College Lambda Network News
Hello Everyone,
This email contains a plethora of information so bear
with me. First Johns Hopkins Gertrude Stein Society and
College Lambda Network are planning on a very informal
event this Friday. Basically a few of us were chatting
and thought it sounded like a good idea. This Friday we
are planning on meeting at the Charles Theater at 6:30
in the lobby to see Trembling before God. I think the
movie starts at 7:00. I think that the admission is $5
with a student ID. I hope everyone can make it.
Next, this semester's events: In February we are planning
on a night at the Charles Theater. Basically it will be
a short social gathering with food and then the movie.
More details to come later. The second event we are planning
is to have another Homo-Hop. The first was such a success
and there were many requests to do it again, so we are.
It will probably be in late April or early May. More details
to come.
Next, scholarships available through the GLCCB. The GLCCB
gives out two scholarships each year of $500. I think
it is for students 24 and under. If you are interested
please contact the GLCCB for information.
Next, Delta Lambda Phi is currently rushing for new members.
I have attached all the information for anyone that might
be interested.
Next, I need a representative from each school/group.
I will still be contacting everyone by email and everyone
is still invited to the meetings but it would be a lot
easier if I had contacts. Basically this person would
be a part of a committee that helps to organize events.
Please email me the name, school, email and phone number
of each representative.
Next, at our meeting on Monday, January 28 there were
twelve people present representing UMB, JHU Med, GLCCB,
JHU Undergrad, UMB Law, Loyola, Delta Lambda Phi and CCBC
Catonsville. Many things were discussed at the meeting
and I will share a few highlights. Aimee from the GLCCB
Community Outreach discussed their role in the College
Lambda Network. Basically their major role is to keep
the College Lambda Network alive. In the past other organizations
have tried to have groups similar to the College Lambda
Network but most have failed because people graduate and
move on.
We also discussed the leadership style we would like to
have for the College Lambda Network. The majority thought
that a committee (one rep from each school) with a leader
(me) would be a good idea. I will take on that responsibility
for the remainder of the year and we will vote next fall
for someone else.
We decided that one meeting at the beginning of the semester
was enough and that time we can plan two or three events
to occur during the semester.
If any groups need information spread to all of the College
Lambda Network please send it to me and I will send it
out. My email address is kelbrown@earthlink.net.
At the meeting we also had a representative from the Delta
Lambda Phi fraternity. Like I said earlier there is an
attachment that goes into more detail about the frat.
The contact person is Don Pontier, dpontier@dlp.org.
Okay I think I have weighed you down with enough information
and I'm sure I probably forgot something. Feel free to
contact me if you have any questions. I hope everyone
can make it to the movies this Friday.
Kelli Brown
