                       Announcing a new student group
                         at Oregon State University:

                      The Evangelical Perv Association

      A group dedicated to developing, supporting, and promoting the
     on-campus and local BDSM community, and perverts of all stripes.

                               First Meeting:

                              Tuesday, May 7th
                    11:00am to 1:00pm at J.C.'s Pizzaria

                                  Officers:

                          Dianne Hackborn, Top Perv
                            <hackbod@cs.orst.edu>

                         Tauni Arntsen, Bottom Perv
                          <arntsent@ucs.orst.edu>

                              Faculty Advisor:

                                  Pat Kight
                             <kightp@peak.org>

The Evangelical Perv Association was created to give a voice to the local
Corvallis BDSM community.  We are an out-growth of the existing Corvallis
BDSM Munch, and include both student and community members.  Our regular
meetings occur every week, in conjunction with the munch.

Our constitution specifies that this group will work with other existing
student and Corvallis groups, such as the Lesbian Gay and Bisexual Alliance,
to create social and educational events specifically targetted at the BDSM
community.  As with the rest of the BDSM scene, we emphasize consentuality
and safety: the group is dedicated to making information available to those
interested in the scene, to help them safely practice these activities and
understand the issues of consentuality and communication which are central
to what we do.

Some of the activities we have developed with the Lesbian Gay And Bisexual
Alliance for this year's Queer Pride Week at Oregon State University
include:
