VIEWPOINT: Support transgender speaker

Just last week I invited local filmmaker, Ashley Altadonna, to Marquette to share some of her short films that have been seen in numerous film festivals.

Her films look at the concept of gender and chronicle her own experiences living as a transgendered woman.

Little did I know that when I submitted a request for approval of this event, the event would be a bit too diverse for Student Affairs to sponsor and I was told to find an academic department to sponsor the event.
