This December 12, 1985 article in the Western Carolinian titled "Board of trustees meets: Ramsey Center, AIDS, among topics" includes a report to the board of trustees from Glenn Stillion, vice-chancellor for student development, letting them know that Lavender Bridges has petitioned for university recognition. Lavender Bridges, an anonymously founded student organization open to all individuals, aimed to promote awareness of lesbian and gay lifestyle, provide lesbian and gay resources, and increase communication with all students and community members. The first organizational meeting took place October 10, 1985 and was officially recognized by the office of Student Development on December 13, 1985. The last mention of the group appeared in the October 10, 1991 issue of the Western Carolinian.
