campus LGBTIQ&A organization email listservs

In addition to their websites, social media presence and/or email accounts (see Campus Organizations), a number of DU-related organizations and working groups use email listservs to keep their members informed and connected. These private listservs provide a simple, convenient means of keeping our communities informed and connected; and we’d love to count you among that network.

In considering whether and which listserv(s) to join, please note the following:

• ALL listservs are private. Subscribers list is available only to the few list managers. Your name/email will not be visible to other subscribers unless you post a message to the listserv.
• Subscribers can post directly to their listservs by addressing an email to the list address. (There is no need to ask us to post relevant messages for you, so long as you are subscribed to the list you’re sending to, and sending from that subscribed email address.)
• To protect against spam and other forms of abuse, most listservs are moderated –posts must be approved by list managers before being distributed. Please keep this delay in mind when posting to a list; depending on time of day and day of the week—it might be minutes or hours before a moderator gets to your message.
• To help keep message traffic to a useful minimum, we send a weekly digest of news items to all non-alumn lists each Friday morning. We strongly encourage you to plan ahead and submit it for this digest by Thursday evening rather than sending it individually. You can submit brief announcements (<250 words, NO graphics or attachments, and with a phone/email/website contact for additional information), by emailing lgbtiqa@du.edu.
• Because the audience is slightly different for each list, many messages are sent to multiple/all lists. To help best manage the amount of messages you receive, we urge you to sign up only for those lists that apply to your primary connection to DU.

The current listservs are listed below, with a brief description of the intended audience of each. You can use the respective link to manage your own subscription: join a list (as appropriate), change your address on or unsubscribe from it. (You receive an automated confirmation of most changes.) Once you have successfully subscribed, the email address listed beside the name can be used to send messages to that listserv.

Queer DU Info
queerdu-info@du.edu

Unlike the listservs below, this is not for an organization per se, but rather is an umbrella listserv for all the affinity organizations above, as well as Safezone/Queer & Ally Training participants, other interested Pioneers, alumns and community friends. The weekly E-digest newsletter is sent to this listserv (and the QSA listserv). NOTE: If you are subscribed to one of the listservs below, you do NOT need to join this one; you will receive largely duplicate messages!
