There's no Place Like Home...Or Is there? Going Home for Break and feeling stressed out? Join Women Loving Women from 6:00-8:00pm in The Center for LGBT Life 2 West Union Building and have some fun helping each other figure out what to do when: You are ready to leave after the first two days but your ticket is for weeks away...your parents ask you for the 1000th time if you are dating anyone...your sister tells your parents some girl keeps calling you...your mother wants to know when you started wearing guy's clothes. This group was established two years ago to support women who have an attraction to other women and includes undergraduate and graduate women. They gather periodically for discussion, to build community, and offer support. Many women who love women on campus feel isolated and as though they are the only one who feels this way (no matter how they identify: Bisexual, lesbian, questioning, queer, trans, no labels please). So, if you are looking to be a part of such a support network please join!
