LGBTQIQ Safe Zone
Agnes Scott’s Safe Zone program provides allies and resources for the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Intersex and Questioning (LGBTQIQ) campus community.
Scottie Safe Zone Symbol
Faculty and staff who have completed Safe Zone training post a Safe Zone symbol in their offices, designating themselves as allies for LGBTQIQ students and colleagues. Safe Zone-certified employees are committed to providing our LGBTQIQ community with non-judgmental assistance and acceptance.
The Safe Zone Committee, a subcommittee of the President’s Committee on Community Diversity, comprises the following individuals:
- Kijua Sanders-McMurtry, Associate Dean of Students
- Holly Byrd, Director of Personal Counseling
- Rafael Ocasio, Charles A. Dana Professor of Spanish
The absence of a Safe Zone symbol should not be interpreted in any way. The college's values, as well as nondiscrimination and harassment policies, clearly articulate the college's expectations that all community members will be treated fairly.
