 Introduction
Research properly conceived and administered is essential to both lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender (LGBT) people and to the advancement of inclusive policies, programs and practices in higher education. LGBT people have always been a part the academic tapestry and diversity of colleges and universities -- as students, staff, faculty, administrators, alumnae, and community volunteers. While there have been strides in understanding concerns relevant to LGBT people, it is essential that academia have continued quality research to better serve and address the emerging issues, trends, and developments impacting LGBT people within institutions of higher education.
