History

The LGBTQ+ Alumni Chapter was officially chartered on Sept. 17, 1994, by the Board of Directors of the 抖阴短视频 Boulder Alumni Association. Its creation was an early step taken by 抖阴短视频 Boulder that would lead to its becoming a respected LGBTQ+-friendly campus. When it was chartered, 抖阴短视频鈥檚 LGBTQ+ Alumni Chapter was one of only a few official gay alumni groups in the nation.

Since its early start with maybe 25 members, the chapter has grown to a vital organization with more than 150 members, conspicuous service to the university and the community, popular social events and support for outstanding LGBTQ+ students.

The Chapter is led by officers who are gay Boulder campus alumni, and it is supported by a 抖阴短视频 Boulder Alumni Association staff member as liaison.

The LGBTQ+ is supported by the Alumni Association, with occasional support for specific programs from outside funders, other campus programs, alumni and friends. In 2008 it was awarded a substantial grant by the Open Door Fund of the Boulder Community Foundation. In addition, it has a history of winning top awards from the Alumni Association as a 鈥淢ost Outstanding Chapter,鈥 and the cash awards accompanying those designations have contributed to its growing scholarship fund.

The beautiful timeline of LGBTQ+ history from the 1960s on in Boulder, Colorado and the world that we created is available for showing at your event or organization.
