Colourful Conversations September

The CS department is hosting an event called "Colourful Conversations" where yall can come in and get to play board games and network with professors and just have a good time. The goal is to let professors get to know their LGBTQ+ students better and for LGBTQ+ students to feel more comfortable interacting with their CS professors on a personal level, since LGBTQ+ students statistically don't interact with their professors as much. We created this event with LGBTQ+ in Computer Science and adjacent fields (e.g COGS and CPEN) in mind. But despite that being queer and in CS is not a requirement! Everyone is welcome. We don't have any way to check regardless. Here is the sign up link: https://ubc.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9F6WR1nARnzoWLs For this round of Colorful Conversations we've invited Joanna McGrenere and Karina Mochetti. In the future it might be different professors. Yes there will be FREE pastries and coffee
