Unity House

The mission of Unity House is to offer a supportive, educational, social and cultural environment; to enhance the awareness and acceptance of the LGBTQ+ community across campus; and to erase stigma associated with non-straight and non-cisgender identities in order to promote greater equity both on and off campus.

Led by two student managers under the direction of the Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, Unity House is a living and learning space, which serves as a resource and facility for LGBTQ+ focused programming. Regular programming includes heritage month celebrations; discussions about sexuality, gender identity, and gender expression; film screenings; LGBTQ+ focused social events; and much more. The center also contains a lounge with a diverse collection of books and resources.
