Photography Club<br />
The SGU Photography Club strives to provide students of<br />
the SGU community who seek to share their talent and learn<br />
more about the art of photography and/or filmmaking. The<br />
Club will be based on the exchange of talents, knowledge,<br />
and techniques between each student coming from a<br />
different background and expertise. In a way every member<br />
will teach or improve his/her skills in the art of photography.<br />
Also, the members will have the opportunity to put their<br />
skills into action by being the photographer of a club event.<br />
The goal of the club is to introduce photography as a hobby<br />
that is accessible to everyone in the SGU community, be it a<br />
beginner, an amateur, or a professional.<br />
Pride & Equality SGU<br />
Pride & Equality (P&E) SGU exists for the benefit of all<br />
members of the university in the hope of enriching their<br />
experience at SGU. As a result, the organization is open<br />
to anyone and everyone. P&E SGU is committed to the<br />
development of an atmosphere that is both open and<br />
equitable, specifically as that goal pertains to the needs<br />
of those who have been marginalized on the basis of their<br />
sexual and/ or gender orientations, and/or identities.<br />
By working with a wide variety of excellent faculty and<br />
visiting professors, the club is able to offer a number of<br />
educational events and social activities throughout the<br />
term focusing on various aspects of the LGBT community.<br />
