Lindsay Nicholson, Ally Graduate Assistant, Dean of Students office Graduate Student, College Student Personnel INVOLVEMENTS AT OU: Student Personnel Association (SPA), University Hearing Board WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO BE AN ALLY? I think it is important to be an Ally so that I am able to support and be a "safe" person for someone who is trying to come out. I think of it as a way of helping others and making the world a safer place for everyone. WHY ARE YOU “PROUD”? WHAT ARE YOU MOST “PROUD” OF? I am proud to know several wonderful out people who have taught me so much and I continue to learn from every day. THOUGHTS FOR NON-LGBT PEOPLE ABOUT LGBT PEOPLE AND CONCERNS: Don't be afraid to get as much information you can about LGBT people and about being an Ally. Knowledge is power!
