'A Supportive Community Makes It a Lot Easier'
Students coming to žžÀ² State and, for some of them, living away from home for the first time can struggle with the transition. The transition can even be more difficult for LGBTQ+ students, particularly for those who have recently "come out." Ken Ditlevson, director of žžÀ² State's LGBTQ+ Center, talks about the many resources available at žžÀ² to support them.

It's a Rainbow Week at žžÀ² State!
žžÀ² State and the city of žžÀ² encourage people to attend any of the LGBTQ+ events on campus and downtown this week.
