LGBTQ+ Information for Alumni

Alumni are an integral part of the LGBTQ+ community at Penn State University. 

Stay Connected after Graduation

Help us build our alumni network by sending us your contact information and interests.

Attend Events and Programs

Attend our annual LGBTQ+ Pride events during Homecoming and Blue/White Weekend or the Lavender Graduation Ceremony celebrating the accomplishments of graduating LGBTQ+ students at the conclusion of each academic year. Find out more about these events. 

Join Our Alumni Networks

There are several Penn State LGBTQ+ alumni networks. See below for the many ways to network between Penn State alumni who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, asexual, or as an ally.

ListServ
Through our listserv, LGBTQ+ alumni receive notices about regional events, information about our work to make Penn State an inclusive place for all students, and updates regarding general campus news relevant to LGBTQ+ communities.

If you would like to be added to the Center for Sexual and Gender Diversity listserv, please send an email to our listserv subscription service L-LGBTQA-ALUMNI-subscribe-request@lists.psu.edu.

Alumni Advisory Board
The Alumni Advisory Board is comprised of Penn State alumni who are committed to future development of the Center for Sexual and Gender Diversity and, more broadly, to LGBTQ+ students at The Pennsylvania State University.

Alumni Interest Group (AIG)
Alumni Interest Groups (AIGs) give alumni a creative way to stay connected with the people they knew during their student years at Penn State. AIGs also give alumni a way to interact and network with folks with similar interests after they leave Penn State. Join the LGBTQ+ AIG to continue your Penn State pride!
