Out @ MCLA

Out@MCLA is a voluntary community of Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts staff, faculty, and administrators who self-identify as members of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Intersex, and/or Asexual community. This bolsters our efforts to increase visibility of the LGBTQIA community on campus, as well as to provide a network of support for faculty, staff, and students. Through this list, we hope that students who identify as members of the community will be able to find mentors who are also members of the community. As we who are part of the community know, visibility is a critical part of our thriving on campus.

And, of course, the visibility of our LGBTQIA+ staff members is just the beginning of the resources we provide for our campus community in this regard. Check out some of our other supports in the Gender & Sexuality Center!
