“Anyone that has ever met Mr. Beecher knows him by his smile or his bow tie, but he is more than just a teacher.”

The six 2024 Mr. Canisius finalists all had their photo taken with a faculty member of their choice during the seniors' fun-filled final day of school.

Here is why Evan Galvin ’24 chose teacher Dennis Beecher ’88

“From Head of House to Rock Climbing Club organizer, and every retreat or club in between, Mr. Beecher exemplifies what it means to be a Man for Others," said Galvin, who is from East Aurora, attended East Aurora Middle School and is headed to the United States Military Academy. "His commitment to the Canisius community is among the most inspiring attributes of his character.

“Anyone that has ever met Mr. Beecher knows him by his smile or his bow tie, but he is more than just a European History teacher. From freshmen orientation to the Grad at Grad project, Mr. Beecher has always been a person I have looked up to.”

Beecher’s thoughts on Galvin:

“At Canisius I truly believe we are teaching future leaders of the world. Young men like Evan Galvin make me optimistic about our future and proud to be a teacher at Canisius.

“Evan is a young man with integrity, who embodies the Ignatian idea of compassion. I could not have been more impressed with his humility, generosity and character. Evan excels at everything he does because of his hard work and commitment."

A Mr. Canisius finalist and faculty member will be featured every day this week.

All of the finalists, along with the reflections they wrote about their time at Canisius, are at canisiushigh.org/mrcanisius 

The 63rd Mr. Canisius will be announced at our Senior Awards on Tuesday.
