UC Hosts Webinar on Laws That Apply to Colleges and Universities Regarding Transgender Students on Feb. 10
The workplace and college life can present challenges for transgender students and staff. Even in the more welcoming environment often associated with higher education, certain situations can present significant legal, human and ethical dilemmas for the school.
University of Cincinnatis Campus Services, Chief Diversity Officer and the LGBTQ Center are partnering to share a webinar, Transgender Students in College: Navigating Requirements, Accommodations and Avoiding Litigation that will present a clear understanding of the laws that apply to them regarding transgender students as well as the potential impact of executive actions and court decisions.

Following the webinar will be a 30-minute question and answer period and comments from representatives at UC.
Jessica Gabel, associate professor of law at Georgia State University College of Law will discuss the necessary steps colleges and universities should take to ensure they deal with legal and practical issues, develop appropriate policies and procedures, provide a safe learning environment, handle discipline issues and limit liability for the school, its administrators and staff.
The hope is that representatives from every area of the university will attend to receive this important information.
