Queer Student Association (QSA)
The Queer Student Association (QSA) represents the lesbian, gay,
bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning and intersex (LGBTQQI)
community at GSAPP and addresses issues of sexual and gender identity
and practice that are relevant to clinical practice. The group has been
active since the 1990s. QSA hosts viewings and discussions of
movies about queer history, transgender identity and managing queer and
religious identities. The group maintains a queer presence during
GSAPP events including the annual Diversity Recruitment Night and
meetings of the Student Association and the Dean's Multicultural
Advisory Committee. QSA members have provided consultation to student
clinicians on LGBTQQI cases. Finally, QSA organizes social
activities for its members and other interested GSAPPers. QSA seeks
ways to expand its function as a resource for the GSAPP community. Examples include creating print or internet resources guides, inviting
guest speakers, and interfacing with other LGBTQQI organizations in
central New Jersey.
