Harvard has appointed Vanidy “Van” Bailey as the College’s first permanent director of bisexual, gay, lesbian, transgender, and queer student life. Bailey, the assistant director for education at the University of California, San Diego, will assume the new position on July 16.
Last April, Dean of the College Evelynn M. Hammonds announced her intention to hire a full-time staffer dedicated to serving the BGLTQ community on campus.
In a statement to students, Hammonds said that the decision was based on recommendations made by the BGLTQ Working Group, which she created in October 2010 to evaluate BGLTQ experiences and needs at the College.
In an email, Bailey expressed excitement for connecting with BGLTQ students and staff at Harvard and said that the first task for the new director would be setting goals for the upcoming academic year.
At UCSD, Bailey oversees programs at the BGLTQ Resource Center and advises student organizations.
In September 2011, the College announced that Lisa “Lee” Forest of Bridgewater State University in Massachusetts would be its first director of BGLTQ student life. However, one month later, Forest turned down the position at Harvard for “personal and professional reasons.”

How is Q mayo made? Oh never mind.
LOL, That might have been easier on the ears.
LOL! It’s a small brand name down here... I got some for a real good price once at Piggly Wiggly. Our PW closed, so haven’t gotten more in several years.
Anyway, it’s the only Q food I could think of and it doesn’t stand for queer!
What kind of education are you going to get at an institution run by imbeciles?
Seriously.
Freepers need to read David Horowitz on this stuff.
It is much much worse than you can imagine.
Whoo boy, do an image search of Vanidy Baily and you'll see why.
Must be something in the water at Harvard?
It was broken before Harvard ever saw it.
