LavGrad is a space for LGBTQ+ and ally graduate students to meet, engage and support each other while promoting queer-inclusive initiatives across Clemson’s campus. We also collaborate with and mentor undergraduate students, clubs and organizations and support each other as we transition to being queer in Clemson.
Queer in Life Sciences
Queer in Life Sciences is a club for LGBTQIA+ individuals within the College of Agriculture, Forestry, and Life Sciences. The biggest goal of the organization is to make an accepting and loving space for queer CAFLS students, and to let people know they are not alone in their major. As a largely social community, our club centers on fun meetings for people to relax and unwind with supportive friends. As a bonus, QILS also brings in guest speakers who have a career/ study CAFLS topics and identify on the LGBTQIA+ spectrum. QILS is about connection and community.
