LGBT Peer Education Program


About the Program

 

Peer Education TrainingThe LGBT Peer Education program is sponsored by the Office of the Dean of Undergraduate Students as part of the Residential Education Program. The program includes a panel of students who share personal narratives and offer brief information about campus resources. The panels conclude with a brief question and answer session. Panels occur in campus residence halls, classrooms, and community groups. Representing a diverse range of backgrounds and experiences, these lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and allied (supporting) students can be reached at any time to talk about any issues relating to sexuality and gender identity.

Become an LGBT Peer Educator

 

Thank you for your interest in the LGBT Peer Education Program. LGBT Peer Educators are supportive and accessible for students with questions or concerns about LGBT issues. As part of their outreach efforts, LGBT Peer Educators also attempt to sensitize the larger University community to issues of homophobia, heterosexism, and stereotyping of LGBT people. Peer educators are expected to:

  • Attend a two-day training session early in the fall semester
  • Are knowledgeable about common concerns of LGBT students and are able to make referrals to appropriate resources
  • Are sensitive and willing to listen to the concerns of students dealing with LGBT issues, including those who are straight or questioning their sexuality
  • Lead a minimum of FIVE presentations and discussion sessions for freshman RA groups, eating clubs, community youth groups, and other groups as requested
  • Maintain confidentiality in dealing with students who have questions or concerns
  • Are listed in the campus directory in the advisory organizations section and on this website, and are willing to be contacted by and provide support for those with questions or concerns

The LGBT Center is currently recruiting Peer Educators for the 2008-2009 academic year.
