Gay, Lesbian, Bi-sexual and transgender students often feel left out from their broader community. But yesterday they were given a chance to meet, greet and eat barbeque.
This was the second year for the Big Gay Picnic organized by Annie Russell, a graduate student for the University's LGBT Programs and Services.
"Last year we had 125 people, which was amazing," Russell said before the picnic began. "I'm hoping we hit that mark and more."
