Queer Students Alliance exists to foster leadership within lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer communities at the university. In addition to advocating for LGBTQ students and hosting community-wide events, the Alliance acts as an umbrella group for all LGBTQ organizations at the university. As such, our Queer Texas Conference is an event to help people in and outside of the University of Texas to discuss, embrace, and learn about various issues regarding LGBTQ identities. The conference this year is November 21, and throughout the day there will be great interactive and informational workshops given by advocacy groups and individuals from all over Texas! In light of the recent Supreme Court decision regarding marriage equality, our theme for the conference this year is Completing the Ring – Marriage Equality and Our Future Activism. We are hoping to make workshops available that address the need for activism beyond marriage equality that can support a myriad of identities and intersections. To make this event a success, we are still looking for groups and individuals to give workshops. If you or someone you know has a topic they would like to present on, please have them fill out the attached workshop proposal form. We will contact you if your workshop is approved!

To ask further questions or get in contact about this event, feel free to contact Queer Students Alliance at texasqsa@gmail.com. Again, thank you so much for your time in reading this message and we look forward to hearing from you!
