College ought to be a time of discovery, exploration and self-expression within a community that understands, fosters and celebrates differences, diversity and individuality while promoting respect and understanding for all people. Acknowledging this truth, we, the students of Spring Hill College, have created a student organization to promote this vision of collegiate freedom, individuality and respect for all expression.
Too often, we have seen and felt the injustices of misunderstanding and hate. Too often, we have heard the deafening silence of those too afraid to speak out for themselves. Too often, we have witnessed the harm caused by the apathy of many to the plight of a few. For this reason that we, as students of Spring Hill College, recognizing the college’s need to foster a diverse student body and welcoming community and believing that such a community is not only possible but obligatory within the college’s teachings of Christian understanding and social justice, seek to engage, educate and promote understanding within Spring Hill’s community for all people, particularly members of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgendered, Queer and Questioning (LGBTQQA) community as well as their allies.
