Join us for our weekly Shades event from 4 pm to 5:30 pm in the Diversity Center (SLB 22), located on the legacy side of campus, on most Wednesdays for Fall 2025. Shades is a discussion-based event series for all UIS students, faculty, and staff. The goal of this series is to create a safe and affirming space through which we can explore topics of identity and bring together QTPOC (Queer & Trans* People of Color) students and allies on campus. Light snacks and refreshments are provided and all attendees are entered into a prize raffle!

*Open to UIS students, faculty, and staff*
