UW MADISON ADDRESSES TRANSGENDER RIGHTS

UW MADISON ADDRESSES TRANSGENDER RIGHTS

The UW-Madison chancellor is signing a letter that protects transgender rights and is being sent to Education Secretary Betsy DeVos.  Rebecca Blank co-signed the letter urging DeVos to oppose a policy change that would define gender based on male or female biology. 

The letter was also signed by Princeton University President Christopher Eisgruber and Rutgers University President Robert Barchi.  The move comes a few weeks after President Trump’s administration said they were considering restricting the definition of gender to be determined by genitals at birth.
