Image one: E-book titled Trans in College: Transgender Students' Strategies for Navigating Campus Life and the Institutional Politics of Inclusion (2017) - synopsis: This book is addressed as much to trans students themselves – offering them a frame to understand the genders that mark them as different and to address the feelings brought on by the weight of that difference – as it is to faculty, student affairs professionals, and college administrators, opening up the implications for the classroom and the wider campus. This book not only remedies the paucity of literature on trans college students, but does so from a perspective of resiliency and agency. This is both a personal book that offers an account of the author's own trans identity and a deeply engaged study of trans collegians that reveals the complexities of trans identities, and how these students navigate the trans oppression present throughout society and their institutions, create community and resilience, and establish meaning and control in a world that assumes binary genders.
