How UNT is trying to be a welcoming place to LGBTQ+ Students

DENTON, Texas — Here in Texas the state's top ten largest universities are all working to be more inclusive and welcoming to the LGBTQ+ community — from The LGBTQ+ Pride Center at Texas A&M University, to the LGBTQ conference held earlier this year by University of Texas Rio Grande Valley. Whether it’s to make more enrolled students feel included, or to capture the attention of prospective high school seniors all are holding events and offering services catered to queer and questioning students.  

The University of North Texas in Denton is ranked number six in enrollment numbers but aims to be number one when it comes to offering services to students with the University’s Pride Alliance office. The office opened in the fall semester of 2013 on National Coming Out Day and is a unit of UNT’s Division of Institutional Equity & Diversity. The program was created to provide a campus office to specialize in resources on gender and sexuality and a safe space for marginalized orientations, gender identities, intersex, and questioning students.
