The Gender & Sexuality Center has an Advisory Board comprised of faculty, staff, and community members. The Advisory Board meets approximately three times each academic year and provides input on programming, research, development, and direction for the GSC.

The volunteer Advisory Board is initially compromised through invitations sent to a range of individuals with different academic, social, and political interests and backgrounds. If you would like to serve on the Advisory Board, please contact Liz Thomson, Assistant Director, at 312-413-8619 or lthomson@uic.edu.
