Students will gather to hear four energized student speakers who will participate in a highly selective application process; last year’s speakers received a $250 book award from Buzzfunds. In addition, several student organizations will provide entertainment e.g. spoken word, stepping, singing, dance, and various cultural celebrations. The event culminates with over 40 student organizations lighting a candle on behalf of Dr. King. At the reception, students stayed around for hours to congratulate the speakers and talk about the meaning of the holiday. Last year, the student committee provided an opportunity for students to reflect by posting their thoughts on white boards.

]]><![CDATA[Trans Day of Remembrance]]>27244 Trans Day of Remembrance commemorates and honors transgender people who have lost their lives to violence throughout the past year. So far in 2016, 23 transgender people have been murdered in the U.S. - that we know of - and the majority of these are trans women of color.
This year, the LGBTQIA Resource Center will be hosting a special walk-through space for all members of the Georgia Tech community. Drop by room 320 in the Student Center any time between 11am and 1pm on Friday, 18th November to:
Sit in quiet reflection in our vigil space where you can learn about and honor the trans folks who have been taken from us this year
Move through our Information Station where you can learn facts and stats about trans communities in the U.S. and information about the climate for trans students and employees at Tech
Visit our Action Station to learn practical tips for creating a more trans-inclusive environment in your classroom, residence hall, workplace, or student organization
We'll have free refreshments for you to enjoy while you spend time in our Reflect, Learn, Act space, and plenty of resource guides and handouts for you to take away.
