The Center is intended to be a safe space- to create a safe space requires that we all take responsibility for our contributions to maintaining such space for all. We are working to not replicate systems of oppression so that we can be our authentic selves. The goal of the Pride Center is to support the success of LGBTQ+ students. It is not an 'anything goes' space.
- Be true to yourself!
- All identities are welcome!

- Practice ultimate R•E•S•P•E•C•T
- Pronouns! We're not amateurs
- Be an ally, not a hater
- Treat this space as our home
- Not your bedroom
- Think, ask, act, listen, and adapt
- Use trigger warnings
- "Swiper, no swiping!"
- Vegas rules: keep the lessons, leave the details
- Read the room, not just each other
- Throw glitter, not shade
- Step up, step down
- Community, not cliques
- Build bridges, not fences
- Accountability with empathy
