The LGBT community is inclusive of not only undergraduate students, but also graduate students, staff, and faculty. The LGBT Resource Center, along with other community resource centers work together to eliminate “traditional notions and historical structures of diversity and equality.” The centers exercise education and sense of belonging by engaging the entire community in interactive dialogue and self-awareness. Undergraduate and graduate students, staff and faculty identifying as lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender and allies of the community are supported by the centers to engage in healthy and productive ways at UC San Diego.
