Each fall, the 91²Ö¿â Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender and Queer Plus (LGBTQ+) Center presents a semester kickoff event that provides networking opportunities for new and returning students, faculty and staff, as well as a chance to hear about the LGBTQ+ affirming organizations available on and off campus.
Students can meet with representatives from around the university and learn about campus resources and services. There are also fun activities and giveaways along with chances to win in a student bookstore scholarship drawing!
An Event Kicks Off Each Semester
Helping 91²Ö¿â students feel welcomed, safe and included is at the heart of the university's values, and students who feel a sense of belonging have greater success both socially and academically.
For the spring semester, the center partners with 91²Ö¿â's Women’s Center, Student Multicultural Center, Sexual and Relationship Violence Support Services for Spring Unite Game Night. It is "an evening of games, food, and unity" during which students play board games, Nintendo Switch and Twister to create connections, fellowship and explore identity.
Ken Ditlevson, director of the 91²Ö¿â LGBTQ+ Center, said, "I want to give a big 'shout out' to all of our campus and community partners for helping us have another successful LGBTQ+ Kickoff for the fall 2024 semester!"
