We met on Wednesday (10 November) – here are the highlights:
- We had four people attend the Safe Zone training that was held at the end of October and bravely facilitated by Dan Colleran.
- It was announced that the Tom Affholder LGBT Leadership Award has increased in value from $250 to $1000 – make sure to apply (or encourage students to apply)!
- Several students are conducting Undergraduate Research projects centered on the LGBT community. Katka Showers-Curtis and Ashley Ann Struck are researching faculty understanding of LGBT issues, while Alli Blanchard is focusing on the LGBTQA student experience at Whitewater.
- Chief Kiederlen attended the meeting in order to discuss the recent hate crimes that have occurred on campus.
