Gamma Rho Lambda to host national conference, and needs your help!
The following message comes from Stephanie Brandt, a member of Gamma Rho Lambda.
Gamma Rho Lambda will be hosting a national conference, Out and Greek, right here at K-State on November 19-22, 2009. The goal of this conference is to help to educate leaders on our campus and many others about LGBTQ issues and concerns.
Out and Greek is a leadership conference that teaches how to create a safer and more inclusive LGBTQ experience on campus. This conference will be attended by many different organizations from Kansas and the neighboring states who are interested in helping the LGBTQ community have a place on their campus. Most of the attendees will be presidents of other sororities, fraternities, and student groups.
Approximately 100 people expected to be in attendance, many of them are not from the immediate area. The women of Gamma Rho Lambda, are looking for accommodations for some of the guests, and hoping your chapter may be interested in serving as over-night hosts. We realize that we would not be able to find a place for all hundred of our guests so we thought that if possible, anyone who was interested in staying on campus could fill out an application. To express you interest, please contact Stephanie by email or at (785) 477-9669.
