Abstract

As a subculture, the LGBT community is characterized by its independence from mainstream culture (Ye, 2018). The existence of the LGBT community as a phenomenon has a long history. However, due to the influence of religious beliefs and mainstream culture, LGBT groups are consciously screened and marginalized in China (Tang & Sun, 2014). The topic of LGBT groups on campus has brought many obstacles to the existing higher education management in China (Qu, 2015). The purpose of this study is to understand the cognition and attitude of Chinese college students towards the LGBT community, understand the characteristics and rules of the LGBT community, and enhance the pertinence and scientific nature of the guidance and management of university leaders. In this paper, the researcher will report on the exploratory research to better understand the current attitudes of Chinese college students toward the LGBT community and highlight the responsibility of school leaders when dealing with people who identify with LGBT issues. The setting for this research will be Chinese universities. Therefore, all participants will be Chinese university students. The first data will be collected through interviews. This study aims to improve the educational environment for LGBT people in Chinese universities and explore the responsibilities that Chinese school leaders should assume.
