In recognition of Temple's sixth annual National Coming Out Week celebration, meet Morgen Snowadzky, College of Liberal Arts, Class of 2016, recipient of Temple's MarcDavid LGBTQ Scholarship Award. The scholarship was created in 2012 to recognize a student’s efforts to further the inclusion of the LGBTQIA community at Temple.

"In high school, I was going to go into English," said the women's studies major. "Once I got into figuring out my sexuality in high school, it made sense to me to look at everything through a gender and sexuality lens."

Of the scholarship, Snowadzky said, "The voice that having this community of support gives me will be important for advocating for the expansion of resources [for the LGBTQIA community] that has become my mission."
