Now living in New Bedford, Sweet enjoys the New England area, but was a bit taken aback by UMD's appearance. Sweet is also considering creating a coffee lounge for students in a designated area within the library. The Dean of Library Science's office is located at the rear of the third floor. Sweet encourages comments and ideas on how the library can be improved. BiGaLA is an activist, social, and support group that abides by a level of confidentiality.
Activists participate on a volunteer basis.
All students are welcome. The BiGaLA organization is made of fifteen to twenty student members and twelve faculty members. They hold four meetings a month, including two social meetings and two activist meetings. Last month, BiGaLA celebrated Gay Pride Week which included a supporters luncheon, a night at the Java Phi Java coffee house, and a discussion panel for all students and faculty. BiGaLA has worked with The Women's Resource Center and SAB in the past, and feels that involvement with other school organizations is crucial.
