Queen's Positive Space
The Queen's Positive Space Program has been in operation at Queen's since
1999. The Positive Space sticker on an office door, workspace, or living
space identifies the occupant as celebrating sexual and gender diversity and
being supportive of these communities. All members of the Queen's
community--staff, faculty, teaching assistants, residents, administrators,
graduate and undergraduate students are invited to participate.

OPIRG Positive Space Award
In March, 2009, the Positive Space program celebrated its tenth anniversary
at Queen's by launching an annual award to a full-time Queen's University
undergraduate or graduate student who has demonstrated leadership in the
Queen's and/or Kingston community in promoting the recognition and
celebration of sexual and gender diversity. The Award carries a $500
honorarium as well as a public acknowledgment of achievement during Queen's
Pride Week. Administrative support for the award is provided by the Ontario
Public Interest Research Group (OPIRG).
