The LGBTQIA ERG is a welcoming community open to all OU employees interested in supporting each other and LGBTQIA issues on campus. Please join us as we identify strategies to increase LGBTQIA inclusivity at Oakland University, for social and support events, and professional development workshops. Please feel free to bring your lunch!
The meeting locations have been kept private for those who are not Out with their students or colleagues. If you sign up for the listserv, meeting locations will be sent out the week of the meeting each month (when applicable).
Any questions or to get more involved please reach out to Kelli Dowd at lgbtqia_erg@oakland.edu
