Allies of BC rally for GLBT

On September 19, 2008, about a hundred students joined the Allies
organization of Boston College in a rally to support of BC's Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgendered, and Questioning (GLBTQ)community.

The Allies' new "I Support Love" campaign encourages students to support love at BC in all forms. Several students and faculty spoke out against intolerance and homophobia at BC while many joined in supporting the GLBTQ community at he event. "My best friend's gay and I don't see him as any different than my room mates," said Allies President Diana Nearhos, "It's about being accepting and welcoming of others."
