A small group of students talked in the Women's Center on Wednesday about issues that transgender people face.

Erin Thorn, '09, and Sara Santos, '13, spoke about what they learned at a conference on Oct. 24 at the University of Vermont called "Translating Identity," which centered on the challenges that transgender people face.

Santos said she went to the conference because she was curious about the transgender culture.
