Statement from the Gender and Sexuality Alliance at the College of Southern Nevada
We stand with transgender and gender non-conforming people in fighting hate and erasure in our schools, universities, and society. We will continue to work with transgender and gender non-conforming students, athletes, and colleagues in ensuring that they feel welcome and supported at the College of Southern Nevada. This includes providing safer physical facilities and affirming learning environments. This also involves personal reflection and active allyship from our cisgender colleagues and community members.
In honor of Transgender Day of Visibility and Women’s History Month, and in response to the recent disparaging and transphobic comments by NSHE Regent Patrick Boylan, join us for a day of celebration of love and trans-joy. We will Rally for Transgender Visibility on Wednesday, March 27.
Where:
- CSN North Las Vegas Campus, Main Building’s Main Entrance. (Noon)
- CSN West Charleston Campus, Student Union Courtyard. (3 p.m.)
