Safe Zones

Rowan University is committed to building an inclusive and welcoming environment for all students and employees. The Safe Zone program is designed to specifically support the gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and ally community. Safe zones serve as a visual representation to all that the person or office displaying the symbol is understanding, supportive, and a resource for GLBT identifying people and allies seeking help, advice, or just someone they can talk to. The symbol also means that homophobic and heterosexist comments and actions will not be tolerated in the space and will be addressed in an educational manner.

It is our hope that the entire Rowan University campus and community is a safe zone for all employees and students to express the many dimensions and facets of their identity. The safe zone symbols reflect that the individual displaying the symbol has taken the time to attend a seminar to learn and discuss ways to be supportive of the GLBT community.
