LGBT Politicians Open Up

TheCrimson.com – By Esther I. Yi – Crimson Staff Writer

Five openly lesbian, gay, or transgendered politicians discussed the role that sexual orientation plays in their careers at a panel discussion in the Lowell JCR last night.

At the open forum – organized by the Harvard College Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender (LGBT) Political Coalition and co-sponsored by the Harvard BGLTSA and the Harvard College Democrats – most of the speakers agreed that sexual orientation should not define a politician.
