Log Cabin Meets with Spectrum

Spectrum is DePaul University’s GLBT student group. They invited Log Cabin Illinois to speak to their general membership about Log Cabin Republicans.  They were thinking of exhibiting the “documentary” which aired on Logo, Elephant in the Room.  At the last minute we all decided to not show the video. Many of them had already seen it and they were curious about LCR’s opinion of film. They also inquired about the American Dad Log Cabin episode. They group may have been new to the philosophies of Log Cabin, but at least they had some pop cultural references.

My presentation covered the basics:

What is Log Cabin, What has Log Cabin been involved in, Why am I a Log Cabin Republican?

After the formal part of the presentation, we had a lively Q&A session.  The students had some great questions.  They were very curious about the demographics of the Log Cabin organization, race, gender, even inquiring as to how many trans-gendered individuals we have in our membership.  That begs the question, should we be collecting demographic information from our membership base? What would we do with it?
