Protecting the Queerest Generation:

The first-ever Queer Caucus symposium kicks off this Wednesday, March 1st at 6pm. We have an excellent group of speakers lined up and would love to have a strong turnout from our membership and the law school at large.

Learn about the work of the Gay-Straight Alliance Network, a youth-led organization that networks school-based GSAs throughout California to one another and community resources. The panelists will be discussing the founding of the organization, their work advocating the courts and legislature to expand protections for queer students, and their experiences agitating at the grassroots level for safe schools. Food will be served.
