The U of A P.R.I.D.E. RSO is excited to announce its official kick-off event and comeback for the 2021-22 school year!

P.R.I.D.E., which stands for People Respecting Individual Differences and Equality, is an organization dedicated to providing a supportive social and academic environment for the LBGTQ+ community and allies on campus. The RSO offers students at the University of Arkansas who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, queer, transgender and gender non-conforming, and all other sexual and gender identities a place to be who they are, exist authentically, and make friends and build community with other queer and queer-allied individuals.

The weekly meetings are a space to connect and interact with other community members and allies on campus. New and returning members are welcome to come out and enjoy some games and music, get a bite to eat, and come and go as they please. Join us for our big kick-off at 4 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 16 in Graduate Education Building 343. We're so excited to see you!

If you have any questions or want more information about P.R.I.D.E., please feel free to reach out to pride@uark.edu. RSVP using the QR code in the image or at https://forms.office.com/r/U20KQYjBy7.
