New Learning Community!

The LGBTQ+ Learning Community is a year-long cohort program that fosters an inclusive and supportive learning environment for students identifying as LGBTQ+ across the gender and sexuality spectrums. Students in the cohort will take classes with coursework that encompasses LGBTQ+ content and material, as well as build community with like-minded students, faculty, staff and community partners. 

Resources 

By building partnerships with various campus and community-based resources, we are also able to facilitate referrals and identify support networks to boost student success both on and off campus.
