New Direction at Towson University

As reported by Towson University's student newspaper The Towerlight at the beginning of this month:
The Center for Student Diversity has expanded its offerings to students by adding a director of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender student development.

Samuel Santos, who started two months ago, now serves as Towson's first director of LGBT development.
Such positions are quite rare. In fact, I believe Towson and UMD College Park are the only institutions within the University System of Maryland to have positions of this sort. The lack of such positions elsewhere is something to be considered, and challenged.
