No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups.

For the past four years, Georgia Tech has celebrated its lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, asexual, and ally graduates with Lavender Graduation. This year, 16 graduating students were honored at the Lavender Graduation ceremony, which was hosted by the LGBTQIA Resource Center.
During the ceremony, Student Life Vice President and Dean of Students John Stein welcomed attendees, and Institute Diversity Vice President Archie Ervin invited each graduate on stage to receive a lavender diploma from the LGBTQIA Resource Center, a gift from the Georgia Tech Pride Alumni, and a letter from Stein.
