Interview with Jaxin Bohn, recipient of a 2023 Summer Research Scholarship, talks about his research project “Please Say Gay and Why it’s Important.” The goal of Bohn’s community project is advocacy for LGBTQ+ youths’ rights to be heard and supported in schools. Bhon plans to survey the LGBTQ+ youth and their teachers in Wayne County high schools; he seeks to examine the correlations between how the students feel and how much support they are given by faculty and the school system.
Bohn, a member of the LGBTQ+ club at IU East, explained the significance of on-campus support for LGBTQ+ students. “The frustration I have felt in these last six months from the anti-LGBTQ+ laws, bills and general discrimination against us, is indescribable,” Bohn wrote in his proposal. “Campus might be the only place where some students feel safe in the midst of all the hate being thrown our way; I want to be part of making that happen by spending more time on campus.”

On the weekend of May 1st and 2nd, IUE faculty and guest artists gathered in
Vivian Auditorium to rehearse and record Nathan Froebe’s new song cycle, “In Paths
Untrodden,” set for two un-gendered voices and Pierrot ensemble (flute, clarinet, violin,
cello, piano). This cycle consists of ten poems by Walt Whitman, set to music by Dr.
Froebe (composer, conductor), and depicts the navigation of an LGBTQ+ relationship in the messy aftermath of romantic separation. The work itself constituted the entirety of the music performance,
as the cycle is approximately thirty-five minutes in length.
Due to the pandemic, there was no audience. The performance premiered on Facebook Live.
Interview of Nathan Froebe, visiting professor of music, about his song cycle "In Paths Untrodden," queer-reading of select Walt Whitman’s poems. He also talks about his experience as a member of the LGBTQ+ community. Professor Froebe has also donated the musical documents, program, and recording of the performance of this work.
Array is a series of miniatures based on the Progress Pride Flag. Created in 1978 by
artist Gilbert Baker at the behest of Harvey Milk, the Pride Flag has been an enduring and
evolving symbol for the LGBTQ+ community. Baker created various meanings for each
color of the flag as well, explaining that “I like to think of those elements as in every
person, everyone shares that.” The flag originally had the colors of hot pink and turquoise,
but due to manufacturing issues they were quickly dropped. In 2017, the city of
Philadelphia added the brown and black stripes to stand in solidarity with members of the
BIPOC community. Then, in 2018, non-binary artist Daniel Quasar redesigned it again to
the current (2022) iteration, with a chevron on the left side of the
flag pointing forward, representing the progress that has been made. The chevron consists of the white/light blue/ light pink of the trans/non-binary flag, as well as the black and brown stripes. Conflicting
accounts arise of their descriptions of the black and white colors, and which one
represented the lives lost to the HIV/AIDS epidemic, thus the executive decision was made
during the composing process to have white represent it. Each miniature is not meant to be
an interpretation of the literal color, but instead a personal and artistic rendering of the
concept as experienced by the composer.
