GLTBQ
Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer & Questioning Resource Guide
Statement of Purpose
Boston College, as a Catholic and Jesuit University, has a responsibility to promote the pastoral care of all members of the university community and is committed to the intellectual, social, and spiritual development of all our students. The University seeks to foster a campus culture that welcomes diversity, embraces inclusivity, promotes dialogue, and creates a safe and supportive environment for all.This brochure lists resources for Boston College students who may be questioning their sexual identity, have questions arising from their sexual identity, have general questions about the GLBT community, or just need someone to dialogue with about their personal lives and how to be their most authentic selves. While a “contact person” is listed for each office, it by no means indicates that this particular individual is the only person in the office who can provide assistance.The variety of these resources reflects the commitment of Boston College to providing a safe,caring, and supportive environment for the healthy development of all of our students. Connecting students with this information promotes wellness, fosters greater opportunities to learn about respect, equality and identity, and contributes to the development of a more just and authentic community.
