This is the kick-off event for Awareness Week 1998. Students just bring your appetites and enjoy a home-cooked meal.
Many students first identify as lesbian, gay, or bisexual during university.
The university environment has a significant impact on this process. Dr. Evans will present the results of a study examining the coming out experiences of 20 lesbian, gay, and bisexual students living in residence halls. How students approached coming out, ways in which they made meaning of their experiences, and the environmental conditions that affected them will be discussed. Dr. Nancy Evans is an Associate Professor in the Department of Educational Leadership and Policy Studies. She frequently speaks and consults on gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender issues on college campuses.
