The LGBTQ+ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer and/or Questioning) Resource Center is both a welcoming space and supportive network for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer/questioning, intersex, asexual, and other LGBTQIA+ identities, and allied students, staff, and faculty.
By fostering a culture of respect, advocacy, and empowerment, the center promotes an inclusive community where everyone is celebrated for who they are, providing a supportive environment to learn, work, and grow in a supportive environment. The center aims to bring together the talents of students, staff, and faculty for the express purpose of educating the campus community through academic programming, the arts, and entertainment about issues that affect the LGBTQIA community.
We are steadfast in upholding our commitment to protecting LGBTQIA+ students, and CUNY’s own policy prohibits discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity.
Are you an LGBTQIA+ student graduating this spring or summer, or an alumnus who graduated in fall 2023? Connect and celebrate at Lavender Graduation on May 23. This ceremony honors LGBTQIA+ students and their contributions to our community. Family, friends, staff, and faculty are welcome.
