Hail Cougars! UH SGA Unanimously Passes Gender Bill

"The University of Houston is the Lone Star State's third largest university sizewise behind Texas and Texas A&M. I just received the word that on March 12, Josephine Tittsworth, Social Work Senator for the Student Government Association, at-Large Sen. Van Hua and English literature sophomore Christopher Busby introduced a bill that mandates that the University of Houston include the phrase 'gender identity and expression' in the university's nondiscrimination statement. The UH nondiscrimination statement already covers sexual orientation, but the bill sponsors wished to expand it to cover transgender students as well."
