A Day of Silence vigil will begin at 10 a.m. at the Doudna Steps as a part of Eastern’s Pride Month events.

The Day of Silence is a national event through the Gay, Lesbian & Straight Education Network in which participants are silent for a day in support of LGBTQ students who are bullied in school, especially those who have taken their lives due to bullying.

The event will end at 2 p.m. and in case of rain, the meeting location will be the Martin Luther King Jr. University Union Bridge Lounge.
