Monthly Programs
Food for Thought
Food for Thought is a monthly discussion group where students voice their opinions and learn about topics of interest over lunch provided by the center. Representatives from a BSU department or student group are frequently invited to discuss a GLBTA topic that intersects with their discipline or area of interest. This is a great way to get to know people on campus that you might not otherwise have the opportunity to meet and to learn more about BSU resources for GLBTA students. This is a student-run program.
Wednesdays: February 6, March 6, April 3, and May 1.
12:30 - 1:30 pm

Coming Out Discussion Group
A group for those considering coming out, those who may have difficulty coming out, and those who wish to support them.  This is a student-run program.
Tuesdays: January 29, February 26, March 26, and April 30.

Queer People of Color Discussion Group
Too often, GLBT students of color feel like they must prioritize one of their identities above the other. GLBTA spaces, being a microcosm of our larger society, have been known to disenfranchise people of color. Likewise, communities of color, also microcosms of our larger society, have been known to disenfranchise GLBTA individuals. This dichotomy places queer students of color and their allies in the unfair position of feeling like they must choose between their race or their sexual orientation or gender identity. We at the Pride Center seek to be a safe place where GLBTA students of color are actively supported and affirmed.
The student developers of this program extend an invitation to all members of the BSU community to join us in open and honest discussions of racism and white privilege alongside discussions of cisgender and heterosexual privilege.
Tuesdays: February 5, March 5, and April 9.
5 - 6 pm

+1
Plus One is a discussion group for individuals in the GLBT community who do not identify exclusively as gay or lesbian. In other words, those with a non-monosexual sexual orientation. As with all of our programs, allies are always welcome.
Non-monosexuality is an umbrella term that refers to when individuals have the capacity for sexual attraction to more than one gender. Bisexuality is the most recognized group of non-monosexual identities, but the term also includes people who identify as pansexual, omnisexual, fluid, flexisexual, and sometimes queer.
