T. Greg Doucette is TGD if i'm not mistaken.

It'd be interesting to see how he responds to the criticism of this sort of thing.

This sounds pretty gay

But beyond that, I don't think we need to spend more public funding with programs to compartmentalize us in the name of "diversity"

This does nothing but further segment the student population.

So they "strongly encourage" establishing this. Any other word on whether or not the university would actually do this or would they just tell people to go to Berkeley instead?

That's really, really sad.

I agree completely. I think it's a bad use of public money. I'm not saying they haven't wasted money on things that were dumber--I'm just saying this is dumb as well.

I am not against an LGBT Center per se. Like bgmims, in general, my concern is that these type of centers mostly help to further balkanization of the student body and ultimately society.

this is fucking ridiculous

if the LGBT want to conduct this on their own, then fine. but to use student funds for this nonsense?

have a car wash, do a bake sale, raise money ... student funds do not belong in this.

Quote :
"WHEREAS, LGBT students are 3 times as likely to attempt or commit suicide as non-LGBT students"


welcome to student health .. they have resourses for this

Quote :
"WHEREAS, LGBT students consistently report far greater fear of physical violence than their peers and a greater level of in-class stereotyping or harassment; and,

WHEREAS, North Carolina State University was ranked as the 17th least LGBT-friendly school in the country by the Princeton Review; and
"


sorry, but this will not prevent hate crimes ... have seminars instead to instruct on how to avoid situations where violence might occur .. this is not new

Quote :
"WHEREAS, Everyone should be free to learn in an environment where they feel comfortable"


Library, coffee shop, friends apartments

Quote :
"WHEREAS, the presence of an LGBT center can greatly improve the educational and social

experiences of LGBT students, provide a supportive network that could reduce the risk of suicide in the LGBT community, and create an environment where LGBT students and their allies can congregate safely; now, therefore be it"


there are plenty of clubs, organizations, groups, ect ect .. that safely meet, congregate, socialize and support each other with out using student funds .. this is ridiculous

In full agreement, i'm not against a center, but it's a dumb idea. It's another way to compartmentalize, and another waste of funds that should be spent on something that will benefit all students.

That, and it isn't going to help any sort of overall non-acceptance at state, if anything i can see a lot of resentment b/c of the center (not me, just saying).

I'm GLAD I won't be around to see this horse shit. I'm sorry but if anyone who would be a member of this group wants to be accepted as "this is how I was born" then funding a support group is not the way to do it -- to me it inherently says something's wrong with the members -- and whether I agree with their choices or not I think if they want to find a group, go find one off campus. There are already enough bullshit student fees without adding to the stack.

I love gay people but I think this is a dumb idea. Making a building just for one group of people is not a fair practice and does nothing but single out LGBT people even more, which does not promote acceptance.

It seems unecessary to have a center be established on the biases on ones sexual orientation. Especially when academic student fees are meant to further the individuals education, rather than cater to social concerns.

in this day and age, one student center is all that is needed.

I wouldn't be against having 'office' space to base special interest organizations out of. but having separate centers is ridonkulous.

I fully support the NCSU BGLA, but I really don't see the need for a special center. what will it offer that is not already offered? I used to attend a school with a very active, very visible BGLA and never did they ever propose anything like this. They looked moreso to actually be part of the normal campus environment as a student organization aimed at promoting true awareness.

If they have one, thats fine, but they should probably raise their own money for it, or get donations from community organizations/businesses.

Hah, the first guy I saw listed as a member of that facebook group was on my basketball team in middle school

^^^^ People should be able to speak up any time they feel their fees are not being well spent. Not wise in my opinion to advocate sitting in silence and letting people do whatever they want. Ya know, cause historically that's always been the way to bring forth change/fairness/innovation of any sort....

Nothing to do w/ homophobia at all.

hey there's a bunch of kids at State that are into country music. Whether they were born liking country or made the decision, they outnumber the amount of gays at State. AND, because of their musical orientation, they fear for their safety amongst hip-hop, rock, and electronic music fans.


COUNTRY MUSIC CENTER FTW.
