Resources on Campus
The Office of LGBT Resources is a resource not only for the LGBT community but for the entire University community. It serves as a resource for anyone who is interested and committed to learning about LGBT people, issues, and concerns. And for the LGBT community, the Office is a resource that provides support for full inclusion for all within the University — including those who experience homophobia or who need support in coping with their status as a lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender member of the campus. www.odos.uiuc.edu/lgbt/
