A brief description of the institution’s LGBTQ-inclusive policies, programs and practices:
At UW-Whitewater, students can take LGBTQ courses, visit the Pride Center, attend the Queer Cultural Series, live in gender-inclusive housing, and join 3 LGBTQ-specific student organizations! The PB Poorman Pride Center provides a space for LGBTQ+ students to relax and build community. The Pride Center is directed by the LGBT* Coordinator, one graduate assistant, and four undergraduate interns. They offer events throughout the year, including a speaker series, safer sex drive, movie nights, and book club. The Pride Center celebrates the end of every academic year by honoring the graduating LGBTQ + ally students at the Rainbow Celebration of Excellence. UWW is also home to three LGBTQ student organizations, including the long-standing IMPACT: LGBT + allies, TRANS*action, and QTPoC. The Women's & Gender Studies Department proudly offers one LGBTQ course every semester, including "Introduction to LGBTQ Studies" and "Queer Popular Culture."
