Looking Back
Over the past year, the Sexual Identity Forum has been covered by everyone from the New York Times to the local 10 o’clock news. However, the Baylor Lariat has consistently, without bias, tracked our progress since last spring. We invite all members to look back with us at the Lariat coverage and see how far we have come. Then, join us as we look to the future, and all of its possibilities....

The Importance of Being SIF
“I’m not different for the sake of being different, only for the desperate sake of being myself. I can’t join your gang: you’d think I was a phony and I’d know it.” – Vivian Stanshall Sometimes being “different” is about more than putting on the newest Toms or wearing SING makeup to class. Sometimes being different isn’t a choice, and your differences push...

G-O-P and G-A-Y
What is conservatism and how does it relate to the LGBTQ community? Are the two even mixable, or forever mutually exclusive? I believe that one can hold conservative values- smaller government, expansion of enterprise and respect for the family unit- without being “anti-gay” or a “gay-hater”. How, you ask? Because a gay man can be a business owner and pro-tax cuts for entrepreneurs, like...

More Than Just Cookies
So last night, September 1, 2011, we of the Sexual Identity Forum had our first meeting of the semester… and it was AWESOME. Seriously, I think this meeting was the most successful yet. We had roughly 50 people, free cookies for all who came, a fantastic speaker (Mark Osler), great small group discussions, and we were on the channel 10 news! Sure, we advertised the meeting with ‘free...

Changing Tides
Naturally, when you start college you get a little excited. Maybe excited is an understatement. Many new students get swept up in a wave of frenzied, slightly nauseating elation that comes along with a new environment, a new goal, and essentially a new beginning. But for some, this exhilarating time is tarnished. As Mark Osler wrote in Gay at Baylor: a Christian College, published in the Huffington...
Read MoreTHANK YOU!
To everyone who has been a part of SIF, thank you! I truly appreciate the support and encouragement I have been personally receiving from everyone. It has been amazing to see how SIF grew from an angry rant of mine to a group that hosts upwards of 60 people each week to talk about sexuality issues. I am thrilled that there are Baylor students who care about having a safe environment to talk about these...

LGBT in the Media for Better or Worse
Lets face it, not everyone in America has known a gay person for their whole life. This is fact. I am by no means an exception to this- I myself actually did not have gay friends till I came to Baylor- crazy, right? So, inevitably, those of us who have not had constant contact with the LGBT community turn toward a source available to all of us… THE MEDIA! For better or for worse, this is what...
