The Queer, Questioning and Allied Mentor Program (QQAMP)
The Queer, Questioning and Allied Mentor Program (QQAMP) is
a five-college program open to all students designed to
provide students with support, one-on-one interactions,
information, and a way to learn more and get involved with
the queer, questioning and allied community on campus. The
QQAMP mentors are students from all five schools who
identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgendered, queer,
and straight. They are trained and can provide support and
informed guidance on any queer-related issue, including, but
not limited to:
- Self acceptance as lesbian, gay, bisexual, queer,
transgendered, or intersex
- Coming out to friends and/or family
- Finding resources at the college, local, and national
levels
- Learning what it means to be a good ally to the queer
community
- Working through confusion about sexual orientation and/or
gender identity
- Meeting other queer, questioning, and allied students on
the campuses and in the surrounding community
- Understanding how sexual orientation and/or gender
identity intersect with other aspects of identity, including
race, sex, religion, physical ability, culture, class, etc.
Confidentiality is of paramount importance for QQAMP. Each
mentored student’s involvement in the Mentor Program will
not be known by anyone except the mentors unless he or she
wishes otherwise. The mentor/mentee relationship will be
driven by the wants and needs of the mentee. QQAMP will host
various events throughout the year, including an
orientation, parties, study breaks, workshops, and speakers.

Queer Faculty and Staff Mentor Program
The mission of the Queer Faculty and Staff Mentor Program is
to pair queer faculty and staff with queer and questioning
students in order to provide them with guidance and support
throughout their college career. Queer faculty and staff
mentors assist students as they develop academically,
professionally, and socially as members of the five college
community and the surrounding world. Mentors help students
address issues of identity while also helping them find a
healthy balance between leadership positions and their
academic responsibilities. Our goal is to foster community
building and encourage more faculty/staff and student
interaction.
