Equity

The University of Arizona Faculty & Staff 
for Gay, Lesbian and Bisexual Equity

Our History
1992 Campus Climate Survey for Gays, Lesbians, and Bisexuals
1998 Campus Climate Survey for Gays, Lesbians, and Bisexuals
How the Climate Has Changed
The surveys above were made possible by funding from the UA's Diversity Action Council.
If you would like more information on either survey, please email Sandy Fagan at sfagan@u.arizona.edu

Another project is to make the LGBT faculty and staff more aware of the domestic partner benefits that are currently available to them, i.e. Campus Recreation Center membership, discount tickets to performances at Centennial Hall, Career Services' spouse/partner relocation program. At the same time, our goal is to educate the campus community of the inequity of so many other benefits that are afforded only to heterosexuals, i.e. health benefits, family bereavement leave, spousal tuition waiver, etc...

If you have comments or suggestions, email Noel Matkin, Equity Chairperson and Professor of Speech & Hearing Science at matkin@ccit.arizona.edu
