Dear Septian, Each June marks the celebration of Pride for the LGBTQIA+ community. No matter what barriers the LGBTQIA+ community faces they remain resilient. Resilient to stand for what is right, to weather hardships, and to never give up. Although the struggles may be different, our students also know the value of resiliency. WGU students are making the choice to advance their education while supporting partners, raising families, and working. Night after night spent studying has earned WGU students the nickname "Night Owls". Night Owls succeed because they are resilient. Focused and unwavering in their pursuit. Earning their degrees while balancing multiple priorities isn't easy, but changing their lives for the better makes every late night worth it. As we celebrate Pride Month, we encourage everyone, no matter how you identify, to take a moment to acknowledge and respect our differences, but more importantly, to appreciate our similarities. It is our drive to achieve more and create a better life and world for ourselves and others that unites us all. Share your Pride stories with us on our social media by using #StillWe and connect with other WGU Night Owls. |
