Greetings! Everyone is welcome. We pride ourselves on a family-like environment with academic and social opportunities. We recognize the spectrum and fluidity of sexual orientation and gender identity and expression. The fun and amazing staff provides resources and services to the wider campus community of students, faculty, staff, and local residents. Our welcome recognizes the whole person, and the intersection of all social identities, inclusive of, but not limited to socio-economic status, emotional and physical abilities, race and ethnicity, religion and spirituality, size, national origin, age and others. Our educational and social programs include weekly discussion groups, Queer Studies courses, an LGBTQ alternative spring break trip, Friday night Coffeehouse, the Out to Lunch lecture series, the Pink Tongue student newsletter, CommunitE weekly e-newsletter, a number of unique programs, the annual t-shirt awareness campaign, and a library with over 2,000 books and videos.
