Racer Pride Press
August 2021
We are rebranding our space! We are excited to welcome our LGBTQ+ students to the Pride Center this fall. It is a change which is meant to signify our focus on belonging, community, and engagement. Our goal is to enhance the space so that the Pride Center becomes representative of a hub for student connection.
The Office of LGBT Programming will continue to denote the work of the Coordinator to provide programming and training to the broader campus community, while the Pride Center brand will represent the space we are working to create for our students!
RSVP for the Welcome Back Ice Cream Social - August 18th at 4 pm
Inaugural Pride List Publication
This virtual publication is an opportunity for students, faculty, staff, administrators, alumni, community members and family members to show their pride and allyship! Signing the Pride List lets our LGBTQ+ Racers know that they are supported and welcome members of our community. The publication will be released annually on October 1st.
Share Your Pronouns
- Wear a pronoun button during Great Beginnings and on the first day of classes! We have buttons available in the Pride Center.
- Share your pronouns when you introduce yourself to roommates, classmates, residents, students, colleagues, etc.
- Ask residents and students to share their pronouns as part of your normal first day and get to know you activities.
- Update your email signature line to include your pronouns.
- Update your Zoom display to include your pronouns.
We encourage allies and LGBTQ+ Racers alike to take these steps to create a welcoming environment as we kick off the semester.
