Key Programs

These celebrations at Dartmouth are connected to or reminiscent of some national and international days and months of recognition. Queer History Celebration is closely aligned with LGBTQIA+ History Month. Trans Week of Visibility on campus is closely aligned with Trans Day of Visibility, Trans Awareness Week (nationally celebrated Nov 14-20th), and Trans Day of Remembrance (Nov. 20th). Due to the academic calendar, Dartmouth celebrates Transgender Awareness week during October or early November.

We recognize and uplift the many identities that intersect with queerness and their coinciding celebrations, including but not limited to Latinx & Caribbean History Celebration and Indigenous Peoples' Month.

Nationally celebrated November 14 – 20, Transgender Awareness Week aims to raise the visibility of transgender and gender non-conforming people. The final day of Transgender Awareness Week is Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDOR), an annual observance on November 20 that honors the memory of those whose lives were lost in acts of anti-transgender violence. Due to the academic calendar, Dartmouth celebrates Transgender Awareness week during October or early November.

Each fall, we invite members of the LGBTQIA+ community across campus to join us at the Triangle House for food, fun, and community. It's a great opportunity to meet new people and learn about programs on campus.

Lavender Graduation is the closing event for PRIDE Month at Dartmouth and serves as a celebration and recognition of the contributions of current students to the Dartmouth LGBTQIA+ community. Graduating students are honored with rainbow tassels and have their accomplishments celebrated. The event takes place earlier in the spring term during Pride.
