The short answer: yes.<\/p>\n
The LONG answer: The Chancellor\u2019s Task Force on Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Issues<\/a> was formed to advise University administration of the needs of faculty, staff and students on our campus with regards to sexual orientation and gender identity – to give them a voice. Representatives from all over campus come together one a month to discuss matters which affect the UWW LGBT community. In our last meeting, we talked about all of the things that we\u2019ve accomplished over the last year. In my humble opinion, I think that we\u2019ve done some pretty awesome things, like conducting a self-assessment of our campus climate, revamping the Safe Zone materials, and dedicating the PB Poorman Memorial Garden, to name a few.<\/p>\n But here\u2019s the kicker: not too many people know about us – we\u2019re under the radar (maybe in the closet? sorry, couldn\u2019t resist.) The blog is a way to let the campus community know what we\u2019re doing as a task force. It also serves as a vehicle for dialogue with you! As much as we wish that we could have everyone come to the meetings, we\u2019ve already outgrown at least three meeting spaces, if not more. Talk to us and give us feedback. The comments area is there for a reason (as an aside – the comments are moderated<\/strong> – please keep them appropriate and constructive).<\/p>\n Hopefully you will find this useful and worth checking back once in a while. We\u2019ll be here. =)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The short answer: yes.
