The year 2020 is the 35th anniversary of the Gay Student Services vs. Texas A&M University case. As the court case played out in the '80s, it was a difficult period for LGBTQIA+ students on A&M's campus and for students across all U.S. college campuses. We were denied recognition and support. It wasn't easy off campus either. There was much discrimination in jobs, healthcare, police protection and housing. Then AIDS surfaced, forcing gays back into the closet. In today's polarized political climate, it feels like the '80s all over again and hard-won freedoms are under increased attacks. Now is not a time to rest on our victories. We need to learn from our history and inspire today's equality fight. In this book, I recall my time as a GSS chairperson and life as an out gay man on the Texas A&M campus. I also share my experiences of '80s life discussing activism, volunteering, AIDS, dating and just everyday surviving.
