QSOCC Committee Planning Meeting

QSOCC Planning Committee Meetings are going on now! Meetings happen every other Friday evening 5-6:30 pm in the DSOL Conference Room (4th floor Smith). If you are interested in helping to shape the next inter/national conference by and for Queer Students of Color please let Jayvin and I know.

The Queer Students of Color conference is a Queer Student of Color initiated and led conference providing resources and tools for campus and community change to Queer Student of Color and their allies. It provides resources, leadership training, and skill building.

If you have not been through volunteer training but are still interested in participating, please let me know. All QRC volunteers need to go through our 1-3 hour training before participating in a Committee. 

Trans Day of Remembrance Planning

Trans Day of Remembrance planning is starting soon. Committee meetings will start in late September but folks who are interested in being involved should get in touch with Kirsten and I as soon as possible.

TDOR was set aside to memorialize those who were killed due to anti-trans hatred or prejudice. PSU celebrates the lives of those we have lost and asks us to think more deeply, critically, and intersectionally about violence against members of the trans community and those caught up in anti-trans hatred related crimes.

If you have not been through volunteer training but are still interested in participating, please let me know. All QRC volunteers need to go through our 1-3 hour training before participating in a Committee. 

Coming Out Week Committee

The Committee to plan Coming Out Week events is meeting now. Volunteers who want to help shape the events planned for C.O.W. should contact both Monica and I to let us know. The next planning meeting is scheduled for Thursday August 25th at 2:30 pm.

If you have not been through volunteer training but are still interested in participating, please let me know. All QRC volunteers need to go through our 1-3 hour training before participating in a Committee.
