Are You Dedicated to Diversity? Is the Welcome Mat Out?
Hrabe, Frank
Alabama Counseling Association Journal, v32 n1 p15-19 Spr 2006
American colleges and universities often refer to their "dedication to diversity". The truth is, some institutions really make an effort, and some only offer lip service. This article discusses ways on how college institutions can provide a more welcoming atmosphere to gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgendered (glbt) students through use of brochures, web sites, office surroundings, and informal networks.
