On-Campus Resources |
|
Included below is a brief list of
on-campus resources available to students, faculty, and staff.
This list certainly excludes many other members of the Davidson
College community who are willing to discuss issues of
sexuality. For instance, many professors have a
HRC sticker outside of their offices, indicating an openness
toward discussing GLBTQ issues with students. Nevertheless, the following resources are
extremely useful.
