The Vice-Chancellor rode on this year’s VIP float.
Speaking ahead of the parade, Debra Humphris, who is the UK’s first openly gay female Vice-Chancellor, said: “It is fantastic honour to be asked to be part of this year’s Pride parade. The University of Brighton is a diverse and vibrant place to study, reflecting the character of its home city.
“As well as organising this wonderful event Pride does great work in supporting the LGBT community and I hope that the University can forge closer links in the coming years.”
