The
Network
The UCLA LGBT Faculty-Staff Network supports
and promotes the interests and concerns of lesbian, gay, bisexual,
and transgender faculty and staff of the UCLA community by
social, educational, and political means. Founded in 1989,
it is one of the oldest Faculty-Staff groups in the country.
The Network welcomes all faculty and staff
at UCLA. Our email list is confidential and is not a listserv.
Membership is not indicative of one’s sexual orientation
or gender identity.
SOCIAL: Sponsors National Coming Out Week
reception, Annual Spring Anniversary Reception, Lavender Graduation,
Brown bag lunch events, Other events
EDUCATIONAL: Hosts special educational events
and training on campus about issues important to LGBT faculty
and Staff
POLITICAL: Fights for equality in all areas
of campus life including UC Domestic Partner Benefits, retirement

action regarding hate crimes and heterosexism.
…I am committed to providing
an open, safe and supportive environment for all members
of the university community, regardless of their race,
ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, and beliefs.
We will not tolerate actions that endanger their health
or safety, nor that violate their rights as citizens
and as members of the UCLA family.
- Chancellor Albert Carnesale, October 16, 1998 |

LGBT
Resources Just for YOU!
Available for the entire UCLA
community, the UCLA
LGBT Center is a great place to

area,” our 1,600 square foot Center also
offers computer use and printing at the David
Bohnett CyberCenter, over 4,000 volumes
of LGBT-related material in the circulating
Rae Lee Siporin LGBT Library,
advocacy, outreach and education, discussion
groups, a weekly film series, and other special
events. Please come by and visit! Our doors
open up to Bruin Plaza, in the heart of the
campus center--look for the rainbow flags in
our windows!
OutWrite
Newsmagazine is UCLA's lesbian, gay, bisexual,
transgender, intersex, queer, and questioning student newsmagazine.
Formerly called “Ten Percent,” we have served
UCLA and greater California since 1979. Make sure to pick
up an issue at the LGBT Center, or other select newstands
around campus!
The LGBT
Studies Program at UCLA is an interdisciplinary
program that supports teaching and research
on the historical and contemporary experience
of lesbians, gay men, bisexuals, and transgendered
people. It provides an academic home for those
who wish to study the intellectual and cultural
traditions that have shaped our current understanding
of sexuality and gender, as well as for those
who wish to challenge such traditions and generate
new theoretical paradigms. The program sponsors
courses, offers an undergraduate minor, organizes
lecture series, facilitates the study of minority
sexualities and genders in the broadest interdisciplinary
context, and tries to bring together interested
students, faculty, and members of the larger
Los Angeles community.
The UCLA
Film & Television Archive has a large selection
of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender material from a
wide range of television and motion picture productions. Approximately
three thousand additional titles are also accessible through
the Outfest LGBT Collection, established at the UCLA Film
& Television Archive in 2005 as part of the Outfest Legacy
Project for LGBT moving-image media preservation. Most of
these materials are available for on-site viewing through
the Archive's Research and Study Center (ARSC).
The Williams
Institute is a think tank dedicated to the field
of sexual orientation law and public policy, which also supports
legal scholarship, legal research, policy analysis, and education
regarding sexual orientation discrimination and other legal
issues that affect lesbian and gay people. Drawing on the
intellectual and material resources of UCLA, one of the world's
leading research universities, the Williams Institute provides
a national center for the interdisciplinary exploration of
these issues by scholars, judges, practitioners, advocates,
and students.
