The President's Task Force on Gay, Bisexual, Lesbian, and Transgender (GBLT) Issues

Introduction

The task force was created by President McCormick on June 10th, 1999 to help him identify and address challenges facing gay, bisexual, lesbian, and transgender (GBLT) students, faculty, and staff at the University of Washington. He asked the members of the task force to:
  1. Collect and analyze information and serve as a forum for discussion of issues affecting GBLT students, staff, and faculty.
  2. Develop ways to advise the campus community on GBLT issues.
  3. Create a comprehensive list of resources that serve the needs of GBLT students, staff, and faculty
  4. Recommend ways to make the list of resources accessible to GBLT students, staff, and faculty
  5. Review existing UW policing regarding GBLT issues and recommend any changes or new policies which, in your judgement, are needed.
  6. Compose a list of resources that are needed, especially by GBLT students, staff, and faculty, but which are not currently available.
