Posted: Monday, September 20, 2010Faculty and Staff Discussion: Transgender Students in the Classroom and on Campus:
As more openly transgender students enroll in college, faculty and staff may have questions and concerns about how to interact with these students and meet their needs on campus. We will provide some background information about transgender students and the issues they commonly face on college campuses. We then will discuss ways to sensitively and effectively handle issues that may arise in one-on-one conversations, classroom settings, and other campus activities involving transgender students. This event will provide a safe space to ask questions and improve your skills in working with students who are transgendered. Facilitated by faculty from the Women’s Studies Program.
