The mission of the Rainbow community is to provide housing for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and questioning students, as well as their allies. The restrooms will be gender-inclusive. As a resident or guest of the community, you are expected to be respectful and sensitive to all identities within the LGBTQ+ community.
Learning Outcomes
By living together on the Rainbow Floor, residents will become self-aware and empowered students who foster inclusion at 51³Ô¹ÏÍø and thrive together. The following learning outcomes will be achieved:
-
Community
By living and learning together, members will cultivate a strong sense of self, community, and connection among LGBTQ+, gender expansive, and allied students.

Inclusion And Belonging
A strong sense of belonging will be fostered by members taking care of one another, accepting others, making meaningful connections with each other, building an affinity towards the hall/university, and being the best version of themselves. Â
