The Womens Center
The mission of the Anna Howard Shaw Women’s Center is to offer social, cultural, and political programming with the purpose of honoring and facilitating diversity and equality, while promoting humanity and respectfulness for all.  Women’s Center programs seek to educate the Albion Community about confronting issues and actions of oppression and marginalization that can serve as barriers to the development, dignity, and freedom of all people.  The Women’s Center is about supporting people to feel free to be who they are.  

Intercultural Affairs
Albion College is committed to the development of a diverse and pluralistic living and learning community. In direct support of this College-wide aim, the Office of Intercultural Affairs, located in the Ferguson Building, works in cooperation with the campus and greater community to heighten awareness, foster diversity, and create partnerships in order that we can live and work effectively in this changing world and combat continued injustices of sexism, racism and ethnocentrism.

Counseling Services
A core component of our mission is the promotion and affirmation of diversity in its broadest sense. We recognize that a diverse community enriches our campus and enhances opportunities for human understanding, both of which contribute to the learning environment for all. CS has a strong commitment to meeting the needs of diverse people. In all clinical, assessment, training, psychiatric, program, and outreach services we strive to create an environment where all people feel welcome and respected. As a staff, we attempt to facilitate mutual respect and understanding among people of diverse racial, ethnic, and national backgrounds, gender, sexual/affectional orientations, mental and physical abilities, languages, classes, ages, religion/spiritual beliefs, socioeconomic background as well as other types of diversity. We strive to nurture environments where similarities and differences among people are recognized, respects, and honored

These sources are prepared to handle situations with LGBT students. If you are comfortable enough, it is also an option to approach a professor who you feel comfortable with. If you don't know any professors who are supportive of the LGBT community, just look for the "oppose homophobia" fliers around campus.
