Meetings and Programs

The LGBTQIA ERG is a welcoming community open to all OU employees interested in supporting each other and LGBTQIA issues on campus. Please join us as we identify strategies to increase LGBTQIA inclusivity at Oakland University, for social and support events, and professional development workshops. Please feel free to bring your lunch!

The meeting locations have been kept private for those who are not out with their students or colleagues. If you sign up for the listserv, meeting locations will be sent out the week of the meeting each month (when applicable).

OU Community members may add the LGBTQIA ERG Calendar (link opens in a new window) to see dates and times of all upcoming LGBTQIA ERG Meetings. 

Any questions or to get more involved please reach out to Anne Zacharias at [email protected].
