LGBT Resource Center  
The LBGT Resource Center is a branch of the Center_for_Student_Involvement that works to provide a safe space and act as hub for organizations, resources, services, and programs of interest to the LGBT and Allied community at Northwestern.   Our aim is to increase visibility and awareness of issues surrounding gender and sexuality by uniting existing community entities and developing our own educational and outreach-oriented programming.
 
Advocate College Guide The Resource Center is proud to be named one of the 100 Best Campuses by the Advocate's College Guide for LGBT Students.
 

This is the first book of its kind and features real student, staff, and faculty quotes, several campus quick facts, and a comprehensive 20 point grading scale. Additional information about the book and ordering information can be found at alysonbooks.stores. yahoo.net/adlgcogu.html and a copy of it is in the Center.
