Sexual assault survivors came together to quilt their stories on Monday evening at Wild Iris Books, a feminist bookstore at 22 SE Fifth Ave. The evening was the last of three monthly workshops at Wild Iris, where participants created squares for The Monument Quilt, a project that collects stories from rape and abuse survivors on red fabric squares and displays them in public spaces around the U.S

Active Streets Gainesville

We've got spirit, how 'bout you?

Flags, book pages and hair flapped in the breeze Thursday on the Plaza of the Americas during Pride History Week’s LGBTQ+ Spirit Day, the penultimate event before the colorful week concludes. A plethora of tables were propped up on the walkway toward Library West, including feminist bookstore Wild Iris Books and a petition-signing table for the Florida Competitive Workforce Act. Further along the path, students jumped for pride in an inflatable castle, aptly colored like the rainbow. One such student, Noble Nolen, a 20-year-old UF economics junior, said, "I just enjoy bouncing," as she came out of the bounce house. Pride Student Union hosted Pride History Week: The Age of Hollywood this week to educate people about the queer community and change the way LGBTQ+ relations are perceived. The week will conclude with the "Powder, Pearls and Pumps" Drag Ball tonight at 8 p.m. in the Reitz Union Grand Ballroom.

Roped up

On one of the first cool Sundays of the season, UF RecSports hosted Gator Open Climb on the south shore of Lake Wauburg. The 40-foot tall Alpine Tower, featuring a variety of routes to the top, was free for all students with a Gator 1 card to climb from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Normally, groups must sign up in advance to climb the tower. This event, which happens every semester, invites all students to climb the tower without having to register in groups.
