The LGBTQIA+ Working Group fosters a community at Rhodes that promotes belonging, empowerment, and growth for people of all genders and sexualities through advocacy and community building.
In addition to other events, the LGBTQIA+ Working Group and Office of Alumni Relations hold the Lavender Celebration each year, honoring and acknowledging the achievements and contributions of LGBTQIA+ students and celebrating graduating LGBTQIA+ seniors.
Members of the Rhodes LGBTQIA+ community, alumni, their friends, and supporters are encouraged to participate in the Rhodes College chapter of EquaLynx. Details about future EquaLynx events can be found on the chapter page. If you are interested in joining EquaLynx please contact Mimi Salazar, salazarm@rhodes.edu, director of Alumni Relations.
