Here's a glossary of terms that some students have reviewed for Friday's Day of Silence:
• Transgender. This term loosely refers to people who do not identify with the gender roles assigned to them by society based on their biological sex. Transgender is also used as an umbrella term for all those who do not conform to "traditional" notions of gender expression and include people who identify as transsexual, or as drag queens or kings.
Ahhh, the things kids learn these days... .
