The Gay? Fine By Me T-Shirt Project and Atticus Circle have partnered to bring you Campus Circle, the most comprehensive program bringing LGBT and straight people together to stand up for equal rights on campus!

When the Gay? Fine By Me T-Shirt Project and Atticus Circle met up in Austin, TX, in 2006, we realized that we had similar missions in mobilizing allies to stand up for LGBT equal rights. We knew the t-shirts were a huge success in getting people to self-identify as supporters, but, in line with the goals of Atticus Circle, we wanted to do something with all of these fabulous people after they got a t-shirt. This is why we created Campus Circle!

By joining forces, Campus Circle hopes to make meaningful change on high school and college campuses across the country. As a program, we hope to identify gay and straight supporters across your campus, get them in shirts and then put them into some kind of action! Whether it’s signing a petition, starting a new GSA, or visiting with state legislators, Campus Circle program partners will be able to create huge change with the power in numbers generated through this project.

     

Atticus Circle educates and mobilizes fair-minded straight people to advance equal rights for LGBT parents, partners and their children.

 

 

Fine By Me Inc. is dedicated to giving is dedicated to giving a voice to friends and supporters of LGBT Americans. We do this primarily through the Gay? Fine By Me T-Shirt Project, which distributes tens of thousands of t-shirts each year in communities across the country. The tshirts bear the simple slogan “gay? fine by me” and help to eliminate discrimination and homophobia through the public affirmation of LGBT people.

The toolkit is divided into three pieces that you can download separately or all together: T-Shirts & Activism, Fundraising and Media. By reviewing all three parts you will walk through all of the Campus Circle steps, from creating the vision for your project to carrying it out. Though we’ve tried to make this guide as comprehensive as possible, if you come across questions in your planning process that are not answered here, please don’t hesitate to contact either Atticus Circle or Fine By Me . And most importantly: have fun, stand together, and create change!
