In the latest issue of Baltimore OUTloud, College of Public Affairs Academic Adviser Kristen Tull offers perspective on coming out and higher education. “National Coming Out Day is recognized at many universities across Maryland and the country,” said Tull. “Administrators, faculty, and staff can and should play an integral role in the support of this day. Becoming a mentor and a role model is a good first step.”

Tull’s piece is the college’s second contribution to Baltimore OUTloud‘s new feature column called “Out on Campus,” dedicated to higher education and the LGBTQ experience. Earlier this month, Dean Roger Hartley kicked off the new column with a piece about public service and why it matters now more than ever.
