IN A FLASH: Rainbows Shine Bright In Â鶹ӰԺ
Downtown Â鶹ӰԺ is colored with pride, recognizing National Coming Out Day on Oct. 11 and preparing for Â鶹ӰԺ's Rainbow Weekend, Oct. 13-14.

'A Supportive Community Makes It a Lot Easier'
Students coming to Â鶹ӰԺ State and, for some of them, living away from home for the first time can struggle with the transition. The transition can even be more difficult for LGBTQ+ students, particularly for those who have recently "come out." Ken Ditlevson, director of Â鶹ӰԺ State's LGBTQ+ Center, talks about the many resources available at Â鶹ӰԺ to support them.

It's a Rainbow Week at Â鶹ӰԺ State!
Â鶹ӰԺ State and the city of Â鶹ӰԺ encourage people to attend any of the LGBTQ+ events on campus and downtown this week.
