When it comes to finding a school that is LGBTQ-friendly, it’s not as much about whether colleges and universities give LGBTQ students special treatment as much as it is about how these colleges and universities teach acceptance and understanding for all people. To what extent are today’s schools not only helping their LGBTQ students feel accepted, safe and comfortable with their surroundings, but also teaching those outside of the LGBTQ community about awareness, acceptance and respect for all of their fellow students, regardless of their identity and orientation?
Schools are doing much more than they used to, and their efforts are improving each year. Research shows that today’s colleges and universities want to be viewed as safe and welcoming places to all students, and they are happy to go the extra mile to ensure that they are. Some efforts these schools are continuously working to improve include safety concerns, recruitment, awareness and education both in and outside of the LGBTQ community.
The following list was compiled based on individual research of each school. The order in which they’re presented is not intended to imply a ranking.
USC has LGBT-supportive organizations for undergraduates, graduates, high school students, freshmen, staff, faculty, alumni and students from other schools.
Every year since 1990, USC’s Queer & Ally Student Assembly publishes the OUTlist in the Daily Trojan on National Coming Out Day. The list is a declaration of support for the LGBT and Ally Community signed by those supportive individuals among students, staff, faculty and alumni.
The LGBT Resource Center provides an abundance of online resources, programs and involvement opportunities to anyone within the USC community. Some of their signature programs include an Athlete Chat, Greek Chat, uRap—a weekly confidential discussion group—and the “Safe Zone” Program.
USC Housing also offers the Rainbow Floor to undergraduate and graduate students, which is a “special interest resident community that provides support, education and advocacy opportunities for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and ally (LGBTQA) students,” according to the website .
The Princeton Review ranked Warren Wilson No. 5 in its top 20 LGBT-Friendly Schools.
This school has a newly-formed Gender and Relationship Center as well as LGBT-specific course offerings, transgender student housing options, gender neutral restroom facilities and organizations like S.A.F.E. (Student Alliance for Equality) and EMPOWER. Instead of focusing only on LGBT support, EMPOWER offers events, programs and discussion circles that address all issues of social injustice and inequality, including—but not limited to—racism, sexism, classims and heterosexism.
The good people of Tulane’s Office for Gender and Sexual Diversity (OGSD) work to establish a climate of respect, understanding and appreciation for diverse genders, sexualities, cultures and histories. They work closely with the Office of Multicultural Affairs to address the ways in which gender and sexuality intersect with race, ethnicity, class, etc. In a nutshell, the OGSD offers resources, programs, mentorship, advising, education, consultation, workshops and LGBT-supportive spaces on campus.
Through the OGSD, Tulane works with other universities, non-profits and other outside organizations to promote, entertain, empower and support their LGBT community and their allies. One program example is the Pride Prom—an annual prom event that benefits BreakOUT!, a New Orleans non-profit that advocates and mentors LGBT youth.
Online, Tulane students can find a long list of student, administrator, faculty and staff allies as well as resources for housing, academic opportunities and more.
Cornell’s LGBT Resource Center created the LGBTQ Guide to Cornell , which provides a colorful tour of the LGBT resources, history, academics, traditions and leisure options around campus. Each point on this map features classes, events, etc. for the community and friends, all of which are fully described on the back of the map.
Students can connect through the Resource Center’s faQ Online Chat, a confidential student mentoring service where other students will answer questions about all LGBTQ concerns.
At Cornell, students will find LGBT groups of all shapes and sizes, such as LGBTQA First Year Group, Ga’avah: LGBT Jewish Group, Greeks United, Mosaic—for same gender-loving people of color—and the Graduate and Professional Student LGBT Collective. The university also has a “world-renowned” Human Sexuality Collection within their libraries.
Through the Center for LGBT Education, Outreach & Services at Ithaca , students have access to multiple LGBT-directed scholarship applications, online resources, social events, organizations, educational presentations, training workshops, a reading list, and other programs and services. Ithaca even has a tobacco prevention and cessation program directed specifically to LGBT students.
Ithaca’s four LGBT-specific student organizations —Created Equal, Athlete Ally, PRISM and Spectrum—are all dedicated to addressing and providing solutions within the LGBT community.
An extra bonus for both Cornell and Ithaca LGBT students is the schools’ location. Ithaca, N.Y. is a great town for LGBT and Allied people because of the open and out city and council legislators, many welcoming and affirming religious institutions, year-round sport leagues catered to the community, LGBTA-owned restaurants, stores and services, a city LGBTQ Task Force, an LGBT Family Building Program at a local family planning clinic and two community LGBT choruses.
