“The (Queer Straight Alliance) club actually started in the ‘80s, ‘83 maybe. I think it actually disbanded for a while there and reformed. I started going the first day I could in freshman year and like it’s really important because we do equity work, we’ve trained teachers how to use pronouns, we put on our assembly every year. It’s good to know that you’re keeping it in the mindset of people who don’t really need to think about LGBTQ issues. It’s also really great for the community aspect — sometimes it’s hard to find each other and you know when we get together it’s a really great kind of like sense of belonging.”
– Sarah Meilinger, senior; president of the Queer Straight Alliance
