Senior Melissa Gindin, a co-vice president of Allied in Pride, calls on the University to quickly appoint a new and permanent director to the LGBT Resource Center.

The LGBT Resource Center has been without a full-time director for 14 months, and for members of the community it remains uncertain when or if this issue will be resolved.

Now the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community is calling on the University to take action and provide its students with the support and recognition they rightfully deserve.

The LGBT community now finds itself in a precarious position. As the University has recently approved both an LGBT studies minor and gender-neutral housing – measures that articulate the University’s admirable attempts to provide a welcoming and supportive atmosphere at GW – we are also now left without a resource center director.
