Speaker’s Bureau Training
Interested in sharing your story? The LGBTRC’s Speaker’s Bureau is looking for new volunteers who are willing to speak about their personal experiences as LGBT and Ally in order to raise more awareness toward LGBT issues at UCI.
A 2-day training session will be held on Wednesdays, Nov. 7 and 14 from at 5:00 pm - 7:00pm!
The Speakers Bureau is composed of a group of trained speakers who share their personal journeys as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or ally individuals on panel presentations. Audiences are encouraged to ask questions to get an idea of some of the emotions, struggles or accomplishments involved in the LGBT/Ally student or staff member’s life.
Panels are often presented at the conclusions of workshops, which are offered with a number of additional services. Educational workshops are designed and delivered by peer counselors, focusing on a range of LGBT/Ally issues, or on a specific topic that is usually requested. Through lecture, discussion, panel presentations or interactive exercises, workshops are able to open up dialogue within an audience, helping participants to examine and assess their previous knowledge of LGBT issues.
Workshops and panels are geared towards creating a greater understanding of the LGBT community, and are available for academic classes, residence halls, cultural clubs and other campus organizations. If you are interested in arranging a workshop you may stop by the LGBT Resource Center or contact Matt Espino at mespino@uci.edu for any questions or to fill out a workshop request form click here.

Shocktoberfest!

This Friday, October 26 is the second annual Shocktoberfest at the
This year, CHSC is hosting a booth featuring palm reading and selling baked goods (i.e. decorate your own cookie). Since the event is set to run from 7-11, we are looking for volunteers to help at the booth! Any time you can volunteer is appreciated. For all the fearful, the palm-reading is going to be based off a quick “cheat sheet” of major lines in the palm, (i.e. lifeline, etc, and after that its “make-up-as-you-go”). But if you’d rather sell cookies or help out in other ways, please contact Chris Lawrence ASAP. Since this event is a fundraiser for CHSC, your support is very important to its success. Make sure to stop by our booth if you go! See you there!
