Petition to Create a Full-Time Staff Position to Represent the LGBTQ Students, Faculty, & Staff at the University of Cincinnati
Sign Now
We support the efforts of the UC Diversity Council to budget for the hiring of a LGBTQ specialist who would work as a full-time staff person to support the LGBTQ students, faculty, and staff at UC. We also want to maintain the current graduate assistant position of the LGBTQ Coordinator, which is currently the only position at the university dedicated solely to the concerns of LGBTQ students, faculty, and staff. We also advocate that the budget for LGBTQ programming should increase from its current $1,000, which is inadequate for meeting the numerous needs of this constituency. In light of the recent $4 million grant for minorities and women, we believe there is no reason to continue denying the LGBTQ community at UC adequate representation and support, and we think that creating this full-time position is only the first step of many in solving this problem and upholding UCs dedication to diversity.

I believe that by having a position like this available allows for UC and the LGBTQ population at this school to have more of a voice and I think help promote openness among LGBTQ individuals and uneducated individuals

This position makes good sense and is long over due. The needs of this population within the University cannot be adequately met or expanded given the current structure.

I work for CCHMC and our LGBT group is well represented and supported by our Diversity Office. UC should have the same. Thank you.
