We are JAMMING with getting everything ready to welcome students to our sweet queer spot in the woods! RA's and NA's have been dropping by the center to arm themselves with SAFE SPACE cards and other resources. Students are wandering in, which gets us way excited about the rest who will be coming before long. We are working on some exciting new projects for the upcoming year, and want YOU involved!
With a little luck, the center will have freshly scrubbed carpets by the time you arrive!
