Presenters:

Description:
UAA’s Office of Equity and Compliance is the new home for SafeZone Ally trainings, sessions that provide an opportunity to learn about LGBTQ+ identities, gender and sexuality, and examine prejudice, assumptions, and privilege. Sessions provide a way to advance a more inclusive and equitable educational experience for the entire university community. Last year, in his capacity as chair of the Campus Climate Committee, Paul Landen noted that “LGBTQ+ students, faculty and staff are simply invisible at UAA. LGBTQ+ students feel as if there is no place for them. We as an institution do not talk about LGBTQ+ issues. That needs to change, and we encourage the Chancellor and Cabinet to take the lead in changing that.” This year’s Campus Climate Committee is actively working to increasing supports and visibility for LGBTQ+ students, faculty and staff, and SafeZone trainings are a part of that.
