About the Ten Percent Society
The Ten Percent Society (TPS) was founded in 1983 upon passage of Wisconsin's gay rights legislation. As a University of Wisconsin registered student organization, we provide educational, social and cultural opportunities for students, faculty and staff, guard against university-sponsored discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation, and work toward creating a campus free of homophobia.
TPS holds weekly meetings on Wednesdays at 8 P.M. in the LGBT Campus Center, Memorial Union on the UW-Madison campus. We host five dances per year which are well-known from Minneapolis to Chicago and frequently generate an attendance of over 400 people. In addition, we participate in two annual LGBT awareness series: Coming Out Week in the fall and Out and About Week in the spring. In February 1999, we had the special honor of hosting the 7th Annual Midwest Bisexual Lesbian Gay Transgender College Conference. This three-day convention featured a diverse array of keynote speakers, breakout sessions, and entertainment of interest to LGBT youth and their allies.
