The SDSU Pride Employee Resource Group is an alliance of nearly 200 faculty, staff, and student employees committed to an inclusive, open campus community, advancing equality for LGBTQIA+ people. We come together to build personal connections, celebrate, learn, and foster social justice and equity within the larger SDSU and LGBTQIA+ community. Through advocating for rights, encouraging discussions, and seeking solutions, we act as agents of positive change for employees as well as students.
LGBTQ+ Studies at San Diego State University is an independent and interdisciplinary program that is housed in the College of Arts and Letters.
