We are So Proud

Each June, we present our Lambda Awards at our annual Lambda Celebration. For more than twelve years it has been our chance to pay tribute to the individuals and organizations that have made outstanding contributions to our LGBT community.

The event also salutes graduating students, our leadership scholarship recipients and those graduating with a minor in Queer Studies. Other folx are also specially acknowledged by students for their support with our You Got Me Through It Awards.

The evening includes a guest speaker keynote, UCR student performances and a delicious catered meal. Graduates don rainbow tassels as a commemorative touch to this celebratory night.

The Lambda Celebration cannot take place in person in 2020 due to COVID-19. However, we are still honoring our graduating students, Lambda Awards recipients, and LGBTQIA Stident Leadership Scholar. Read more below.
