The Center offers several different programs that students can participate in to find community, discover resources and develop leadership skills.

  • Our First Buffs Program supports first-generation students in building strong academic and social foundations throughout their years at CU.
  • The Peer Education Program is a paid position that allows students who are passionate about social justice to serve as a leader in educating their fellow students on various topics.

Recurring groups

Bring Your Own Gender (BYOG)

If you identify as trans, non-binary, genderqueer or anywhere along the spectrum of gender, you might be interested in attending this group. BYOG is a bi-weekly group that invites students to be the gender they are, regardless of where they are on their journey, and provides them with the opportunity to meet with other like-minded individuals and allies. These get-togethers offer a judgement-free space where participants can relax and simply be themselves free from gendered expectations.

Wednesdays, 7-8pm, C4C S336E (Trans & Queer room)
