I hope everyone enjoyed the Lt. Dan Choi event and thank you for those who came out to listen to him speak at our campus! Also, the Elephant Engine High Dive Revival was a HUGE success!! The place was packed with bodies and the artists just blew away the evening. If you missed out on any events don’t worry! Small groups continue and we have many different events for you all some Pride, some not.

We are in mid-October now so hold on and don’t let go! Thanksgiving is almost here and Pride will try our best to give our faithful members as many chances to come out and relax as much as possible!

Hi All:


 

So we come to the end of Pride Month and indeed nearing the end of another school year. Finals are just around the corner and sooner than you know it, it's summer—finally!


 

But the events are over yet. Along with group meetings we have Hot Safer Sex, presented by W2W, a fun safer sex workshop for women-identified persons. Also, this Tuesday is our Election Day, so come vote for next year's Executive Board.

Hi All:

For those who missed Pride Prom: what were you thinking? The event was spectacular especially live performances, free food, and very loud music. Now you'll have wait another year...And for those who did show up: thanks for making Pride Prom a success! Also special thanks to our DJs and our performers who were the icing to the cake, and Mike Weinberger for...well, being Mike Weinberger.


 

And as Pride Month winds down, that doesn't mean we are out of events. U People, a spectacular, "accidental documentary," will be showing this Thursday on TCOM Day! Also, next week is the National Center for Transgender Equality's Lobby Days, three days of fighting for equality; so remember to register today for your chance to lobby. Also, don't forget April 28th is our very own Election Day for next years officers. This group's is dependent on your vote and your participation. So come, vote, and maybe we'll see something bigger and better than this year's Pride Prom!

Hi All:
 

Pride Month has been eventful so far. And to top everything we've done so far, this Saturday is our annual Pride Prom 2009! This year, the theme is MasQUEERade. So come with a mask! Don't have one, come to QSA this Tuesday to pick one up, throw glitter on it, and look fabulous! Also, don't forget that this Wednesday we're showing Shortbus, directed by the famed director of Hedwig and the Angry Inch, John Cameron Mitchell.


 

We'll see you there!

Hi All:

Last week was the kick off of Pride Month (yes, during March). For those who didn’t make it to the Salt Lines Poetry reading, you missed a lot. For those who missed the Helen Zia event, you missed more. And for those who didn’t come to the free concert featuring The Shondes, you missed much more.

Lucky for you, you can make it all up this week as we begin our film series. First off, on Wednesday, we are showing the documentary The Times of Harvey Milk. Friday, along with AASU, we’re showing Nina’s Heavenly Delights. And on Saturday, we bring you To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar featuring our very own spectacular drag contest—will you be our winner?

Come, dress up, and find out!

is on April 11th, 2009 from 6:15pm-9:00pm in the Hoff Theatre!


Sorry, not the 14th!  Please come out on the Eleventh! See the trailer here

Tonight: Just a reminder that tonight Project Humyn and Pride Alliance presents: Understanding Homophobia, a lecture with Mike Ryan. Mike Ryan, if you know him or not, was the president for the Pride Alliance a couple of years back. Now, he's a graduate student in the sociology department who specializes in social theory.

Join him tonight as he discusses homophobia and what it means for the same-sex marriage debate in the US .

When: TONIGHT (3/31/2009)
Time: 6:00pm-7:30pm
Where: KEY 0103
Cost: FREE

We hope to see you there!

Tonight we proudly present to you Salt Lines, 8pm in the Dorchester Lounge! Come celebrate a night of art, excitement, and pride through spoken-word! Hope to see you there! Check out more information here!

March 23rd, 2009

Welcome back everybody! I hope spring break was eventful and relaxing, because the 9 weeks will be the hardest week of your life, or at least that’s what they want you to believe with papers, tests, presentations, the big final.

Luckily, you have us. And luckily, we have Pride Month, filled with fun and free events across all April. So much that we had to take up some room in March and merging it together with April we have successfully “queered” the month. So yay us!

Our first event will be the Salt Lines Spoken Word Tour, next Monday. But don’t forget that this Wednesday the American Indian Student Union will be presenting “Me Funny, Me Sexy” with Drew Hayden Taylor, which should be a thought provoking and hilarious look at the intersection of race and sexuality.

We hope to see everyone there and we hope everyone is geared for Pride Month.

Director of Communication, Pride Alliance

March 12th, 2009

Update: TCOM has been cancelled tonight.

Secondly, mark your calendars, March 31st starts our Pride Month (well, April, a day short), Salt Lines, a distinctly different type of poetry reading. We'll have more info. up soon, for now, you just need to be there!

A third note, Safespace’s new room in Jimenez 2123. See you this Wednesday at Safespace!

March 6th, 2009

Hi everyone, just wanted to let you know of the new Safespace location: Now in Jiménez 2123!

Also, we have a new layout! We're updating the website with new information, if you're able to help contribute event photographs, or have any comments, please let us know!

March 1st, 2009 - A Message from Eric:

Happy March everybody! Hope everyone is enjoying the snow. Personally, I can’t wait until winter is over, but that’s just me. Plus, spring time means Pride time. Again, Pride Month is just a month away, and we have plenty of events coming your way. Outside, the Pride Alliance, there are many events going on this week. Including Palestine Solidarity Week and a continuation of the LGBT Department’s Spring Lecture featuring Jill Dolan’s “From Flannel to Fleece: Women’s Music, Lesbian Feminism, and Me.”

Also, if you want to get involved in setting up the LGBTQ/Sexuality/Gender Room for Tunnel of Oppression 2009, please contact C.J. Rock at trans_u.pride [at] umd.edu

A Message from Chris for QSA:
I decided that since everyone will probably be studying and finishing last minute work, the meeting tonight will be canceled. However, when it comes to next semester, we will definitely be having a welcome-back party. So, good luck on your exams and have a great winter break!

See you in the Spring!

November 23rd, 2008

Hello all! Thanks to everyone who came to our events last week! Happy Upcoming Turkey Day! And now a message from our Dir. of Comm, Eric:

Hope everyone had fun last week. We had events planned from Monday all the way through Saturday and luckily this week we get some rest. The rest of the semester should be relatively quiet, as we at the Pride Alliance Executive Board are trying to help you study for those exams, by not having another social within the three or so weeks left of the sememster. But that doesn't mean you should skip the small group meetings. In fact, it just gives you more excuse to come and say "Hi."

As for this week, BAM, SafeSpace, and TCOM are cancelled, but W2W and QSA should be running at usual times. Of course, you can also email your facilitators and ask to be sure, and while you're at it, thank them for all the work they've done this semester. It is Thanksgiving.

Eric Nguyen
Director of Communication, Pride Alliance
