Welcome to the Gender and Sexuality Center!

We are a community-based department that focuses on the exploration of self, the validation of one’s identity, and developing lasting networks. We offer support services to students, student clubs and organizations, staff, and administration. We also offer programming and events that celebrates the expression and development of one’s gender, sexuality, and intersectional identities.

The mission of the Gender and Sexuality Center is to encourage ESU community members to discuss and think introspectively on the many ways these identities influence our lives. Intersectionality and empowerment are the foundation of the GSC. We motivate students to become their best and true selves and educate how to be an ally and advocate.
