On The Road: Campus Pride goes to Rhodes College in Memphis, TN
Rock n' Roll and southern barbeque.
Well, thanks to a flight delay, I didn't have time to enjoy all of that, but I can see that Memphis is a great place to visit when I have more time.
On The Road: Campus Pride attends ACPA Annual Convention in Washington, D.C.
I am back in Washington, D.C. this week for the ACPA – College Educators International Annual Convention (ACPA). The convention brings together thousands of student affairs professionals who work at colleges and universities across the country in all types of positions (housing, student activities, dean of students, financial aid, greek life, orientation, etc).
On The Road: Washington, D.C. Trip (HRC, NGLTF and *rugby*)
Well, the cherry blossoms have not bloomed yet. But I am in Washington, D.C. today and for the weekend. I actually came early today to do some pre-Camp planning for our Campus Pride Summer Leadership Camp this July. We are planning some extra special activities for the 60+ college students this year. It is very exciting and if you haven’t already, please check out our Campus Pride Camp at http://www.campuspride.org/camp.asp
California: Higher Education Victory on Sexual Orientation Campus Non Discrimination Policies

A federal appeals court on Tuesday gave a major win to public universities and advocates for gay rights who have wanted to preserve in full the institutional anti-bias policies that bar discrimination based on sexual orientation.
On The Road: College Media Advisers National Conference
Campus Pride is spreading the "queer" message.
Today I am at the National College Media Adviser Conference hosted in New York City. There are thousands of college journalists from newspapers across the United States. I used to write for my college newspaper and yearbook, so this brings back memories -- lots of coffee and straight news (LOL). I can't believe that I even met five students from my alma mater Emporia State University. I think they were as shocked as I was.
When the Ex-Gays Come Knocking?

Hmmm. Well this is not a "Knock, Knock" joke. It's for real and serious.

75 attend first-ever OUT & GREEK National Leadership Conference
As an openly gay fraternity man, I had the honor to be the co-editor and writer of the first ever book "Out on Fraternity Row: Personal Accounts of Being Gay in a College Fraternity" that came out in 1998. It was a best seller in the gay community but the reward were the thousands of emails I would receive in the last ten years from LGBT out and, or closeted fraternity and sorority members. Some struggling, some questioning, more celebrating but all of them wanting to be who they are.
