  • Princeton University Women's Rugby Football Club
    Princeton University Women’s Rugby Football Club Dear Parents and Alumni/ae: I’ve written reports to alumni and parents for more than 10 years now. I was helped last year by Allie Eakes as Match Reporter, and I am pleased to be able to reduce my documentation contribution even more this year as Gabe Armstrong-Scott ’18 has taken over this documentation role and brought report formatting into the 21st century. I will continue to write introductions to these reports. Although this season began with two losses, we remain optimistic. We have a powerful forward pack and a particularly young set of backs that get better with each game. Our losses were to two varsity programs- Harvard and Dartmouth – which increases the difficulty of defeating them (pre-varsity, they were really good!) This hasn’t led us into desperation, however. Despite the varsity label, these teams are not unbeatable. In fact, we led Harvard 10-5 with 5 minutes left before a difficult loss. The Dartmouth game was also closer than the 23-5 score. Both these games were away, on trips with bus rides from hell that got us there later than we would have liked. The team is strong and together, our facilities continue to improve, and we look forward to the rest of the season at home … Come support us! Next game: Cornell at Princeton, this Saturday 10/17 at 11 AM at Princeton’s West Windsor Fields Emil Signes / [email protected] Coaching Consultant and Director of Recruiting, Princeton Rugby P.S. You will see a new title above, “Director of Recruiting” (for both men and women’s teams); in this role I will be contacting representatives of high school rugby programs throughout the US and internationally as well.

  • GLBT Latinos and Latinas
    Page 1 of 49 An Annotated Bibliography of Books, DVDs, and Internet Resources on GLBT Latinos and Latinas Compiled by Walt “Cat” Walker. Approved by the GLBTRT Resources Committee. Last revised 6 February 2015. TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction 2 I. General Nonfiction 3 II. Memoirs 15 III. Literary Anthologies 18 IV. Fiction 20 V. Poetry 28 VI. Drama 32 VII. Graphic Novels 33 VIII. Children & Teens 35 IX. DVDs/CD-ROM 37 X. Internet Resources 39 Index 48 Page 2 of 49 Introduction Latino communities have long been parts of our society and culture, but many people, including in the mainstream media, have only recently noticed that 1/6 of the U.S. population is of Latino or Hispanic heritage. The United States is the second-largest Spanish-speaking country in the world, trailing only Mexico. This underrepresented demographic group is starting to receive more recognition in U.S. culture, including in its literature. Gay men, lesbians, bisexuals, and transgender persons make up another minority group that is increasingly visible in our culture. The subject of this bibliography is the intersection of these two minority groups, GLBT Latino/as. This bibliography includes resources about gay men, lesbians, bisexuals, and transgender persons that have immigrated to the United States from Latin America, are Americans descended from Latin American immigrants, or are Puerto Rican (a Latin American U.S. territory). It includes a wide range of books, DVDs and a CD-ROM, and many Internet resources related to GLBT Latino/as. The books have all been published in print, although most of them may also be found as e-books.
