The Office of Multicultural Education and Counseling Center would like to invite all current students to participate in Gathered this semester.

Gathered is a self-care workshop series and open forum for students to talk about race, ethnicity, cultural identity, and current events impacting them at Holy Cross and beyond. Additionally, students will have the opportunity to engage in activities to ground themself in self-care practices as an effort to reclaim their space and energy.

The space and conversations will center the experiences and voices of people of color.

Though Pride month is coming to an end, the resources, love and education will continue! Flip through to find a book, show, or movie to put on your list. Additionally, find a list of LGBTQIA+ resources both local and national included in the post!

The first Pride was a Riot! Today marks the 52nd Anniversary of the Stonewall Riots. Swipe to learn a bit about those riots in the summer of 69’ in NYC which paved the way for the LGBTQIA+ community.

Today marks 6 years since the United States Supreme Court ruled in favor to legalize same s*x marriages. We look back on this victory as a significant milestone on the long road towards lived and legal equality for LGBTQIA+ families.

Members of the class of 25’, 24’ and transfer students CHECK YOUR EMAILS!
