LGBTQ+ PRIDE Month

SWIC Library joins with the campus community in celebrating diversity!

Join us during the month of October, as we highlight and celebrate the history and achievements of the LGBTQ+ community. LGBTQ+ is an acronym for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer or questioning. The 'plus' sign refers to the many other self-identifications under the umbrella of 'sexuality' and/or 'gender'. LGBTQI+ is an umbrella term that encompasses the spectrum of people who aren't heterosexual.
