| No One Way to be a Morehouse Man |
| Why can't a Morehouse man wear a fierce pair of Jimmy Choos to class? |
| |
| Morehouse College has it all wrong again. In what administrators call an effort to uphold the private, all-male university's legacy and reputation, they recently approved a new “Appropriate Attire Policy.” Among typical clothing standards, the policy goes on to state, “No wearing of clothing associated with women’s garb (dresses, tops, tunics, purses, pumps, etc.) on the Morehouse campus or at College-sponsored events.” |

| We Are Everywhere… Right? |
| How Many LGBT People are Out There? |
| by Sarah Holmes |
| |
Many of us have heard the old adage that 10% of any given population is gay (meaning that, out of my high school graduating class of 150, there are 15 other queers). This percentage is supposedly based on the 1948 and 1953 studies published by Alfred Kinsey and I've been wondering for a while if there is any truth in that figure. Or, does it really matter? |

| What is Queer Pride? |
| by Stephen Collingsworth, Jr. |
| |
| Well, first, let’s start with what Queer Pride Isn’t…It isn’t parties and dances where you shake your ass...It isn’t chalkings that quote the bible, or telling people "we’re here, we’re queer, get over it." Queer pride isn’t about a day, a week, a month, a parade, or any of those things. Queer pride is about the small things. |

| What Would the Bishop Say? |
| LGBT Understanding at Religious Colleges & Universities |
| by Joseph T. Amodeo |
| |
| America’s private Christian universities can in fact be accepting of LGBT students. Colleges just like Saint Rose are all over the country, and these universities are starting to become more and more inclusive of LGBT students. However, we cannot let the momentum die… Together we can achieve the goal of making all of America’s schools safe. |

| Lavender Graduation |
| A Time for Celebration |
| by Ronni Sanlo, Ph.D. |
| |
| It was like magic. Who would have thought that such an event would take place here as an officially recognized part of commencement? Until 1995, there were no ceremonies to honor LGBT students for graduation. There were ceremonies for students of various ethnicities and for other non-academic groups like ROTC, but nothing for LGBT and Ally students. |
