The University of North Georgia aims to create a more caring campus culture in which bias, harassment, and violence have no place—and every member of our community is free to flourish.
Support initiatives and resources on campus include:
Students requesting a Preferred First Name should complete a Preferred First Name Change Request within the Personal Information Tab of their Banner Account. The request will be reviewed by the Registrar in consultation with the Director of Diversity & Inclusion. Students who are denied a Preferred First Name request may appeal to the Vice President for Student Affairs & Enrollment Management.
The University of North Georgia is a gender diverse community and invites individuals to choose the restroom they find welcoming and safe. All gender restrooms can be found on the Blue Ridge, Dahlonega, Gainesville, and Oconee campuses.
Safe Zone is a LGBTQ+ sensitivity training program for faculty and staff. The individuals who have participated in the training are committed to being an understanding and non-judgmental listener for anyone who needs to discuss their experience. Look for this sign to find those who are Safe Zone trained.
MSA supports the identities and perspectives of our entire community to promote and foster inclusiveness for all students, faculty, and staff. Visit MSA's LGBTQ page to find campus, local, and national resources.
We are always seeking additional ways to support our students, faculty, and staff. Please contact the Title IX Office for any additional resources you encounter.
