We wrote a letter to each member of the presidential search advisory committee asking that even though we do not have an anti-discrimination ordinance that includes sexual orientation, that this search we seek an individual who is gay friendly. A committee member made a presentation to the College of Education Administrative Council. A member of our committee met with leaders of groups on campus to discuss how they addressed issues of sexual orientation. We need strong support from the leadership on campus for domestic partner benefits. The domestic partner bills remain in the house and senate committees.
