W&M RESOURCES The purpose of the Lambda Alliance is to provide education to the community at large of William and Mary. The above includes peer counseling, awareness of gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender communities, and to protect and serve the GLBT students at the College, while establishing a support network of concerned and interested individuals, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity. William and Mary Gay and Lesbian Alumni The William and Mary Gay and Lesbian Alumni organization exists to provide links between William and Mary alumni and the William and Mary community of students, faculty and staff. We provide student support for student activities, through the Lambda Alliance; we provide educational support for gay, lesbian and other gender identity studies, through fund raising and direct participation; and we provide support for alumni through networking, social community and Homecoming events. The Counseling Center offers a range of free professional services to students wanting help with personal concerns. We work with psychological problems, relationship and family issues, academic and personal stress, and crisis situations. Students are initially seen by an individual counselor. Continuing services, if needed, may be offered in the form of individual, couple, family, or group meetings, depending on what best matches the student's need. We also provide consultation to friends, faculty, and parents concerned about a student in distress. Freshman/Transfer Orientation Resources List
