"Don't Yell Fag from the Front Porch" was first held in 2000, after a member of Alpha Delta fraternity reportedly yelled "faggot" from the fraternity's porch at a gay student.

Shirley Hu / The Dartmouth Staff Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Questioning and Allied issues have made headlines in the national papers repeatedly over the past year -- from continued protests over the passage of Proposition 8 in California to the New Hampshire Senate voting to legalize same-sex marriage this past Wednesday. At the College, where The Dartmouth's own headlines have trumpeted news of the third annual PRIDE Week this past week, this week's Mirror asks, 'How has being a part of the LGBTQA community at Dartmouth changed in the past few years, and where is the community headed in the coming years?' "I feel like Dartmouth has definitely changed and become more inclusive of LGBT students, but there is still a long way to go," Ray Rodriguez '09, one of the organizers of PRIDE Week, said. The letter A is sometimes added to the acronym LGBTQ to include "allies," or people who are not LGBTQ, but advocate for the fair treatment of those who are. "In my eyes, there's a huge difference in the LGBT people that have been here for four years, and the '12s that just came in.
