The ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø LGBT Center is dedicated to serving everyone in the campus community and is expanding programming, specifically for groups like faculty and staff. On this page, there are resources and important dates for events and meetings! On here, you will find information about Parent Space, Faculty & Staff Mixers, and LGBTQ+ Faculty & Staff Space.
This Space
This is a safe space for faculty and staff, who identify as LGBTQ+ to come together, vent, and learn about helpful resources as well as a space for intellectual/analytical discussions. This space is meant to be supportive and not a substitute for necessary/proper resources that one may need. there is also a level of confidentiality that will be maintained with this space. What is shared here stays here.
Our Vision and Mission:
LGBTQ+ Faculty & Staff Space seeks to promote the personal and professional growth for all LGBTQ+ identified and questioning faculty and staff at ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø, through our meetings, social events, sharing of resources, and workplace advocacy. We are dedicated to advancing research, education and public service that affirm the dignity and worth of every member of our community. We hope those who are not out or those exploring their queer identity can call this space home. Together, we are building a culture of respect, integrity, and equality where diversity is celebrated as a strength.
The Space is currently being restructured and will pick back up in the Fall of 2025! Stay tuned!
