THOMAS WHITE EMAIL TO CEDARVILLE UNIVERSITY REGARDING THE SUPREME COURT DECISION ON SAME-SEX MARRIAGE JUNE 30, 2015 / 105 COMMENTS Below is the email that I sent to the Faculty and Staff at Cedarville University on Saturday, June 27, 2015. I am posting it here so that students, parents, alumni, and friends can join in praying for Cedarville University in the coming days and specifically praying that God would visit our campus in a unique way this fall. I want to see God move like He did during the Great Awakenings and for all of us to come to clearer realization of who we are, who God is and to be more like Jesus. Dear Cedarville Family, Today, I am in Seattle, WA for an alumni meeting. Tomorrow, just blocks from my hotel room rainbow banners mark the route where a gay pride parade will celebrate, as none have in the past, the recent ruling of the Supreme Court. I could not help but reflect upon the rainbow, a symbol of God’s mercy, which has been turned to mean something very different. I am burdened for our nation and for so many people hopelessly looking for fulfillment down the dead end road of a sexual revolution. They will soon discover the emptiness of their journey, and amidst their eventual despair, we must be ready to present a biblical worldview and the hope of the Gospel with more clarity, compassion, and boldness than ever before. Walking beneath the banners, I found myself thinking back to Daniel and what he must have experienced as he remained faithful in a much more secular culture.

LGBTQ History at Rutgers University 1969 Sophomore Lionel Cuffie establishes the Rutgers Student Homophile League on the College Avenue campus in New Brunswick. It was the first openly homosexual organization in New Jersey and one of the oldest organizations on a college campus nationwide. Over time, the league evolved into the Bisexual, Gay, and Lesbian Alliance of Rutgers University (BiGLARU) and is now known as the Queer Student Alliance (QSA) 1970 The League sets up office in the Rutgers Student Center and holds weekly meetings on the College Avenue campus and discussion groups and socials on the Busch and Douglass campuses. 1974 Rutgers holds its first Blue Jeans Day to raise awareness about gay and lesbian issues among the student population. 1976 The School of Law-Newark organizes the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Caucus to represent LGBT interests and raise awareness on campus. The caucus also encourages the study of law affecting the LGBT community. 1981 Rutgers adopts policies prohibiting discrimination based on sexual orientation, amending anti-discrimination policies first adopted in 1974. 1988 President Edward J. Bloustein establishes the President’s Select Committee for Lesbian- Gay Concerns and directs the New Brunswick, Newark, and Camden provosts to identify a student affairs staff member to assume responsibility for lesbian and gay concerns. These liaisons were responsible for protecting the interests of lesbians and gay men, and later bisexual and transgender individuals, at Rutgers. 1989 David Nichols and Morris J. Kafka-Hozschlag publishes “The Rutgers University Lesbian/Gay Alliance, 1969-1989: The First Twenty Five Years,” a special issue of The Journal of the Rutgers University Libraries.

Homophobia and Transphobia Illumination Project Curriculum Andrew S. Forshee, Ph.D., Early Education & Family Studies Portland Community College Portland, Oregon INTRODUCTION Homophobia and transphobia are complicated topics that touch on core identity issues. Most people tend to conflate sexual orientation with gender identity, thus confusing two social distinctions. Understanding the differences between these concepts provides an opportunity to build personal knowledge, enhance skills in allyship, and effect positive social change. GROUND RULES (10­15 minutes) Materials: chart paper, markers, tape. Due to the nature of the topic area, it is essential to develop ground rules for each student to follow. Ask students to offer some rules for participation in the post­performance workshop (i.e., what would help them participate to their fullest). Attempt to obtain a group consensus before adopting them as the official “social contract” of the group. Useful guidelines include the following (Bonner Curriculum, 2009; Hardiman, Jackson, & Griffin, 2007): Respect each viewpoint, opinion, and experience. Use “I” statements – avoid speaking in generalities. The conversations in the class are confidential (do not share information outside of class). Set own boundaries for sharing. Share air time. Listen respectfully. No blaming or scapegoating. Focus on own learning. Reference to PCC Student Rights and Responsibilities: http://www.pcc.edu/about/policy/student­rights/student­rights.pdf DEFINING THE CONCEPTS (see Appendix A for specific exercise) An active “toolkit” of terminology helps support the ongoing dialogue, questioning, and understanding about issues of homophobia and transphobia. Clear definitions also provide a context and platform for discussion. Homophobia: a psychological term originally developed by Weinberg (1973) to define an irrational hatred, anxiety, and or fear of homosexuality.

Accelerating Acceptance 2016 A Harris Poll survey of Americans’ acceptance of LGBT people 1 GLAAD’s“ findings point to a culture of Accelerating complacency, wherein Acceptance 2016 the non-LGBT public is under the false and Introduction potentially dangerous 2015 represented an especially historic year in the movement impression that for LGBT equality, with the Supreme Court’s landmark ruling in Obergefell v. Hodges, which guaranteed same-sex couples the right the work for LGBT to marry nationwide. Notwithstanding the American public has grown well beyond majority status in support for marriage equality equality is done. and we have reached what TIME Magazine called the “transgender tipping point,” GLAAD’s recent survey results, conducted by Harris Poll, reveal that other key, yet perhaps more nuanced attitudes about LGBT people are lagging and the cause of Accelerating “ Acceptance in 2016 and beyond must continue. With the monumental progress achieved for marriage equality also comes a misperception that LGBT people are now fully equal in the eyes of the law. For example, half of non-LGBT Americans (50%) currently believe that “gay people have the same rights as everybody else,” GLAAD’s survey reveals. GLAAD’s findings point to a culture of complacency, wherein the non-LGBT public is under the false and potentially dangerous impression that the work for LGBT equality is done. Yet, GLAAD’s survey also reveals that slow but steady progress is being made for acceptance of LGBT people. In many of the ‘comfortability’ questions central to GLAAD’s Accelerating Acceptance survey, non-LGBT Americans report significantly less discomfort than was reported in 2014.
