Today is the Day of Silence. Started in the 90s by two college students, the Day of Silence began as a day to recognize the harassment and discrimination of LGBTQ students. This day has grown to be a nationally recognized student-led protest for the rights of the LGBTQ community, especially students. More than 800 anti-LGBTQ bills were introduced last year, making the Day of Silence more important than ever. Join GSA and the worldwide LGBTQ community in remaining silent today to show your solidarity.
