Everyone in academia needs to accept this reality and help prepare its most vulnerable members for the alternatives.

What is the census?

The Queer the Census campaign isn’t about the “interesting question” of how many LGBT people there are in the United States. It’s about understanding the inequalities that LGBT people face and where they live, in order to meet their needs.

Don't queer the census

Recently, Brenda Jin ’10 and Johannes Muenzel ’11 wrote a column exhorting Princetonians to “queer the census” by placing a pink sticker on their envelopes when returning their census forms.
