Tonight, our resolution was presented and opened up for debate in the Student Government Association. The resolution stated that, given the present conditions for the LGBTQ community on campus, plus the issues our community faces nationally, the SGA supports the initiative to establish an LGBTQ resource center on campus.
I’m proud to say, the resolution passed unanimously. When openned up for debate, three people were able to stand (due to time constraints)…all three of those students spoke in support for the initiative for a multitude of reasons. (Even ones I hadn’t thought of.) With the events of tonight, I’m reassured that our student body is supportive, and that this cause is just.
My only hope now is that we don’t lose momentum and lose all of this potential. Its a special time on our campus…a time where, the students that are here now can create change that will echo across generations of students. If anyone is looking for a way to leave their mark on campus, I believe this is a real way to do it. Not just because its just, but because its attainable.
How much more do you think it’ll take?
Never lose your passion. Always respond with love,

I’m so proud of you
