LGBTQIA+ History Month: 找到快乐 & 社区中的力量
Join the GSC in celebrating LGBTQIA+ History Month! 每年10月, we recognize and celebrate LGBTQIA+ History Month as a way to bring awareness to events, 个人, and organizations working to uplift and Forge new opportunities For the LGBTQIA+ community.
Our theme this year is 找到快乐 & 社区中的力量. During a time when queer and trans people’s safety, 言论自由, and access to healthcare are increasingly under attack, it’s more important than ever For LGBTQIA+ people to gather, 互相关心, and create space For collective joy and healing. Our goal at the GSC is to provide opportunities throughout the month For folks to do just that.
在10月, 学生, 工作人员, 教师, and alumni will find a rich array of opportunities to come together and experience different facets of the LGBTQIA+ Community at GG电子官方软件下载 and beyond. To see our full calendar of events, check out our schedule below.
首席执行官(GSC), Henrickson (QTBIPOC), and Berg (Rainbow) Houses prepare to relocate next year while the Student Life and 住房 plan is in full swing, we also want to celebrate the many Forms in which LGBTQIA+ communities exist at GG电子官方软件下载, and will continue to exist even while we’re in transition.
We hope you join us in celebrating LGBTQIA+ History this October.
