10 Year Anniversary
Celebrating 10 years of impact, belonging, and advocacy with the Pride Center.

For ten years, the Pride Center has been a place where students have found community, built meaningful connections, and a sense of belonging. Together, we have celebrated identities, supported one another through challenges, and cultivated a vibrant and inclusive community where everyone can thrive.
A Decade of Becoming, honors the foundation that has sustained us over the past decade while looking ahead to the future that we continue to build together. It is a theme that recognizes that becoming is never finished. It is lived in layers from humble beginnings, in the bold acts of visibility, and in the community we continue to shape. Our theme is both, a reflection and a promise that growth is ongoing; that belonging is continually created, and that the next decade will hold even more possibility than the last.
