10 Years of Open Windows at the LGBTQ Resource Center
Problem:
Georgetown Magazine wanted to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of the LGBTQ Resource Center at Georgetown, while acknowledging a complex history.
Action:
I interviewed students, staff, and faculty from a wide range of gender identities and sexualities, to gain diverse perspectives on the impacts of the LBGTQ Resource Center.
I spoke with dozens of LGBTQ+ alumni from different periods of Georgetown’s history, with varying perspectives on the degree of progress made over time, to get a longitudinal picture of Georgetown’s history with LGBTQ+ rights.
I worked with our design team to find archival photos from student protests and celebrations on the road to formal university support.
Result:
Every stakeholder involved said that the school’s history was accurately portrayed in the published feature article. One alumnus told Georgetown Magazine that was inspired by the article to make a gift to the LGBTQ Resource Center.
