YSUnity

of LGBT+ can accidentally exclude orientations or identities, we have decided to move forward as a group. We did not want a long abundance of lettering; however, we still wanted to be inclusive to ALL. So we have decided to open up the new chapter of SOGIE. SOGIE stands for Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity and Expression. With this new chapter upon us, we truly feel that we stand by our original motto of, “where everyone can be themselves.”
With these 5 letters, we aim to showcase that literally everyone and anyone can come to our group and be accepted. We are YSUnity: SOGIE Society, and here is a list of a few things we do at Youngstown State University:
drag shows, picnics, HIV awareness and testing, Bisexual Awareness, Pansexual Awareness, Asexual Awareness, Intersex Visibility, Transgender Day of Rememberance, Day of Silence, bake sales, Safe Sex Awareness campaigns, Suicide Awareness Walks, panels and discussions, marriage rallies, Toys for Tots Drives, National Coming Out Day (often turning this day into a weeklong celebration), and so much more!
