Pride Scholars Learning Cohort
The Pride Scholars Learning Cohort (PSLC) is an academic community taught through a queer lens. Students are enrolled with the same group of students throughout different courses for your first year, allowing you to create safe spaces to explore your academic and personal goals. As a cohort, the program discusses overlapping themes and topics as we enjoy fun activities planned to strengthen our learning cohort.
