Team Q
Who We Are, What We Do
Team Q is a group of students trained to speak about lesbian, gay,
bisexual, and transgender issues. The team makes these issues real
for audiences by sharing their personal stories as lesbian, gay,
bisexual, transgender, and allied students. The group speaks to
residence halls, classes, sports teams, religious organizations,
student organizations, and many other audiences.
Discussions can focus on general LGBT issues, or can be focused on
specific topics for your group.
Guess the Straight Person is a new series of events from Team
Q that explores stereotypes about LGBT and straight people in a fun,
non-threatening game-show environment.
To schedule a Team Q event for your dorm, group, class, etc.,
or to learn more about joining Team Q, please contact Katherine
