Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender, Ally Programs Office

Lavender House


Lavender House is a Living & Learning Community within Comstock Hall for GLBT students, friends of GLBT students, students from GLBT families, and students who are queer, genderqueer, or questioning.

Founded in partnership between the Transgender Commission and Housing & Residential Life, Lavender House is open to any and all students who are interested in issues of gender identity and sexual orientation. In this community, students can explore and express who they are in a safe and affirming environment.

Students learn about the history and culture of the gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender communities, and are encouraged to participate in programs and classes offered by the Department of Gender, Women, and Sexuality Studies and the GLBTA Programs Office. Students will also connect with the larger Twin Cities GLBTA community through social events, service opportunities and guest speakers.
