The University's first Trans Week of Celebration begins today and will include workshops, films and gatherings focusing on those who self-identify as transgender and genderqueer, and educating those in the non-trans community, the LGBTQA said.

"We wanted to make sure we were talking about not only trans/genderqueer issues, but also the intersection of race, class, sexuality, ability and citizenship," said Jet Eccleston, a University senior and member of the planning committee for the event.

"Anyone who attempts to play the 'real transsexual' card should be summarily dismissed, as they are merely engaging in name calling rather than serious debate."
