MBLGTACC 2008 Bus a Success

This inaugural year the MN Campus Alliance secured two charter buses for GLBTA students, staff and faculty to travel to the Midwest Lesbian Bisexual Gay Transgender Campus Conference, held at the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign. Nearly 80 people from across Minnesota met early Friday morning at Metropolitan State University, and travelled together to and from the conference.

Many thanks to those who joined us on the trip to the conference! We hope to do this again next year on the way to MBLGTACC 2009 at the University of Indiana!

Limited Seating Left for MBLGTACC Bus

Due to unexpected demand for seats on the chartered bus to the Midwest Bisexual Lesbian Gay Transgender Ally College Conference held this year in Champaign-Urbana, Illinois, the MN Campus Alliance has decided to go ahead with ordering a second charter bus to handle all the conference-goers. We were able to get a fair price for the bus, and are offering space for $70.00 per person to you or anyone else from your campus. To reserve a space, please send us the following information:

• Your name
• Your address
• Your phone number
• Your email address
• The name of your institution

Also, please let us know if you require any special accommodations such as wheelchair accessibility. As of this writing, there are only about fifteen spaces left. We would love to have you join us, so please contact info@mncampusalliance.org right away to reserve your seat on the bus.
