LAST CALL!
Your seat at the table is waiting!

Committee applications are officially closing this Monday. If you’ve been thinking about joining, this is your sign to take the leap.

Submit your application before the deadline and be part of something bigger.

This month, we celebrate the courage of people who choose authenticity in a world that often asks them to shrink, hide, or conform. We honor every story, every identity, and every journey toward self-discovery and self-acceptance.

As a community grounded in the Arts and Social Sciences, we recognize that diversity is something to value, learn from, and celebrate. Every voice adds depth to our collective story, and every identity deserves dignity, respect, and the freedom to exist without fear.

To those who continue to live their truth, to those still finding their voice, and to those who stand in solidarity: this month is for you.

Be proud of who you are.
Be proud of who you're becoming.
Be proud because you were born to be nothing less than yourself.

Happy Pride Month!
