The fourth block Teen PEP class of junior students gathered for a group photo before presenting their workshop on homophobia to freshman gym classes in the New Gym. The Teen PEP students split the freshmen into smaller groups for an interactive workshop, where a bond formed between a freshman and junior as they laughed together. A small group of freshmen and their Teen PEP mentors discussed homophobia and homosexuality in a circle, with the discussion becoming heated as they engaged in an activity on the topic.
