Today (Friday, April 27th), is the National Day of Silence. It is a day during which people all across the country take a vow of silence in order to call attention to the silencing affect of anti-LGBTQ bullying.

To commemorate this, there will be a Silent Demonstration in the Tillman Lobby from 12pm-4pm, and we'll be tabling in the MarketPlace to direct people toward the demonstration.

Later, join us for our Night of Noise (LGBTQ Prom) in UU-206/209 at 8pm! There will be a DJ, selfie station, special performances, and tons of FREE FOOD! We'll be breaking the silence with a celebration our community, so come dressed in whatever makes you feel best! 💃✨

Prom is free to attend, but any and all donations received will benefit the American Foundation for Su***de Prevention.

Due to yesterday's tragic event on campus and classes being cancelled today, we have decided to cancel all of our events for tonight. We are deeply saddened by the loss of a fellow student and send our sincerest condolences to his loved ones and all those effected.

As always, we are here for you, your RAs are here for you, and there are plenty of resources available to you on campus including the Binghamton University Counseling Center, the Dean of Students Office, the Q Center, and the Multicultural Resource Center.
