QUEER PEERS

Below you will find a list of students, faculty, administration, and staff who are willing to be resources for members of the Dartmouth community. Feel free to contact any of these people if you have questions or need support (when folks refer to "blitz" they're talking about email). Prospective students and employees are encouraged to contact us as well.

If you represent a commercial or research endeavor (this includes current Dartmouth students) please contact Pam Misener, Assistant Dean of Student Life, for a more appropriate method of contacting members of the GLBTQA community at Dartmouth.

I'm extremely talkative and love meeting new people. Basic stats: I've been out for a while - 6 years now - ex-Muslim, African-American, generally identifying as queer or a dark shade of gay rather than lesbian. Email me at tig09@dartmouth.edu.

William D. Winkelman '09

Hey, I'm Will Winkelman, class of 2009. I'm from New York City (I know, what the hell am i doing in the middle of nowhere). I'm probably going to major in biology but we'll see how that goes. I'm training to be a Sexual Abuse Peer Advisor. I also work at the ceramics studio which I love, definitely give it a serious try sometime before you graduate (stop by if even if you're just visiting, see what it's all about, only campus building in Vermont so clearly has something going for it). Well anyway, definitely blitz me at William.Winkelman@Dartmouth.edu, if you wanna talk or have any questions about being gay, about Dartmouth in general, about life, about whatever. Love it here at Dartmouth and love meeting new people.

Hey everyone! I am male and queer identified, and I double major in Women and Gender Studies, as well as Religion. I especially focus on queer issues (LGBT and beyond) and feminism, including and especially issues impacting people of color. I am also interested in transgender issues. I am extremely enthusiastic about religion, from Buddhism and Hinduism, to the Judeo-Christian religions and other American religions. And oh gosh, so much more. I love discussing issues of race, gender, ethnicity, class, religion, politics (American and International), and food. I'm interested in the patently absurd, in every way that it manifests, in art, poetry, music, religion, and love. Feel free to blitz me at any time! Peace.

 

Alumni

Ryan L. Payne '06

Hey, I'm a Class of 2006, and majoring in Film and Televison modified with Art History. I love Dartmouth and helping out prospective or new students with any of their questions. Dartmouth's been a big leap for me coming from a ranch outside of Tulsa, Oklahoma, but I've enjoyed every minute of it. Because I've taken some time away from the college to do film work, I'll be graduating with the Class of 2007, so I'm pretty psyched that I'll get to spend another year here.

Dartmouth is hands-down the best college experience one could hope to have: World-class academics, down-to-earth students, incredible setting, and more recreation than you can imagine. The gay community here has went through some big revolutions during my time here, and it's great! More than ever, the campus is an accepting environment and people feel more comfortable to be themselves. Love to chat with you about my experiences here, and also about what you might expect being immersed in such a crazy place. Email me at RLP@Dartmouth.edu.

 

Michael S. Guzman '06

Hey hey. My name is Michael Guzman, an '06, and current treasurer of the GSA. I'm an HIV/AIDS Red Cross peer educator and a Government major. Please feel free to talk to me about anything. I always love to read a blitz from a new person. I'm originally from Danbury, CT, I'm hispanic, and I'm a member of the Dodecaphonics, the best a capella group on campus! My trademark is my keen and critical fashion sense, so you'll be sure to spot me on campus. he he. Well, contact me!

 

Nathan B. Cardin '05

Hey, I'm Nate Cardin, an '05 military brat most recently from Fort Walton Beach, Florida. I graduated in June with a major in chemistry and a minor in Spanish. I'm currently working on a PhD in organic chemistry at Stanford (and highly recommend sunny California). At Dartmouth, I worked as a UGA/tutor/TA/study group leader and was also a member of Casque & Gauntlet and COS. As a Catholic, I was a member of Aquinas House, so I'm familiar with the struggle between ones religion and identity. Feel free to drop me a blitz anytime...you never get too old for blitz. (: Take care and hope all's well.
