				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: small">Tuesday May 28 2013, Rock Climbing Gym at Queechee.<br />
The DGOC is planning a rock climbing outing to the indoor rock climbing gym at Queechee on Tuesday May 28 (<a href="https://by2prd0310.outlook.com/owa/redir.aspx?C=mtFPHTYhBkyO423jiwhyHjtKo5ULLdAItTjHxddpgJwHVQmtVj-FZAcodHfbMSDBRRZVq-U7RiU.&amp;URL=http%3a%2f%2fwww.vermontclimbing.com%2fHome.html" target="_blank">http://www.vermontclimbing.com/Home.html</a>). If we are able to have a group of at least 10 members, the rate will drop from 20 dollars per person (for people who need a belay lesson) to 10 dollars. Otherwise the rate will be 20 dollars for people who need a belay lesson, and 10.50 for people who have had a belay lesson recently. The plan is to meet at the vail/remsen circle (medical school bus stop) at 6:00 PM and come back at 9:30 PM (The gym closes at 9, but they could give us a bit more time).</p>
<p>We will be organizing transportation through carpooling.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: small">Thursday May 16th 7:30pm, Rockefeller 002.<br />
“United in Anger: A History of ACT UP” is an inspiring documentary about the HIV/AIDS activist movement. It is unique in that combines archival footage to document how a small group of men and women of all races and classes, came together to save each other’s lives.</span></p>
<p>&#8220;United in Anger&#8221; also explores how ACT UP (Aids Coalition to Unleash Power) remains a model and touchstone for activists working across a host of issues, from cancer and disease research to patient advocacy.</p>
<p>Ron Goldberg is a writer and activist. As a member of ACT UP from 1987 &#8211; 1994, Ron was a lead organizer for many of the group’s major demonstrations and participated in countless zaps and actions. Ron chaired numerous committees, facilitated the weekly Monday night meetings, wrote fact sheets and fundraising appeals. Since leaving ACT UP in 1994, Ron has helped organize a number of Marriage Equality and anti-Prop 8 demonstrations in New York City and participated  in anti Iraq-war and Occupy Wall Street protests</p>
