LGBT Allies Program: In the News

This is a list of magazines and news sources to keep up-to-date on the LGBT community news (with a liberal dash of pop-culture, too).

The Advocate www.theadvocate.com
LGBTQ Nation www.lgbtqnation.com
Queerty www.queerty.com
The New Gay www.thenewgay.net
The Philadelphia Gay News www.epgn.com
The Washington Blade www.washingtonblade.com

Instinct www.instinctmagazine.com
Out www.out.com
LGBT News www.lgbt-news.com

The fine print: Some news sources change frequently, go out of business, etc. If you find a dead link, please inform OEI. Similarly, if there are emerging sources we should add to this list, let us know. Please note that neither OEI nor UD monitor these sources. We hope to reflect the LGBT community fairly, but if you find a source with unprofessional content, please let us know so we can consider removing it from the list of options.

For the readers in the group…

Assembled here is a (non-exhaustive) list of good reading options ranging in topics from coming out, assisting someone coming out, creating an inclusive campus, sexuality and religion, and many more. Check the UD Library – we may have it on our shelves – if not, we can make a request for purchase. As always, if you’ve read something that you’d like to add to the list, contact OEI!

DIVERSITY STATEMENT

As prepared by the Diversity and Equity Commission and The President's Diversity Initiative

The University of Delaware's educational mission is to prepare students to live in an increasingly interconnected and diverse world. To do so, we are committed to fostering a robust educational environment that supports critical thinking, free inquiry, and an understanding of diverse views and values. We see diversity as a core value and guiding principle for our educational mission and thus must work to make diversity an integral part of everyday life on campus. To this end, we take diversity to mean both the recognition and appreciation of the different backgrounds, values, and ideas of those who comprise our campus, as well as a commitment to ensuring that all people on our campus are treated according to principles of fairness, civility, dignity, and equity. We are committed to building an educational community that understands people from different backgrounds and economic circumstances, with different needs, and from diverse personal and philosophical beliefs. We want to make all people who are part of the University feel welcome and valued in campus life.
