LGBT Center

The confidential support and discussion groups are a great way to become involved in the community. For students who are questioning and coming out, they are a safe place to talk with others who may have shared experiences. For all students, they are a wonderful place to make friends and explore identities. The groups are facilitated by University staff members and trained students who are LGBT Peer Educators. The groups listed below are all active this year. Please contact the LGBT Center if you are interested in joining any of these groups.

This group is for students who do not identify as straight and also do not identify as gay or lesbian. If you feel you are straddling the line between both communities or your identity is beyond the binary, this is a discussion group where you can speak with other students about identity, orientation, relationships, and finding community. For more information, contact the LGBT Center.

The first-year group is for LGBT and questioning students. The group meets every Friday over lunch, which is provided. Join us each week for amazing food and great conversation. For more information, contact the LGBT Center.

For gay, lesbian, bisexual, trans-, queer or questioning students who are seeking to understand how their identity may impact various aspects of their lives.
