“Across the country, LGBTQ+ students, faculty, and leaders are navigating rising hostility and shrinking resources. Campus centers are being defunded, faculty silenced, and students made to feel unsafe simply for being visible. In this moment, our community needs connection, mentorship, and visible leadership more than ever.“
Joe Bertolino, President, Stockton University
