My class is currently in its 10th Reunion. In light of the comments made by President Walker, I will not be making a Reunion gift this year.

As a queer trans woman and an ordained minister of the gospel of Christ, I am proud to sign along with others who have rejected the cheap hate filled white christo-fascism Lee university has peddled for ages and called "good news".

Jesus calls us to love, not judge. Love will always win.

No one person, or group, or institution has any right to put conditions on the validity of human existence. You are valid just because you exist. You don’t have to be hetero or a Christian or anything to be valid. Love is just that- it’s love. Your sexuality is valid. Your love is valid. You are valid.

As a Lee Univ. alum and a mental health counselor it is imperative that a school for higher education protect the mental health of its students by creating a safe environment for students to explore and grow and not be condemned for behaviors due to religious beliefs of the school organziational background. Lee Univ is first a foremost a University there to educate, not impose religious doctrine.

Honored to sign this and to be an ally to my LGBTQIA+ friends who I met while attending Lee. I am forever changed by these relationships during my time as a student.

I am ashamed of my alma mater for quite a few reasons, and this is at the top of my list. I hope leadership will bring an end to this hate.

I am a chaplain and I fully support full inclusion of LGBTQIA students. They are children of God and are fearfully and wonderfully made to be who they are and to love who they love. I believe to not accept them is to not accept a very beautiful part of God's self.

It saddens me to see the institution undermine the legitimacy of its educational purpose by telling their LGBTQ students that they don't belong at Lee.
