This book describes practical changes that universities and colleges can undertake to support LGBTQ+ students and create more affirming and inclusive campus climates. Integrating examples of structural and administrative changes guided by a minority stress model, the book addresses an array of LGBTQ+ student populations including transgender students, students with disabilities, student athletes, international students, and first-generation college students. The authors also cover issues unique to community colleges, religious institutions, and historically Black colleges and universities.
