National Coming Out Day

Hi Allen School,

Today is National Coming Out day, a day to celebrate lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and queer (LGBTQ) awareness! Come to the Atrium, to get a rainbow sticker, a pronoun pin, ask us about other Allen School LGBTQ events throughout the year, or simply to say hi!
While we celebrate this day of coming out, we acknowledge that there are many ways for LGBTQ individuals to exist, with or without being out. This article nicely touches upon why NCOD should be taken with a grain of salt!
Cheers,
Maarten Sap, PhD student, on behalf of the Allen School Diversity Committee
