Today (Friday, April 27th), is the National Day of Silence. It is a day during which people all across the country take a vow of silence in order to call attention to the silencing affect of anti-LGBTQ bullying. To commemorate this, there will be a Silent Demonstration in the Tillman Lobby from 12pm-4pm, and we'll be tabling in the MarketPlace to direct people toward the demonstration. Later, join us for our Night of Noise (LGBTQ Prom) in UU-206/209 at 8pm! There will be a DJ, selfie station, special performances, and tons of FREE FOOD! We'll be breaking the silence with a celebration our community, so come dressed in whatever makes you feel best! 💃✨ Prom is free to attend, but any and all donations received will benefit the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.

Due to yesterday's tragic event on campus and classes being cancelled today, we have decided to cancel all of our events for tonight. We are deeply saddened by the loss of a fellow student and send our sincerest condolences to his loved ones and all those effected. If you or anyone you know is in need of support, then we urge you to please reach out for help. As always, we are here for you, your RAs are here for you, and there are plenty of resources available to you on campus including the Binghamton University Counseling Center, the Dean of Students Office, the Q Center, and the Multicultural Resource Center. Our hearts, thoughts, and encouragement are with you. Warmly, The Rainbow Pride Union Executive Board

As you may know, elections for the SA Executive Board are tomorrow (Tuesday, March 20th)! --- After listening to and reading the platforms of all of the candidates, RPU has chosen to endorse the following individuals: President: Jerry Toussaint (https://www.facebook.com/votetoussaint18/) VP for Academic Affairs: Write-in Candidate - Emily Lubin (https://www.facebook.com/EmilyLubinVPAA/) --- We were disappointed that only three candidates made an effort to reach out to us this year. With everything that's been going on lately in terms of the campus climate, we think it is increasingly important to support the candidates who support us and who have the best interests of the LGBTQ+ community on campus in mind. We believe that Jerry and Emily are the most qualified candidates for President and VP of Academic Affairs, respectively, and that their platforms are the most inclusive of the needs of LGBTQ+ students.  Have a great night, and don't forget to vote tomorrow! #binghamtonu #binghamtonrpu #binghamtonuniversity #rainbowprideunion #lgbtqbinghamton
