SAC is the only community college in the state to be included in the 校园骄傲指数. It is one of only 13 colleges in Texas to receive the ranking and one of only two in 圣安东尼奥 make the list, the other being Trinity University.

According to Jacob 援助an-Martinez, director of the Office of Student Life, SAC was required to submit documentation and assessment of its LGBTQ friendly policies to be considered for the Index. SAC received high marks for developing several programs and initiatives. 这些包括:

  • 维护一个 LGBT资源页面 on the SAC website that will stay active and be updated all year.
  • Expanding an advisory group for all LGBTQ Issues.
  • Creating a program for LGBT Staff/Faculty mentors for LGBTQ students

The 学校的骄傲 index is owned and operated by 学校的骄傲, the leading national nonprofit organization for student leaders and campus groups working to create safer, more LGBTQ-friendly learning environments at colleges and universities. The index is supported under the 学校的骄傲 Q Research Institute for Higher Education as well as benefits from strategic partnerships with professional organizations in higher education and related LGBTQ nonprofit organizations.
