It has offered annual assistance in training resident assistants during Hall Staff Orientation, directed CommUnity sessions for first-year students, and presented the “Network” program. The group hosts monthly coffee hours, sponsors topical speakers, and organizes “Solidarity Sunday” and events to mark National Coming Out Day.
