Ohio LGBTQ History Revealed: 青年涩导航 SURE Project Leads to Niche Discovery
Alex Moir is one of many students who participated in the Summer Undergraduate Research Experience (SURE) program in 2023.

The transition can even be more difficult for LGBTQ+ students, particularly for those who have recently "come out." Ken Ditlevson, director of 青年涩导航's LGBTQ+ Center, talks about the many resources available at Kent to support them.
