Other participating schools include Bluegrass Technical and Community College, Centre College, Eastern Kentucky University, Northern Kentucky University and the University of Louisville.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The purpose of this program is to virtually connect LGBTQ* students during this time when individuals are encouraged to be physically distant, but not to be socially or mentally distant,&#8221; according to UK\u2019s LGBTQ* Resources office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please email <a href=\"mailto:lgbtq@uky.edu\">lgbtq@uky.edu<\/a> if you have any
