HOUSING INFORMATION FOR GLBTA STUDENTS!
If you wish to room with someone who is gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender or an ally, you may request to be placed with someone else who is looking for the same. The earlier you make your request, the better!
If you know the person you wish to room with, at the earliest time possible, please notify Angie Nichols, Director of GLBT Services to make arrangements with housing staff to accomodate your requests. Additionally, if you know the person with whom you wish to room, you may list each other's names on your housing applicaitons, and in parentheses I recommended writing "GLBT" under any spaces for special considerations. However, that said, I do wish to know that you have made the request, in order to:
Do our best to accomodate you.
Get you acquainted early with UMD GLBT Services, as well as the Queer and Allied Students Union (QASU) if you happen to be interested in this group, housed inside of the Multicultural Center.
Familiarize you with our informal advising, and referrals on/off campus for any other information you are seeking.
Give you information on scholarship opportunities within reach, monetary awards for papers, and other scholarly opportunities. Other: as requested.
Give you the opportunity to enlist in our advising program.
Angie Nichols, GLBT Services Director, UMD
