Happy #PronounsDay ! There are a wonderful, wide variety of pronouns out there to celebrate. Asking someone else’s pronouns is as simple as saying “What are your pronouns?” and using them is common courtesy, just like calling someone their name. Learn more about International Pronouns Day at https://pronounsday.org/
a piece i drew for a local queer zine about gendered clothing (and how much it sucks). you can buy it as a print (among other things) on redbubble!
Planning to submit your creative works to our upcoming LGBTQIA+ student journal? Be sure to get your submissions uploaded by the end of today! Open to all OSU students.
Pride Center friends and alumni — let's reconnect! Join us for a fun-filled Saturday on Saturday, May 19. Stop by the Pride Center for a brunch social from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. Get to know current students, visit with old friends and make new ones and learn about opportunities to get involved. The first 25 people to register for the social will receive a complimentary ticket to the annual OSU Spring Drag Show where we will sit together and enjoy a fantastic show put on by the Rainbow Continuum student organization. Childcare will be provided during the show (indicate if it is needed on the registration form). The drag show will start at 7 p.m.
Can’t wait to see y’all!

On this, the day of lesbians, I’m thinking of the trans lesbians, the nb lesbians, the they/them lesbians, the lesbians afraid to call themselves lesbians for fear of being considered not lesbian enough, who exist on the ontological borders of the term and feel displaced between identities. This day is for you. And you deserve everything.
Join us and listen others’ stories, and share your own. We are spilling the tea on white supremacy, and discussing discrimination and social constructs.
The event will take place at the Centro Cultural César Chávez on the 1st of May from 5:30 - 7:00 PM.

Come to our events for winter term 2018! Indulge your queeriosities and get connected, y'all. 💖
"The API Anthology project at Oregon State University aims to create a platform for members of Asian and Pacific Islander communities to tell their stories and share their thoughts on current events through various mediums in a more personal way. We hope that providing this opportunity will aid in the self-expressions of those in the community and inadvertently lead to the critical analyses of the intersectional identities within our communities."
Hey folx! If you haven't yet, please check out the amazing student work being collected and shared in the Oregon State University Asian & Pacific Cultural Center’s API Anthology!
And we may be biased, but we think you should definitely read the poem "Running Towards You" by our very own student staff member/poet/visionary/social change agent Christine! 💖🌈We are so proud of them!

Join us to hear community members share their experiences with the legal name and gender marker change process. This panel will include Lorena Reynolds, Managing Attorney at the Reynolds Law Firm, PC in Corvallis, who has handled cases for trans and nonbinary clients for almost 20 years. Come for advice and community support!
After growing up with a disability, I thought being excluded from public restrooms was a relic of my past, not a part of my — and thousands of other trans people’s — futures.
Oregon State University responds to setback of trans students’ rights:
Members of the Oregon State University community,
Many are concerned about a change in guidance this week from the US Departments of Education and Justice to schools and universities regarding access to restrooms and facilities for transgender students. This change represents a setback for the rights of transgender people that may impact students across the country.
We are writing to assure our community that this change at the federal level will not change Oregon State University values or commitment to ensure an inclusive, safe and accessible university for transgender students and community members -- and all members of the OSU community. As such, Oregon State will continue to pursue gender-inclusive policies and practices.
Additionally, the state of Oregon continues to demonstrate its commitment to inclusive access to facilities through the state’s laws and policies.
OSU demonstrates its commitment to civil rights, inclusivity and access in this area in many ways including:The adoption of a name-in-use policy. The University believes it is important that while attending the University, students are called by the first name they choose to use, regardless of their legal name. This University policy is intended to enhance the wellbeing and academic success of transgender students by allowing an individual’s name to align with their gender identity.
The Task Force on Transgender Issues works to improve the University’s understanding of transgender issues and to propose initiatives to advance the wellbeing, safety and belonging of our transgender community members. The task force is reviewing current policies, practices and the OSU culture related to transgender students, faculty and staff and will offer recommendations to University leadership. Areas of focus include facilities, residential life, athletics and physical education, health services and counseling, and employment conditions.
The continued expansion of gender-inclusive restrooms and facilities throughout the university. A Corvallis campus map of more 125 gender-inclusive restrooms and facilities is provided here. For Cascades campus, a bathroom in Tykeson Hall is labeled all gender. As well, there are also single user restrooms in the dining hall and on every floor of the residence hall.
The campus participation in the #illgowithyou campaign led by the Pride Center. This program encourages people who identify as supportive allies to go into bathrooms or other spaces with people who may be concerned about their safety.
The work of seven student cultural resource centers, including the Pride Center, the Office of Diversity and Cultural Engagement, the Office of Institutional Diversity, the Office of Equal Opportunity and Access, as well as other programs.
Oregon State will continue to provide updates on this and other civil rights matters on the OSU Home Page, as well as the websites of the Office of Institutional Diversity, the Office of Equal Opportunity and Access, the Office of the Dean of Student Life and the Office Diversity and Cultural Engagement.
The new federal guidance points out that federal law continues to protect against any discrimination or harassment based on one’s gender (including transgender) status. Regardless of federal developments, we will remain vigilant in protecting against discrimination and harassment, both of which are unacceptable and are prohibited at Oregon State University.
Sincerely,
Susie Brubaker-Cole Vice Provost for Student Affairs
Scott Vignos Director of Strategic Initiatives Office of Institutional Diversity
