During the week of 3 – 7 May 2004, Bethlehem University
hosted Brother Peter Iorlano, Assistant Provincial
of the Long Island-New England Province of the De
La Salle Brothers, USA.
Brother Vincent Malham, President-Vice Chancellor,
provided Brother Peter with a schedule for his visit
which included opportunities to meet faculty and
students of the University community in various settings
so as to facilitate an understanding of the daily
challenges as well as new developments and accomplishments
taking place on campus. Students greeted Brother
Peter in the University garden and the Millennium
Hall Lounge, speaking about their experiences and
student needs at Bethlehem University. Faculty from
the English and Social Sciences Department met with
Brother Peter to discuss the academic curriculum
and the Lasallian formation of faculty and students.
Brother Peter commented on his visit by saying: “Certainly
I enjoyed my visit here very much, and I have been
impressed with the warm welcome that I have received
here. My heart has been touched by the openness and
the friendliness of the young people and the spirit
of the people here despite their hardships.”
