The Cant� is open this week so if you're on campus, DO drop by and visit. Queer events this week are at a low ebb but we urge your queer self to take a hike . . . literally! It won't be long until Fall quarter starts and whether you're a student, staff or faculty member, you'll be inside most of your waking hours. Get your supply of vitamin D and do something fun outdoors with queer & allied friends!

What Has The Cant�
Done For You?

Donate to keep Kate, a pansexual college student, in school. Kate's family stopped financially supporting her because of her queer identity, but you can lend a hand here!
Did you know that if YOU are a queer student whose family has cut you off from financial support due to your queerness, Financial Aid and the Cantu will help you? Contact Director Deb for more information.

Director Deb just met with a very cool yoga instructor and we're putting plans in place to offer a "queer inspired gentle yoga class" this Fall. The trans focused self-defense classes offered in Spring quarter were so well received, we're wanting to offer more modalities for helping queer students reconnect with their bodies and spirits in gentle, loving ways.
Lesley is busy greeting incoming students during Orientation Days--we love the enthusiasm and queer friendliness of our student visitors!
