A friend of mine posted this on his FB, passing it along here: http://leiterreports.typepad.com/blog/2011/05/baptist-school-in-oklahoma-openly-discriminates-against-trans-gendered-faculty-member-in-tenure-deci.html

(that link will lead you to links to both the petition and the article)

A professor in Oklahoma is being terminated effective May 31, 2011, because her transgender status "offends" the Baptist President. It is my understanding the school is public, not religiously affiliated, and the President and possibly Vice-President are forcing her to quite. The tenure board has all highly recommended her for tenure and she is highly commended and recognized for her teaching.
