On April 16, the club has organized a dance party entitled "Just Dance". This party is all about Lady Gaga, and they will be hosting a Lady Gaga best-dressed contest.

All participants are expected to dress in their best Lady Gaga get up and will be entered to win prizes.

On April 17, the infamous Drag Show is back. The members of GLASS have spiced this event up by bringing in 2 Drag Kings and 3 Drag Queens.

The show allows Muskingum students to enter their own Drag Show contest where a group of judges will determine a Drag King and Drag Queen.

Other events GLASS is planning on holding will be another tye-dyeing event, a panel of speakers to discuss "coming out" and a philanthropy project, "Coins for a Cause".

Coins for a Cause will raise money for the AMFAR organization that sponsors research for AIDS.

The club also hopes to engage the education department in a "Safe Zone Training" session. This training will help specifically teachers, and anyone else interested in coming, with the skills to talk to children about their issues on "coming out" and dealing with their homosexual feelings.

This training is headed by Zane State, but other schools like Ohio University of Zanesville and Akron, and Capital University are involved as well.

"This is really a great way for anyone to learn how to help students who might be dealing with mixed emotions on homosexuality, and learning that it's ok to be who you are," said sophomore Rachel Hentz.

Senate's curriculum committee also discussed a few issues.
