R-Week is a project in which we hold events and create pamphlets on various problems felt around campus, primarily in terms of gender and sexuality, in order to create an environment in which our voices can be heard. The 2nd annual event week will be held during the week of June 2nd (Mon) to June 7th, 2014 (Sat). We have planned a variety of events, from lectures, to workshops, to art exhibits. The main focus of this week will be you, the students. Together, let us make a campus in which everyone can live safely and comfortably.
