James Vincent Huff walked the halls of his high school just like so many other students, hoping that after graduation things would be different.

A little more than two years later, James says finally feels like he fits in.

James, 20, is a typical college sophomore: he makes good grades, hangs out with his friends and spends time with his girlfriend.

Each day he makes the commute from Nashville to Murfreesboro for work, because he says that MTSU makes him feel like he belongs.

James is transgender, a term describing an individual who feels that the gender assigned to them at birth is not correct or a complete description of what gender they truly are.
