The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer and Questioning (LGBTQ+) Center works to create a welcoming, safe, inclusive, and equitable environment for LGBTQIA+ members of the Dickinson community. The LGBTQ+ Center strives to ensure campus environments that are supportive of student diversity in the areas of sexual orientation, gender identity and expression through a lens of intersectionality. Support services, resources, programs, advocacy, training, education, and consultation are provided to the members of the Dickinson College community.
We strive to improve the Dickinson College campus climate by coordinating efforts across campus, providing outreach to students, staff, and faculty, and working to ensure the inclusion and integration of LGBTQIA+ issues campus wide. Our goal is to enhance the Dickinson College campus community and to ensure the advancement of our studentsÂ’' academic pursuits by creating an open and affirming environment void of homophobia, heterosexism, cissexism, transphobia, and gender bias. Through educational, social, and supportive programming, along with conducting training sessions and consultation, the LGBTQ+ Center serves the entire campus community.
Dickinson College is a member of the Consortium of Higher Education LGBT Resource Professionals.