Berkeley’s Gender Equity Resource Center (GenEq) has roots in the 1970s, and its community center is the spot on campus for students, faculty, staff and alumni to connect for resources, services, education and programs concerning gender and sexuality.
Through the center, students can find many resources on student organizations, such as oSTEM, Q@Haas and the Queer Straight Alliance ; educational workshops for subjects like Transgender 101, sexism and the Ally Program; and discussion groups, such as “M^3: Men, Masculinity and Manhood,” “QPOC Together: Queer People of Color” and “Women’s Chat Circles.”
LGBT students can also find inclusive housing through the Unity House program, which offers students a mixed-gender roommate option, and Unity House embraces honest dialogue about gender, gender roles, sexuality and interpersonal relationships. The Oscar Wilde House Co-Op, which “welcomes and lavishes affection upon all open-minded residents and guests, regardless of sexual orientation.”
Princeton’s LGBT Center is nationally-recognized and the school has been nationally ranked as a top university for LGBT students repeatedly since 2006, according to College Pride.
On the Center’s homepage , you will find a list of almost-daily events going on for the week, as well as a list of the gender-free bathrooms around campus. The rest of the website highlights the 17 LGBTQA student groups, weekly programs, on, off-campus and online resources, peer education, Lavender Graduation, programs like “Q’nnect” and discussion and support groups. At the Center, LGBT students and friends will find that and more while developing a personal relationship with fellow students, staff, faculty and alumni.
When it comes to LGBT academics, Princeton’s LGBT & Queer Studies is constantly expanding. One publication quoted a male Princeton senior who said, “This last semester, I took a course entitled Queer Theory and Politics. Unlike most other courses at Princeton, this one allowed us to actively apply what we had learned in class in a real-world context.”
Michigan’s Spectrum Center was the first college LGBT resource center in the U.S.; it was founded in 1971. Today, the office has grown to four full-time professional positions. The university also strives to employ faculty who study and teach LGBT issues.
U of M has a non-discrimination policy, which includes sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression. Students can find gender-neutral bathrooms around campus, and they have the option to use a preferred name different from the one on their birth certificate. Transgender healthcare coverage and gender-neutral housing are also available to students.
The Spectrum Center hosts a long list of student and faculty LGBT-supported groups. With groups that range from “Bisexuals, Gays, Lesbians, and Allies in Medicine (BGLAM)” to “Stonewall Democrats,” it’ll be hard not to fit in as an LGBT student at Michigan.
Connecticut’s LGBTQ Resource Center serves as a resource for the entire campus –not just those who identify themselves under the LGBT umbrella—to learn about issues related to sexuality and gender identity, according to the Center’s homepage.
It’s difficult not to feel comfortable at the Center because of the welcoming attitude from staff and students, comfortable couches, working fireplace, occasional refreshments and fuzzy blankets. Five LGBT-related programs—like student trainings, workshops and the “Queer Camel Welcome Program”—and special events take place at the Center regularly.
Online, students can find resources for on campus, academic research and youth, local, regional and national organizations.
The UIC Gender and Sexuality Center (GSC) has been around for 20 years, and their programs are designed to highlight LGBTQ identities and the layers within, including race, class, ability, geography, immigration status and religious affiliation.
Just last year, Huffington Post named UIC among the top 25 LGBTQ-friendliest campuses in the country.
Ongoing programs at Center include Queer Compass, a series of workshops to help LGBTQA students navigate and become more acquainted with the university, and Queer Oral History, a vast collection UIC LGBTQ student and faculty life experiences.
In the spring of 2011, the Department of Multicultural Life led an initiative to convert a number of restrooms into all-gender restrooms around campus. The campus now has over 15.
The Department of Multicultural Life hosts LGBTQ@MAC to help integrate and affirm the individuals, discourses, thoughts and experiences of marginalized people into the campus community. And from start to finish, this department supports the LGBT students. Every year, the DPL sponsors the Lavender Reception—a fall semester reception celebrating the queer community on campus for students to learn about resources and support services—and the Lavender Graduation, which recognizes the contributions and accomplishments of Macalester’s LGBT graduating seniors.
To increase the LGBT community’s visibility on campus, Macalester faculty and staff members, who self-identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex and/or asexual, include their names on the online Out and Proud community list .
Macalester also ranked No. 15 on The Princeton Reviews Top 20 LGBT-Friendly Schools.
