MU students pass gender-identity referendum

Posted on April 13, 2009 by Karen Pojmann

The Missouri Students Association has adopted a referendum to protect the rights of transgender students at Mizzou.

Last week students voted in favor of adding “gender identity and expression” to the MSA’s non-discrimination clause. The referendum passed with 82 percent of the vote, representing 2,297 of 2,780 voting students.
