Between the times of 11:50 AM and 12:10 PM we will be having a Hug-In at the booth area in Lobby 10. We will be distributing flyers on why we are doing this (an attempt to show people that we are constantly bombarded with "heterosexist" images, while we are usually unable to show our own affections in public. We decided on a Hug-In rather than a Kiss-In for a number of reasons, the most important being a desire to NOT further the stereotype and myth of promiscuity. Any and all are asked to be there, the more people the better. Invite your friends to join us and show support. We are not pre-publicizing this event however in order to lessen the chance of any organized violent response. We hope to see you there! Rob Gates for the Exec. Board
