More Than an Assemblage of Queers
What must inform the creation of opportunities for queer residential living are
ideas about community engagement, including support necessary for responses to bias
incidents and more capacious ideas about community building beyond traditional programs.
We recommend having intentional conversations about how residential spaces
build or foster communities and excavating embedded assumptions about communities
that perpetuate dominant cultures and identities. The realization that students
who desire to be within an LGBTQ+ LLP may lack interest in unpacking queerness
caused us to question what unconscious and unquestioned notions about community
building and affinity go uninterrupted in residential life and housing departments.
We suspect that interrogations about community might help unsettle attachments to
particular modes of being and doing in LLPs and open up liberatory possibilities for all
residents. The experiences documented in these scholarly personal narratives should
also make us question the salience of identity and challenge expectations of who wants
to live (and learn) in queer spaces.
Finally, these SPNs should inspire questions about the function of LGBTQ+ LLPs,
whether they exist within an LLP-specific office, residential life, or some other institutional
structure. Those who seek to develop queer and trans residential spaces on
campus must consider what institutional structures, if any, are available to support
those working within and adjacent to the space. The creation of the LGBTQ+ LLP is a
first step, but its sustainability depends on a commitment of institutional resources.
How does institutional leadership imagine who is responsible for its support, care,
and resilience? What does supervision look like for those tasked with leading these
spaces, and how are student voices involved in how the space needs to exist for each
year? We believe that LGBTQ+ LLPs require institutional commitments to provide
support that resists assumptions about queerness and community and draws attention
to unexamined hetero- and cisnormative approaches that fail to foster liberatory
thinking for us all. 
