Every year the Chancellor's Advisory Committee on GLBT Issues honors outstanding educators and advocates for the LGBTQ community. This year, the committee is pleased to honor the following award recipients:

Associate Professor sj Miller is this year's winner of the Joanne Arnold Courage and Commitment Award.
