Goucher’s Involvement in State LGBT Politics May 7, 2012

Gita Deane, a faculty member at Goucher College, has fought with the ACLU to legalize gay marriage in Maryland. We had a wonderful conversation about Prism, the Queer student union on campus, and the communication issues existing between the organization and herself. Although she spoke at Rainbow Reception, she is usually unaware of petitions and activities around campus.

After years of fighting for the right to call her partner, Lisa Polyak, her wife, Deane, Polyak, and their two children went to Washington, DC for the ceremony and are now happily married.

Hopefully, the future for Maryland.
