5th Annual GSA Leadership Summit

2/22/2012

Hi all! It has been busy in the office preparing for this year's Diversity Monologue contest so apologizes for the lack of posts. Just wanted to let you know about an amazing opportunity this coming weekend here on campus. The 5th Annual GSA Leadership Summit will occur this Saturday from 10am-5pm. Robyn Ochs, an award winning activist and the editor of the 42 country anthology, "Getting Bi: Voices of Bisexuals Around the World", will be this year's keynote speaker.
Tomorrow night, open to all, is a "Drive-In" Workshop Series with Robyn Ochs. She will be holding a Challenging Heterosexism workshop in Adams Basement from 3pm-430pm. Later that evening she will be holding a Beyond Binaries: Identity and Sexuality workshop, exploring the landscape of sexual orientation. This event will be in the Social Hall from 6pm-7:45pm.
Try to stop by one or more of these events as Robyn Ochs is someone you surely do not want to miss! Hope you all have a wonderful weekend

Voices of The People

A new initiative out of the Office of Diversity Initiatives, Voices of the People, seeks to connect voices from our collective past to our collective present and future. Based off of the work of the late Howard Zinn, author of A People’s History of the United States, VOTP gives voice to the often silenced and marginalized voices throughout history, be it major historical events or movements. We believe that understanding our past in a holistic way is integral to continuing to understand the present and future. We believe in the power of storytelling and thereby highlighting the power of one’s voices to accomplish our mission.
