Queer Coalition
The Queer Coalition at Illinois State University is a faculty, staff, and graduate student affinity group for LGBTQ2IA+ Central Illinoisans. Our purpose is to:
Promote the diverse cultures of the LGBTQ2IA+ community at ISU and in the local area
Represent the interests, needs, and concerns of LGBTQ2IA+ faculty, staff, and students
Encourage communication, engagement, and support among the LGBTQ2IA+ community
Develop cooperative relationships in the ISU and local communities
Assist ISU with the recruitment and retention of LGBTQ2IA+ faculty, staff, and students
Support LGBTQ2IA+ students at ISU by offering scholarships when funding is available
Foreground the fact that all forms of oppression are interconnected and by so doing support and work toward racial justice.
Join Us
Membership is open to all current or former faculty, staff, graduate students and local community members. Please note that the university also has an LGBTQA+ Alumni Network and several queer-focused registered student organizations, including Pride, Drag Royalty, Queer Ed Birds.
