incarnation of the word. So why do they choose to use the term "gay" to offend the men of Zahm? Why is the self-designation of legitimate “What’s the Future of this and full members of our community hurled as a derogatory and derisive insult?

The hazards in addressing this issue in any public forum are rooted in the fact thatb Ordination to the Presbyterate many members of this community have such divergent and strident views on the issue.

Can we be reminded too often that the second of the Great Commandments demands that we love our neighbor as ourselves?

The distinction is Celebrant: Rev. Edward A.

Whatever one may think of the Church's teaching on this Sacrament of Confirmation matter, one thing is clear: there is no room in it for hatred and derision directed toward Monday, April 12, 7:30 p.m. our gay and lesbian brothers and sisters. Nor ought there be room for it here at Notre Basilica of the Sacred Heart Dame; and yet there seems to be.

But the fact Bishop John D’Arcy presiding. is, some of our number are; and the even sadder fact is that some of those who are cast­ ing scorn with their cheers of "Zahm's Gay!" are gay themselves.
