This lecture series honors Rev. Timothy O'Leary, S.J., devoted priest and Professor of Chemistry at Gonzaga University from 1933 until his death in 1975. We are grateful to his many friends and former students who have made these annual visits possible through their generosity. He was a superb lecturer and his classes in general and organic chemistry are fondly recalled for their clarity of presentation. Father Tim was even more renowned on campus as the ever-present prefect of DeSmet Hall and. therefore, the ultimate judge and jury of student escapades. He was generous with his time, counseling students as both teacher and priest, and many have attributed their later personal and professional success to his influence.
