  • "Benjamin Franklin Institute of Technology changed my life.  I began at the age of 22 and did not see any hopes of graduating with a degree.  But with the personalized attention and faculty who really care, I now have a Computer Engineering Degree and work at IBM, something I always dreamed of doing.  The Office of Career Services facilitated this internship and it has had such an impact in my life.  If it had not been for BFIT, my quality of life would not be what it is today.  Thank you BFIT!"

College Statement Concerning the GLBT Task Force

 

Benjamin Franklin Institute of Technology has always been proud of its diverse population and we will continue to support all aspects of individual diversity. The creation of the GLBT task force is an extension of that commitment to celebrate our diverse campus.

The GLBT Task Force will be working in a variety of ways to support the needs of our GLBT students and their allies.  We will create specific GLBT Safe Zone areas on campus, provide information on GLBT issues, host a series of community workshops and trainings, and support national events.

  • Marvin Loiseau (Admissions), co-chair
  • Kristina Barger (Student Affairs), co-chair
