Queer Orientation


Queer Orientation (QO) is an annual series of LGBTQ2S-focused programming across all three campuses of U of T during the last week of September. Organized by U of T’s Office of Sexual and Gender Diversity, QO is an opportunity for new and returning students, staff, faculty and librarians to make connections, engage in activities and have discussions related to LGBTQ2S+ communities.

QO is happening virtually (with a few in-person events) from Monday, September 20 to Friday September 24, 2021… with a few events a little later. This year’s QO features game nights, drag make-up tutorials, informational sessions, ice skating, escape rooms, and more! – be sure to read the full schedule because there is definitely something for everyone. Get ready to learn more about and celebrate our LGBTQ2S+ communities through 25 different events, organized by 24 campus partners!
