Our Mission Statement
The mission of the Pride Pacific Alumni Club is to develop an alumni network that supports current students and improves the campus climate for future generations by advocating on behalf of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer issues. The Club also ensures that all LGBTQ and allied alumni have a meaningful connection to Pacific and an organized means by which to promote the University's commitment to an inclusive and respectful community.
