Nominate Colleagues for the 2017 Consortium AwardsColleagues, The community of LGBTQ higher education resource professionals is comprised of a vast array of dedicated individuals committed to enriching the lives and campus climates for LGBTQ people. It is only appropriate that we are able to recognize the durable and sustainable impact that we all have at our institutions. Last year, the Consortium community recognized Dr. Debbie Bazarsky, Dr. Cara Miller, and Nicholas Shigeru Sakurai for their achievements in the work. These awards, presented at Creating Change in Chicago, continue to mark milestones for the Consortium in its goal to recognize those who have, and who continue to, create change. This year we are excited to invite nominations for the following three awards: Promising New Professional This award recognizes a professional with less than five years of experience and the unique role new professionals play in supporting students and innovating campus programs while elevating the work of a campus LGBT Center. The award recognizes a new professional who is doing outstanding service, demonstrates innovative or creative effort within the profession, and shows significant promise for leadership on the field. Exemplary nominees for this award exhibit:
