It Gets Better ~ Glasgow University

Glasgow University Students' Representative Council (GUSRC) in partnership with Glasgow University Student Television (GUST) have collaborated to participate in the global It Gets Better Project on behalf of the University of Glasgow.

The It Gets Better Project began in 2010 as a way of to show young LGBTQ people that whilst their teenage years may be difficult, that things do get better and that their futures can be full of happiness, positivity and freedom.

The project has received endorsements and submissions from high level politicians, organisations and businesses around the world and now the University of Glasgow.

GUSRC and GUST invited University students and staff, including Principal Anton Muscatelli and Secretary of Court David Newall, to participate in a submission on behalf of the University in recent weeks, with the resulting video launched as part of GUSRC Health Week at Bobar on Monday 14th November 2011.

The project was lead by GUSRC Sexual Orientation Equality Office Drew McCusker and student Adam Smith. McCusker said; "The outpouring of support from Glasgow Uni students and staff for this project only goes to show that our University cares about students and young people. This is only part of the wider picture of inspiring and protecting future generations but we're proud to contribute to such an phenomenal project which fits in well with the ethos of our campus."
