Subsequent monthly meetings are held on the second Wednesday of every month in EL 102.
Wednesday, September 25: Coffee Talk Our first Coffee Talk of the year will be at 5 PM on Wednesday, September 25 in Gazes 125. Coffee talks are informal round table discussions where we often bring a guest speaker in from the community to address a GLBT topic on medicine and social issues. Coffee talks are held on the last Wednesday of every month at Gazes auditorium located at 114 Doughty street. Guest speakers from past years included Shane Snowden from the Human Rights Campaign, Dr. O'Kennon on LGBT Mental Health Maintenace, Melissa Moore from We Are Family, Mark Jones, a historian and author who runs Black Cat Tours, Tom Robinson of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, members of South Carolina Equaliy and the Charleston School of Law, and insight from our own members on being Gay in the match. We thank all of our past speakers and look forward to another equally exciting line up of speakers for this upcoming school year.
