| University of Maryland named a Top 25 LGBT-Friendly Campus
Huffington Post has named UMD as a Top 25 LGBT-Friendly Campus. To qualify for the list, each institution must earn five stars overall in the Campus Pride Index, as well as sexual orientation and gender identity/expression, and score 4.5 stars or above in all eight LGBT-friendly factors.
Fifteen years ago, UMD created the LGBT Equity Center to help establish and maintain a fully equitable campus environment for people of all sexual orientations and gender identities or expressions. Today, the LGBT Equity Center has expanded its mission to include empowering innovators and agents of inclusion for LGBT people.
"UMD strives to remain at the forefront of supporting our LGBT student population so that they may reach their full potential," said Luke Jensen, director of UMD's campus LGBT Equity Center. "We are also committed to preparing all students to become leaders who will create positive change for LGBT diversity and inclusion wherever they go."
