The Weekend Combo Workshop is an opportunity for learners to get a broad overview of much of the LGBTQ+ Culture Center’s training curriculum, all in one day.

This workshop covers the material contained in the following workshops: Intro to Sexuality, Intro to Gender, How to Be an Effective Ally, and Queer Oppression & Joy. This will be an in-person only session, occurring in the Neal Marshall Black Culture Center’s Grand Hall. We will have a 40-minute break for lunch, which will be provided.
Training Outreach Program
The Training Outreach Program is an opportunity to engage your department, office, student organization, or Greek organization in the challenging yet vital work of institutional equity for LGBTQ+ people. We will spend 1 hour learning about issues facing the LGBTQ+ community in general, followed by another hour discussing how your organization, specifically, can work towards equity. Learn more here!
