Making History

On Monday morning this week, the Student Government at Eastern University voted for Refuge to become an official, school-sanctioned club on campus.

The vote was 11 Yes, ZERO No, and 4 Abstained.

As I've written before, I personally have a lot invested in the success of Refuge, and I am so very proud of the students Sanctuary Collective has been supporting there. They're celebrating their success tonight, and it's a well-deserved celebration!

My alma mater is one step closer to being a safe place for LGBTQ people to study and thrive in community. Take heart from your successes, friends, and keep up the good work.
