What is the Speaker's Bureau? The Speaker's Bureau is a PRIDE provided service in which a panel of GLBTQA students talk to classes about their experiences of coming out and then open the floor to a Q&A discussion. This dialogue is often very enlightening for all individuals involved. It is an opportunity for students to discuss certain taboo issues and ask questions that otherwise would be left unsaid in a safe atmosphere.
