<Tagline>UMBC's Commitment to Being a Gender-inclusive Campus</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <div><span>Dear Members of the Campus Community,</span></div>
    <div><span><br></span></div>
    <div><span>Yesterday, the U.S. Departments of Education and Justice rescinded existing guidance on Title IX regulations that protected transgender students' access to school bathrooms and locker rooms matching their <span>gender</span> identities. As a university that values inclusion, diversity, and the dignity of all people, we believe it is essential to affirm UMBC’s ongoing support of LGBTQ+ students, faculty, and staff following this decision.</span></div>
    <div><span><br></span></div>
    <div><span>UMBC will continue to fulfill its commitment to providing equal, <span>gender</span>-inclusive access to university facilities. UMBC is proud to offer dozens of <span>gender</span>-neutral restrooms across the university's public buildings, dorms, and offices—with a commitment to include all-<span>gender</span>restrooms in every newly constructed building—as well as <a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/jtwwl/vuxzxbb/bne86c" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><span>gender</span>-inclusive housing</a>. As a member of the America East conference, we partner with the You Can Play Project and LGBT SportSafe Inclusion Program to create a safe, respectful, and inclusive environment for LGBTQ+ athletes in the locker room and on the playing field.</span></div>
    <div><span><br></span></div>
    <div><span>We also recognize that despite our commitment to fostering a welcoming <span>gender</span>-inclusive community at UMBC, LGBTQ+ people across the country will feel the impact of yesterday’s decision as it affects their access to facilities and feelings of safety and belonging. For additional support, our community members can reach out to the <a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/jtwwl/vuxzxbb/rff86c" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">UMBC Counseling Center</a>(which offers a support group for trans students), <a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/jtwwl/vuxzxbb/77f86c" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">USG Center for Counseling and Consulting</a>,<a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/jtwwl/vuxzxbb/n0g86c" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Mosaic Center for Diversity and Inclusion</a>, office of the vice president of <a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/jtwwl/vuxzxbb/3sh86c" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Student Affairs</a>,<a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/jtwwl/vuxzxbb/jli86c" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Women’s Center</a> (which hosts bi-weekly Spectrum meetings), <a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/jtwwl/vuxzxbb/zdj86c" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">University Health Services</a>(which provides inclusive health care), and <a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/jtwwl/vuxzxbb/f6j86c" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">LGBTQ Faculty and Staff Association</a>. Additional resources are available through the <a href="https://t.e2ma.net/click/jtwwl/vuxzxbb/vyk86c" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">UMBC Diversity and Inclusion site</a>.</span></div>
    <div><span><br></span></div>
    <div><span>Over the coming weeks, we will continue to closely monitor developments regarding national protections for transgender students, including a Supreme Court case that will be heard in March on transgender student bathroom access.</span></div>
    <div><span><br></span></div>
    <div><span>Thank you for all you do every day to make UMBC a safe, caring, and inclusive learning community.</span></div>
    <div><span><br></span></div>
    <div><em><span><span>President Freeman <span>Hrabowski</span> and Provost Philip Rous</span></span></em></div>

It is vital for everyone to participate in this important work in K-12 schools, universities, communities and every space where learning occurs to ensure that we build a better world where all children can thrive. The NAME 2017 conference, in Salt Lake City provides an opportunity for thought provoking exchange, renewed vision and taking action on issues affecting all aspects of diversity and social inequities experienced by students in their learning contexts.
