The website eCollegeFinder has released a list of the most LGBTQ-friendly schools in each state, and has deemed Emory to be the most-friendly in Georgia.

According to the website, Emory provides training on violence prevention and counseling and psychological services.

“In addition to individual attention, the school hosts events including the Emory Pride Drag Show,” the website says. “Since 2004, the show has brought both students and faculty to the stage to perform their hearts out.”
