SOL is a student-fee funded organization that focuses on Queer/Trans People of Color (QTPOC) while putting on events and programming for individuals to embrace their full selves without compromising a piece of themselves in the process. SOL is who you fully are. Looking at all of your identities and acknowledging they all matter at the same time. While we recognize the intersection of all identities we focus particularly on the intersection of race/ethnicity, sexuality and gender. Students find support through educational programming, student advocacy and ally building. 

Men's Development & Engagement (MDE) is an initiative of the Educational Opportunities Program. MDE focuses on engaging Oregon State University's men in discussion of gender, exploring topics of masculinity in our community and developing healthy masculine identities.
