Hi John,

Choosing a college is about more than picking a major. It’s about finding a place where you can be yourself, find your people, and figure out what you want your life to look like. So how do you look beyond the brochure and find your fit?

Join us October 8 at 4pm PT/7pm ET live on Twitch for Queer Spaces un Unexpected Places: College Pride in Action, a conversation for LGBTQ+ young people considering college and parents who want to support their search.

Popular Twitch streamer and educator DataDave will moderate a panel featuring Antioch College admissions counselors and alumni, former Youth Voices ambassador and current Kenyon College student Mia Miller, and It Gets Better’s Senior Manager of Programs and Operations Ariella Assouline.

We’ll explore:

• Finding affirming campuses and what to ask before applying.

• Building community and navigating queer college life.

• Shaping your education through your interests and activism.

• Considering a gap year or a different path after high school.

Bring your questions for the live Q&A!

This stream is presented in partnership with Antioch College, which we named the queerest small rural school in the country this spring.
