Genderism: Transgender Students, Binary Systems, and Higher Education

Tuesday, March 31, 2009 
8:45 AM - 10:00 AM 
Gaylord National, Chesapeake G, H & I

Presenters: Brent L. Bilodeau (Coordinator), T.J. Jourian

Based on the forthcoming book, Genderism: Transgender Students, Binary Systems, and Higher Education, this session explores a two year, dual campus study which resulted in positing a definition and characteristics of genderism. This systemic, binary oppression system permeated campus life and is examined in depth through the experiences of ten transgender students. Session includes a research-driven framework for understanding genderism, examination of its primary impact areas on campus, and implications for practitioners and scholars.
