MISPO Celebrates First Annual Ally Week!

MISPO hosted Hofstra’s first Ally Week from March 24-28 and had a great time spreading awareness to  Hofstra’s students and faculty on how to be better allies to people in the LGBTQ community!

It was a week full of events presented by MISPO, the Pride Network, the Center for Civic Engagement, the LGBT Studies Program and Long Island Gay and Lesbian Youth.

We kicked off the week on Monday with an Ice-Cream and Design-Your-Own Spin Art social.With the help of the  Pride Network, we gave out information on the week’s events and explained what it means to be an ally with the help of some passersby!  On Wednesday evening, students engaged in insightful conversation at the Safe Space workshop and the CCE’s Dinner Conversation on LGBT Consumerism.





MISPO and the Pride Network hosted “The Game of Life” and “The Privilege Walk” on Thursday to teach students what it is like to walk in someone else’s shoes. On Thursday and Friday the LGBT Studies Program hosted the Focault 2014 Symposium.We ended the week with an informative Safe Space workshop for faculty and staff

The event was a big success and we can’t wait to do it again next year!
