PRIDE, is a LGBT activism group on campus. We are planning for the annual day of silence on Friday, April 25th.

This commemorates the silence that LGBT people and their allies face on a daily basis and those who have been silenced forever due to murder caused by hate.

There will be a rally at 5:00. A Night of Noise will follow, starting at 6:30pm.

Also, anyone with technical experience on sound systems are desperately needed for the 25th and the day of noise on the 26th. If anyone has questions about this or would like to participate, there is a planning meeting Wednesday, April 23:

Day of Silence Planning Meeting
When: Wed, Apr 23, 9pm – 10pm
Where: LGBT Office (323 Illini Union)
Description: Committee meeting for planning campus events for the Day of Silence.
