empowering environment for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender community
on campus.
- You will learn about the history and purpose of the SMU Allies program.
- You will discuss common myths and assumptions about lgbt individuals and
learn how these societal views of the lgbt population impact identity development,
the coming out process, and same-sex relationships.
- You will receive information regarding campus and community resources
supporting the lgbt community - including Spectrum, the chartered lgbt
affirming student organization.
- You will engage in an experiential exercise that will help sensitize you
to some of the losses that lgbt might face when considering coming out.
