As a campus characterized by empathy, inclusivity, respect, personal growth, integrity, and a collaborative spirit, our strength is in unifying diverse identities that give value and a rich context to our lived experiences. We celebrate and recognize our LGBTQIA+ community members, and members throughout the world, for their contributions and enrichment to humanity.
June is LGBTQIA+ Pride Month, initially established in the United States to commemorate the Stonewall Riots of
June 1969, events that served as a catalyst for a movement that continues today.

Creating a Welcoming and Supportive Community
SUNY Cobleskill is committed to creating a community of practice that fosters the exchange of ideas in a respectful and non-threatening way, and creates better understanding, awareness, and opportunities to learn from each other.
We reject bigotry, hateful speech, oppression, harassment, bullying, and all forms of injustice.
We believe in the inherent dignity of each person. We value fairness, civility, and kindness. We listen to, encourage, and support each other. We seek to instill in our faculty, staff and students a lifelong appreciation for the value of diversity, equity, and inclusion so that we can create a better world.
