LGBTQ+ Allies Needed
LGBTQ+ allies are needed to help disperse information to LGBTQ+ students (both undergraduate and graduate) who have graduated in spring 2020, summer 2020 and/or who will graduate in fall 2020. We are seeking the support of our incredible UARK LGBTQ+ allies to help us reach students who have graduated in recent semesters, so we can ensure we are celebrating each and every recent LGBTQ+ Razorback graduate.
Graduating and recently graduated students are invited to participate in a virtual Lavender Graduation Ceremony at 11 a.m. Saturday, Nov. 14. Pickup dates and times for stoles and other items will be announced at a later date.
Graduating students are encouraged to RSVP via the following two links:
- https://uark.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZEqcuusrDMuG9F4zzoitEQhZz-ua49FNAyA
- https://hogsync.uark.edu/submitter/form/start/443866.
We are seeking support from our incredible allies to assist in dispersing this information.
