Massasoit Pride: Campus Resources

On Campus Resources

Massasoit Gender Sexuality Alliance

The GSA is a vibrant collective of students from all walks of life who affirm, celebrate, and empower Massasoit’s LGBTQIA+ community. We welcome all folks regardless of sexual orientation, identity, or gender expression. Yes, you too, allies! During the summer semester, we are continuing our weekly Zoom meetings on Wednesdays at noon. If you would like to join us or request more information, please contact gsa@massasoit.edu or join our group on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/MassasoitGSA/

LGBTQIA+ Equity Team

The LGBTQIA+ Equity Team was established in Spring 2020 to further support the LGBTQIA+ community on campus. For questions, or more information regarding services and resources please contact Kristine Bohmer at kfortinib@massasoit.mass.edu.

Massasoit Pride Mentorship Program

In late 2021, Massasoit officially launched the Massasoit Pride Mentorship Program. The purpose of this program is to foster mentoring relationships between LGBTQIA+ identifying students and faculty/staff at Massasoit Community College. Students are required to be enrolled in courses to participate. During the mentoring cycle, students and mentors will have meetings on a regular basis. If you are interested in participating in the Massasoit Pride Mentorship Program, please complete the Mentee Application.

Dean of Students Office

Student care is the top priority of Massasoit‘s Dean of Students office. The Dean of Student’s office is here to assist students with information and referrals to campus resources. We strive to help students in the resolution of problems or concerns, and promote initiatives that address students’ care, needs, and success. We also serve as a resource for families, faculty, and staff in supporting student success at Massasoit.

Preferred Name Taskforce

Members of the Massasoit community should feel empowered to be called by a preferred/chosen first name. By allowing individuals to use a preferred/chosen first name, the College hopes to provide an inclusive, safe, and nondiscriminatory educational experience. Reasons for name changes may include transgender or gender nonconforming identities, international members or other members who wish to adopt an English language name, individuals known by names that are different from their legal names, or individuals who have popular names who wish to use a different one. Equally important, no student, faculty, or staff member should feel pressure to take on an Anglicized/Americanized first name for acceptance or the convenience of others.
