Support Services Director Michelle Rogers said the flag was being raised to “show support for our LGBTI staff, students, colleagues and the wider community.”

Curtin University is celebrating Pride in a number of ways: a rainbow pedestrian crossing, a rainbow light installation to be projected onto the stadium after sundown this evening, and a Pride breakfast with GRAI and other LGBTIQ community groups at 8am on the morning of Friday November 21st.

“Our celebrations here on Bentley campus over today and tomorrow are a small part of our broader involvement in the Perth community’s ten day Pride festival, of which Curtin is a major sponsor.” Rogers said.

Also in attendance were Mr. Ross Weatherby, workplace education and relationship manager from Pride and Diversity visiting from Sydney and Graham Lovelock, co-President of Pride WA.
