Queer Mentoring and Queer Conference

First, an exciting update on the Resource Room.  We're getting a new coat of paint!  The back room has some pretty sad looking water stains and such, so Lynn, who as previously mentioned is awesome, contacted Physical Plant and they're going to paint for us sometime over the next few weeks.  So, if you stop by and the room looks a mess, it's only temporary.  After the new coat of paint, I'll be getting some great new decorations and additions to spruce things up thanks to Sabrina Brown in the Office of Multicultural Affairs.  It looks like most of our budget will go to developing the room itself, but we do have a pretty great basic library and a very great wish list if you want to check either out (see the Resource Room tab).  I'll have a checkout sheet available for the library sometime soon.

This week is short because of the Fourth.  Happy (day after) Independence Day, everyone!  At the moment, I'm doing a few different and kind of unrelated things.  First, here's a survey to gauge interest in an LGBT conference at Rhodes.  Please take a minute to give some feedback on current ideas and let us know if you're interested.  This summer, an LGBT Peer Mentoring Program that will launch in August is also in development.  Woo!  Here is one example of a similar mentoring program.  Look for the application and more information soon.
