About

Mission statement:
We believe in the existence of a community specifically for Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transsexual, and Queer Racial/Ethnic minorities (GLBTQREM), as a means for realizing self-expression. To this end we commit ourselves and endeavor to bring about such a community through the following means, including but not limited to: peer mentoring programs for secondary and post-secondary students; community building exercises for GLBTQREMs in order nurture communal solidarity among secondary and post secondary GLBTREMs; and conscious raising campaigns in order to bring attention to GLBTQREM issues.



Objectives for 2010-2011 Academic Year:
(1) Promote Pride and Color within both within the five college community and local community.
(2) Alumni-network for GLBTQREMs
(3) Gather and upload GLBTQ REM for upcoming video archive website
(4) Weekly community meetings
(5) Design and implement at least one conscious raising campaign on each 
five college campus

(6) Assess and expand current GLBTQ REM related five college library collection [media and text]
