The Division of College Communications has been working for the past year to select and implement a new digital asset management (DAM) system for the college. At the end of the spring 2019 semester, we will have transitioned away from our current digital asset management system, Cumulus. All existing and future digital assets will be available only on the new system, Widen. Please note that once Widen is fully introduced in May, Cumulus will no longer be accessible.

The Out of the Closet and Onto the Screen series at Ithaca College will show the documentary “Vito” on Tuesday, April 2, at 6 p.m. in Textor 103. The screening is free and open to the public.

Film student Vito Russo was among the crowd that fought back against the police raid of the Stonewall Inn in 1969. He would go on to become one of the most outspoken and inspiring activists in the LGBT community’s fight for equal rights. His book The Celluloid Closet explored the ways gays and lesbians were portrayed on film. He also traveled to gay film festivals and college campuses with his entertaining and informative lecture/clip show on media representation and homophobia. 

The Out of the Closet and Onto the Screen series is sponsored by the Ithaca College Center for LGBT Education, Outreach, and Services. For more information, visit www.ithaca.edu/lgbt.
