  LGBTRC Conference Room
 

 It's Out and Proud Week, and what could be
 more awesomely stupendous than celebrating
 the diversity of how our community chooses to
 identify...ourselves! Bisexual, Queer, Fluid,
 Pan-sexual; what are the lived experiences of
 the people who hold these identities? How can
 their experiences help us better understand our own sexuality? What
 are the ways we perpetuate biphobia in our community? Interested in
 what some of the answers might be to these questions? Then come
 join us as we gather to talk about one of the many ways our
 community is special -our varied sexualities! Light snacks and
 refreshments will be provided. Got questions? I hope I have answers.
