Big Gay Callout!!

To our loving Queer and Queer Friendly Community:

The Purdue Queer Student Union proudly presents our fall semester "Big Gay Callout!!" It will be taking place on Thursday, September 4th at 7pm in WTHR 200!

The callout is open to anyone, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity. It's just called the "Big Gay Callout" because it's a tradition, not because we mean to exclude anyone!

Purdue Queer Student Union is inviting campus and community groups to come present at the "Big Gay Callout" to show the wealth of resources and
opportunities available to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and ally students at Purdue and in the surrounding community. To present, please contact our President, the lovely Clare Ford, by Tuesday!

Hope to see you there!!

Jessica Lee :)

BGR Freshmen!

To our loving Queer and Queer Friendly Community:

Let's all give a warm welcome to the incoming freshmen!  Currently going on this week is Purdue's Boiler Gold Rush [BGR], an orientation for incoming freshmen.  Members of the board and other organizations held an info session titled "What's Queer about Purdue" on Monday and Tuesday for BGR.  We introduced the freshmen to the various resources available at Purdue, and got them motivated to join in on the fun.

Also on Tuesday, BGR had an activities fair in the Armory, in which PQSU had a table.  We got many new faces to join the listserve, or just plain take our stickers and keychains.

Headsup!  This Saturday the QRC will be open from 11 to 1 as part of an Open House, also geared to introducing freshmen to the office.  And mark your calendars!  The Big Gay Callout will be on September 4th.  Details soon to come.
