Did you know that there is a confidential support/discussion group for Susquehanna University students who are sexual and/or gender minorities? It’s called BGLASS.
The goal of the group is to create a safe and supportive space for student discussion. Possible topics include: parents and family; fitting in at SU; dating; coming out; politics; movies; resources.
BGLASS meets once a week, and all members agree to honor the group’s confidentiality.
If you are interested in attending this group or have questions about it, contact Andy Dunlap at 4437or e-mail dunlap@susqu.edu
