We encourage you to understand your rights, explore your options (i.e., geographic regions, industries, LGBTQ+ friendly employers, etc.), and utilize your resources, as you aim to find a workplace with a culture that is safe, inclusive, and supportive of your identity as a member of the LGBTQ+ community. While at the U, make sure you check out the LGBTQ Student Center!
