Navigating University Bureaucracy For Social Change: Transgender & Gender-Nonconforming Students, Kate Hoffman
Navigating University Bureaucracy For Social Change: Transgender & Gender-Nonconforming Students, Kate Hoffman
Senior Theses
In large university structures, bureaucracy serves to provide academic support and foster student success. Additionally, some argue that with the increasing view of universities as businesses, bureaucracy is ever-growing to serve as the ‘customer support’ for their students.

Sanberg’s book Lean In is especially informative about changing beliefs about career orientation for both men and women to what she calls a belief in sustainable and fulfilling positions. Another valuable resource for faculty concerned about these issues is Creating …
