The Ñî¹óåú´«Ã½ÊÓƵ OUT List includes LGBTQ+ faculty and staff who serve as mentors and are part of an informal LGBTQ+ network as well as Ñî¹óåú´«Ã½ÊÓƵ's LGBTQIA2S+ Employee Resource Group.


The OUT List aids in recruiting and retaining talented individuals, fostering a culture of value and inclusivity, and demonstrating the university's commitment to diversity. All are welcome to contact OUT List members for advice and networking.

This list highlights some LGBTQ+ community members, acknowledging that safety concerns may prevent others from coming out. We hope it reminds everyone that LGBTQ+ people deserve to live openly and safely. If interested in joining, please reach out!

If you are 2SLGBTQIA+ identified faculty or staff and would like to be added, please contact Helen Boyd Kramer.
