Folx! Join us for lunch to kick-off Eugene Pride on Friday, August 10 at 12 pm in the EMU Falling Sky. A Friday lunch you say? Yes! Because it’s Summer and we know grad students, faculty, and staff are still on campus and need to eat lunch! We also LGBT+ in STEM decals for you! Some come socialize, kick off Eugene Pride, and grab a decal to share your rainbow brain.

Additionally, be on the look-out around the science complex for posters of LGBT+ scientists we admire! These posters are a way to create visibility throughout the sciences. If you would like a poster set to hang-up, please let us know. If you have a scientist you think we should profile, send us an email by Thursday, August 2.

Here’s to Eugene Pride!

LGBT+ in STEM is looking to fill a position on the Leadership Board. Our leadership board runs as an ad-hoc committee of 4 people. We meet about once a month to plan upcoming social events or educational events and discuss current issues at the cross-section of the LGBT+ community and the sciences.

What: Seeking nominations for a vacant seat on the leadership board
Who: Any graduate student, faculty, or staff in the sciences who identifies as LGBT+
Nominations can be peer or self nominated
When: Nominations are open from January 12 until 5 pm on January 26, 2018.

Nominees will be contacted by the board and asked to submit a few sentences about what you would bring to the board/LGBT+ in STEM organization and why you would like to be involved.
