Queer Students Community Centre (QSCC)

The Queer Students Community Centre (QSCC) is a service of the McMaster Students Union. We provide a contact point for McMaster students that may identify as gay, lesbian, bisexual, trans, or queer, and their allies. We offer educational programming and access to resources of interest to the LGBTQ community. As advocates for gender & sexual diversity, the QSCC’s mandate upholds that queer students are entitled to a safe and supportive campus, absent of homophobia and transphobia, where the expression of one’s gender & sexual identity is welcomed and respected.

The Centre is a 'for-students-by-students' service provided by the MSU that aims to challenge problematic social attitudes and norms, patriarchy and sexism, heterosexism, homo/trans/bi/lesbophobia and the like, at the systemic level. It is naive to think that the kinds of discrimination that the QSCC aims to erase are no longer an issue on campus or in society at large.

The QSCC Presents Mac Pride! Every year, the Queer Students Community Centre, a service of your McMaster Students Union, presents MacPride Week, an opportunity to celebrate and support gender and sexual minorities on campus. This year, we hope to continue this tradition by hosting a week filled with events, varying from educational to extravagant!
