Who
are we?
Angles
is a queer - straight alliance formed to provide and encourage the
support, education, and visibility of gay - lesbian - bisexual - transgendered
concerns and issues in the Willamette / TIUA community. Our aim is
to create an awareness and celebration of differing perspectives and
lifestyles.
We
are here as a support group for queer and questioning students who
are in the process of coming to terms with their sexuaity. Also, as
guides and friends to those undertaking the brave and confusing journey
of COMING OUT!!!
When
and where?
We
meet every Wednesday at 9 pm in the Women's Center, on the 3rd floor
of the Putnam University Center.
What
do we do?
We
hold weekly meetings wherein the campus queer community can find a
safe place to talk and be themselves. Also, our meetings serve as
a platform through which we organize campus-wide events and activism.
Movie nights, ribbon campaigns, tabling in Goudy, activism, working
with other student groups, clubbing in Portland... whatever comes
up! Check out our events!
What
are we here for?
This
year our priorities can be summed up in a word: AWARENESS! We aim
to increase visibility on our campus and rattle the bones of the Willamette
puritan ideal. Avowed enemies of peer pressure and conformity, we
aim to be OURSELVES in all the multicolored splendor of our diversity,
and through example steer the campus towards mental and cultural freedom.
Who
is welcome?
Everyone!
Gay, straight, lesbian, bisexual, transsexual, asexual, obsessed or
lethargic, there is a place for you here.
