In order to promote universal tolerance and acceptance of people of all races, religions, cultures, genders, ethnicity, exceptionalities and sexual orientations through education, �Building Bridges: An Awareness Symposium� was held Oct. 13 on the Rome campus of Georgia Highlands College.
The event was sponsored by the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Trans sexual, and Straight Alliance and consisted of workshops hosted by sponsors Enlight Atlanta, Georgia Equality, Atlanta Pride Committee, Parents Family and Friends of Lesbians and Gays (PFLAG) and Georgia Highlands College.
�Education is the key to acceptance and understanding and is why just having a dialogue on this topic is so important,� said Dustin Neighbors, president of the Georgia Highlands College chapter of the GLBT&S Alliance, �We are part of history in the making.�
