Faculty Senate passes transgender rights resolution

UW-Madison’s Faculty Senate unanimously approved a statement Monday in support of transgender rights for students, faculty and staff on campus. The resolution comes after an unnamed professor recruit turned down a job offer from UW-Madison due to the political climate on campus and two transgender former UW-Madison faculty sued the state after being refused gender reassignment medical treatment under their state employee insurance coverage. It states that members of UW-Madison’s transgender community have the right to pursue an education or career on campus with “safety and dignity” as well as receive the same “benefits, privileges and protections” that the rest of the UW-Madison community enjoys.
