Outright Vermont Comes Out with
Style

Every year at the beginning of October the
leaves start to change color. the air turns
cooler and queer organizations dust off
their pride flags from June and hang them
"out” for National Coming Out Week. V\fith
events already geared toward celebrating
Queer history month, the staff at Outright
Vermont decided upon the nifty slogan “you

should get out more.” It was agreed that
this catchy phrase and a flashy ad cam-

Womyn’s Group, a monthly occur-

forged a path before them. Tuesday fea-
tured a screening of The Laramie Project in
honor of the anniversary of Matthew
Shepard's death on October 12. The film is
based on a series of monologues collected
from townspeople in Laramie, Wyoming, in
the aftermath’ of Shepard's death. The
viewing of the film created a very somber
mood among youth, informing them about
the details surrounding those who were
involved with the tragic event.

Hearts and minds got a cheerful
pick-me-up on Wednesday with the Ice
Scream social at Drop In. The youth came
in from the cold evening and indulged in
the frozen delights of Ben and Jerry's and
some good company. The cine-madness
continued on Thursday with the sidesplit-
