About UNITY

A very positive article in the September 20, 2000, issue of the Pacer Times spoke about the needs of gay and lesbian students on our USC Aiken campus.  A group of faculty and staff then began to meet to form a support group for GLBTSQ students, faculty, and staff.  The first UNITY meeting was held in February of 2001, and since that time, the organization has steadily grown and matured in its educational outreach.

UNITY has been a great encouragement for dozens of students, staff, and faculty.  It exists as a support group for the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgendered, Straight, and Questioning students, faculty, and staff of USC Aiken.  In addition, UNITY educates and increases awareness relating to the needs of the GBLTSQ people by conducting scheduled meetings and a variety of other social events.
