Mt. Irenaeus supplements a Bonaventure education, fostering students' growth

            ST. BONAVENTURE (April 18) – Barry Gan, a St. Bonaventure University philosophy professor, refused to participate in an on-campus active-shooter emergency drill two years ago, conducting class off campus that day.
            Gan and his students met at Sprague’s Maple Farms in Portville that morning. After breakfast, he conducted class at his house in Olean, said Gan, director of the Center for Nonviolence.
            “I would’ve happily done that at Mt. Irenaeus,” said Gan.
