The University of Richmond's Career Development Center received a bronze ranking from Out for Work, an organization that works with college career centers to improve the quality of support for LGBTQ students transitioning from school to the workplace.
I am sure you have seen it all over campus and maybe for a brief second you contemplated what it is about. I mean, "Silence = Death" seems quite contrary to the whole idea of being silent for the day. If anything, it should be the Day of Loud and Lively Discussion, right? Confronted by this seemingly ill-conceived slogan or campaign name, maybe you were able to piece together that SASD is sponsoring the event and therefore must have something to do with LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bi and Trans) rights. If you have, your deductive skills have served you well, but the whole message is still unclear. Why are they being silent and why does Silence = Death? To understand this, you need to see life through the eyes of an LGBT individual, out or closeted, but especially the latter.
Upon reading the Family Foundation's blog post about their president, Victoria Cobb, receiving the Jepson School of Leadership Studies' 10th Reunion Recognition Award and the resulting student protest, my first instinct was to laugh. It amused me that the Family Foundation — such a supposedly influential, powerful organization — would be so threatened by a group of undergraduate protesters that they chose to insult us rather than to focus on their esteemed leader in their article. That they were unable to correctly spell the word "hypocrisy" was merely icing on the cake.
