Washington, DC – This Thursday, Campus Pride joins Campus Progress and the U.S. Congressional LGBT Equality Caucus in a briefing to share the outcomes of a ground-breaking new report, "The 2010 State of Higher Education for LGBT People," to be released publically this week.

The report, authored by Campus Pride’s Q Research Institute for Higher Education (Rankin, Blumenfeld, Weber & Frazer), gathers data on the experiences of over 5,000 respondents, uncovering the persistent harassment and discrimination against lesbian, gay, bisexual and queer (LGBQ) students, faculty, and staff on college campuses across the United States, and pointing to the need for more inclusive campus policies, programs and practices. At the briefing, a panel of academics, national leaders and students will discuss the findings of the report and offer national policy solutions to address these critical findings.
