commonGround is the LGBTQQIA organization on the University of Louisville's campus. We are open to individuals of all sexual orientations and gender identities. Our members have the right to anonymity and we respect confidentiality. We promote equality and diversity on and off campus and welcome all people to our meetings, events and gatherings. We have weekly meetings at UofL's Belknap campus and discuss everything from activism to politics to safer sex and more. Along with general meetings, we host several events throughout the year which bring community and campus support.

commonGround meets every Tuesday at 7:30pm

in the Student Activities Center, Room W303A
