Moving the LGBT college community into the next generation, Campus PrideNet celebrates 5 years this Fall 06.  As part of marking the anniversary, the following new educational services and initiatives are underway, making 06-07 a year of progress and change for the leading national campus network for LGBT student leaders.

Campus PrideNet becomes a full-fledge non-profit and applies for its 501(c)(3) status under the new organizational name Campus Pride. As part of the new affiliation, the Lambda 10 Project for LGBT Fraternity & Sorority Issues (www.lambda10.org) becomes an educational initiative of Campus Pride.  The move makes Campus Pride the only national non-profit serving LGBT and ally student leaders at colleges and universities.
