We believe all people have the right to freely participate in recreation, fitness, and sport, and benefit from the wellness it brings. As the first University to be a signatory to the ACON’s Pride in Sport Program, we are currently working to implement inclusive practices to ensure the safe and equal inclusion of LGBTQIA+ identifying people.