In 2009, Penn State initiated a Sexuality and Gender minor for undergraduates, and the school offers more than 30 LGBT-related courses. Through these courses, as well as other workshops and “Straight Talks,” students and faculty from a wide range of beliefs and backgrounds educate the campus community on sexual orientation, gender identity, oppression and diversity.
Since 2006, undergraduate and graduate students enrolled in the university’s student health insurance plan are eligible for hormone therapy and surgery as part of their regular coverage. The school also provides domestic partnership benefits like health care, dental and eye insurance and gym passes.
Penn State’s president even has an advisory group for the LGBT community on campus, called the Commission on Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Equity.
UCLA’s Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Campus Resource Center is a member of the David Bohnett Foundation and the Consortium of Higher Education LGBT Resource Professionals .
The Center’s homepage consists of a list of colorful flyers promoting social events like “Cookies & Queers”—a social for first years and transfers—and the Annual LGBTQ Fall Resource Fair. There are also links to resources like the campus’ Out List, LGBTQ scholarship applications and UCLA’s Rainbow Connection, a confidential chat that connects students with trained peer mentors.
They offer services like outreach and education, advocacy, student counseling and an ally network, as well as the Rae Lee LGBT Center Library—one of the largest libraries of its kind at a college with almost 4,000 books and periodicals for and about LGBT people.
In the spirit of National Coming Out Day (October 11), the University of Chicago’s Office of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer Student Life celebrates OUTober, a free event where they host an LGBT-related speaker like transgender activist CeCe McDonald (pictured above).
Students have access to over 10 LGBTQ student organizations, like Outlaw, a LGBT group for law students, and Queers United In Power (QUIP), UChicago’s LGBTQ activism and social justice organization.
While celebrating National Coming Out Day in 2010, UChicago’s Office of LGBTQ Student Life started their “Coming Out Stories” project, which shares the stories of campus community members through written narratives and video. All of these are available online.
The Queer Resource Center at Portland offers a queer student services program, which offers academic support to students exploring their sexual orientations and gender identities. These services include academic coaching and a college success course for LGBTQIA students.
Students also have the opportunity to follow PSU’s Women, Gender and Sexuality Studies (WGSS) interdisciplinary program, where women’s studies advisors work closely with each student to create a study course that matches the student’s academic interests and post-graduate goals.
Online, LGBT-identified military personnel and student athletes can find helpful resources on campus as well as in and around Portland.
Other than free printing services and free coffee and tea, the Queer Resource Center at Amherst offers a library with over 500 books and DVDs, queer magazines, periodicals and newspapers, Queer/Trans 101 Trainings and more.
Some examples of Amherst LGBT-supporting student groups are Men of the Valley, a confidential social-support group for self-expressed men, and Pride Alliance, the main student organization “for LGBTQIAP students.”
For those LGBT students looking for work related to sexuality and gender, the Queer Resource Center has a page dedicated to a list of organizations for job and internship opportunities , such as Social Services and the National Lesbian and Gay Journalists Association.
Amherst, Mass. seems to know what to do when it comes to making LGBT-students feel at home. It doesn’t hurt that Amherst is located within the Pioneer Valley, which has a large LGBT population.
Following the other LGBT-pioneering universities, UMass established the Program for Gay, Lesbian and Bisexual Concerns in 1985, which is now “The Stonewall Center: A Lesbian, Bisexual, Gay and Transgender Educational Resource Center.”
At The Stonewall Center, students have access to free and anonymous HIV and STD testing, bulletin board kits for campus residence assistants, ally training, career services and many other helpful resources.
UMass also has the nation’s oldest LGBTQA residence hall program. The Gender-Inclusive Housing residential community, the Spectrum floor—the LGBTA living-learning community—and housing assignments for trans students are all available at request.
Augsburg’s mission is to foster “intentional diversity in its life and work,” which is why the school was renamed a Reconciling in Christ (RIC) institution by Reconciling Works: Lutherans for Full Participation in 2009; the statement that accompanies the recognition means that Augsburg is “welcoming and affirming to all people in regard to their gender expression, gender identity, and sexual orientation.”
Since then, Augsburg’s Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Questioning, Intersex, and Asexual (LGBTQIA) Student Services works to improve the campus environment for everyone by providing resources to LGBT students and by teaching and training other students, staff and faculty to improve upon the inclusive environment.
The school now features all-gendered restrooms, a list of which can be found online , as well as LGBT-related awards and scholarships, the campus Queer Pride Alliance organization and other supportive services, programs and even an LGBTQIA Leadership Retreat.
