Records of the Pride Resource Center

In the fall of 1997, the Associated Students of Colorado State University (ASCSU) and the Student Organization for Gays, Lesbians, Bisexuals (SOGLB) proposed that the university establish a GLBT Student Services office. The Office of the Vice President of Student Affairs, working closely with these student organizations and with the support of private donors, created the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Student Services of Colorado State University. The GLBT Student Services officially opened on August 1, 1998. In 2009, the organization was renamed the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender Resource Center and in 2013 the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Questioning, and Ally (GLBTQQA) Resource Center. In 2016, the office became the Pride Resource Center.

The mission of the Pride Resource Center is to support and affirm the diverse identities and lives of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning, Two-Spirit, and same gender loving people as individuals and as groups, especially as students, staff, and faculty of CSU and their families, friends, and allies. Cultivating a safe space, educational outreach, advocacy, visibility of LGBTQ issues, information and referral, and academic and leadership opportunities are the objectives of the Resource Center.
