Supportive Environment: This event is primarily about fun, but if you ever need advice, guidance, or simply someone to listen, we invite open and supportive dialogue. Good-Natured Conversations: We encourage healthy, respectful discussions, but ask that disagreements be handled with tact and understanding. No Tolerance for Discrimination or Harassment: This is a space for everyone. Any behavior that goes against these values will not be tolerated.
