CHICO, Calif.- The Associated Students Gender and Sexuality
Equity Center (GSEC) and the Office of Diversity and Inclusion are hosting an
LGBTQ+ Welcome Reception for students who are looking to build new alliances and
friendships on campus. The reception gives students a chance to learn about the
services and resources on campus, along with getting to know the faculty,
staff, and students in the LGBTQ+ community. There will be a raffle and free
food available at the event. Please come join us on Wednesday, September 25th,
from 3:30pm-5:00pm in Selvester’s Café on campus for new friendships,
alliances, and some fun!
The reception will be kicked off
with an introduction made by our LGBTQ+ Program Coordinator, Sarena Kirk, and
the LGBTQ+ faculty and staff of California State University, Chico. Students
will have the opportunity to hear about, and network with, community and campus
organizations who will speak briefly about their programs and upcoming events
in addition to informational tabling. Attendees can enjoy Roots Catering
vegetarian appetizers and raffle prizes provided throughout the event.
The Office of Diversity and
Inclusion is committed to cultivating a culturally inclusive environment where
diversity of thought and expression are valued, respected, appreciated and
celebrated. It serves as a resource to our campus community by providing
information, referrals, advocacy, coordination and support for diversity-related
events, activities, initiatives and discussions.
The
Associated Students Gender and
Sexuality Equity Center [GSEC] is a student run activist organization
which strives to empower all students through its two programs: the Women’s
Program and the LGBTQ+ Program. The GSEC challenges societal norms that have
been used to oppress and marginalize by providing opportunities for leadership,
personal development, and referral services. We offer a safe and inclusive
space where the campus and community can effectively support the academic
mission of the university.
