Providing diversity and community-building programs for today's richly diverse campuses. In their program, "When the Gays Move Into Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood," Joe and Bil explore the realities and human dimensions of living in a world of heterosexual privilege. Drawing from their own lives, their experiences as fraternity men and student affairs professionals, their family experiences, and the dynamics of their own relationship, Joe and Bil present this difficult topic in a non-threatening, humorous way. "Joe and Bil provided an engaging, humorous and insightful approach to critical issues faced by college students. The challenge of presenting to a group of individuals with a wide range of interests, knowledge, and sensitivity about LGBTQ issues was done with great ease and professionalism and with a style students, faculty and staff appreciated and enjoyed. I highly recommend this program to colleagues." Jan Walbert "...many of the things Joe and Bil talked about last night really hit home for me. I pledged openly gay and I can say that I am proud of my Brothers and am very thankful for the support and respect they have given me…they have become my Family, and I would not trade them for the world. The workshop was very inspiring and it felt great to hear other gay Fraternity men talk about their experiences. Thank you so much." Fraternity Member and Student "They were absolutely AMAZING - from their presentation style, to their sense of humor, to taking the additional time before and after the program to interact with students and staff. Everything was fabulous"! Straight and Gay Alliance Advisor In their general diversity program, "Dreaming Beyond Technicolor" the pair helps students understand the ultimate goal of diversity and multi-cultural education while giving students (and staff) strategies for embracing others in a diverse campus community. "The Art of Possibility" What makes a good leader? How does a leader inspire individuals to become motivated team members? More importantly, what motivates you as a leader? Combining humor with interactive exercises, Joe and Bil help students explore and better understand their leadership styles. With this understanding, participants will learn how to communicate effectively with others in order to motivate and inspire them to action! Whether you are planning a conference, retreat, workshop, educational keynote, residence life training, staff development seminar, orientation, or Greek program, Joe and Bil bring the right attitude and uplifting message to drive tough topics to heart.

It takes funny, interactive and challenging programs to get today's college students thinking about important "community issues" such as diversity appreciation and homophobia & heterosexism. Yet today's students face an increasingly diverse world where their leadership skills will be put to the test.
