Meeting Discusses Issues Surrounding Red Cross Affiliation, Melanie Morin

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

A General Student Senate resolution passed last April that encourages student organizations not to associate with the American Red Cross because of accusations of gay discrimination which have caused concern over campus blood drives. The controversy stems from a Food and Drug Administration policy originating in 1983. The policy prohibits all men who have ever had sex with any other man since 1977 from donating blood. Since this time, ·technology has reduced the risk of contracting HIV through blood donations to about one unit per two million donations, according to the Red Cross Web site.

Don't Listen To Hartwell, Charlie Brickham Apr 2005

Don't Listen To Hartwell, Charlie Brickham

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

In Mike Hartwell's article, "A sex change won't do you good," [The Maine Campus, April 7] Hartwell attempts to establish some unjustified claims. Sexual Reassignment Surgery isn't intended to "alter one's mindset," but to align the appropriate body type with the existing mind.


Having A Change Of Hartwell, Claire Folsom Apr 2005

Having A Change Of Hartwell, Claire Folsom

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

I have recently become aware of an article published in the April 7th issue of The Maine Campus. In it, the author, Mike Hartwell, makes several incorrect assumptions. This is understandable, as he never consulted me prior to writing or publishing the article. Given this, I would like to take a few moments to set the record straight.

A Sex Change Won't Do You Good: Gender Reassignment Surgery Fails To Alter One's Mindset, Mike Hartwell Apr 2005

A Sex Change Won't Do You Good: Gender Reassignment Surgery Fails To Alter One's Mindset, Mike Hartwell

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

For those of you out of the loop, last month a University of Maine student accepted a Disney scholarship but ran into housing problems when "she" informed them that she was undergoing a sex-change operation. Disney said the student, known as Claire, couldn't room with a male or female in its housing facilities, but gave her the option to pay more money and to live alone. However, she couldn't afford this. In January, a local benefit concert raised over $1,200 for Claire's room and board.


Learn To Respect, Celebrate Differences, Aaron Skilling Apr 2005

Learn To Respect, Celebrate Differences, Aaron Skilling

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

What is this Pride Week crap about anyhow? Straight people don't have a pride week. I began thinking about this question, but then I remembered, it is OK to be different. That is what makes this world interesting, right? Pride Week is a time when the people of the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community band together to celebrate their differences.

A Warm Welcome For Boylan, The Maine Campus Feb 2005

A Warm Welcome For Boylan, The Maine Campus

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

It's not often that the word "tolerance" is thought of in conjunction with college students. As accepting as a college campus can be, there still exists a small but vocal group that often sounds out with a collective voice that is louder than the competing voice of reason. It's ironic that an institution harboring so much diversity can be a center for intolerance and the perpetuation of stereotypes of bigotry.

Audience Crams To See Transgendered Author, Diana Mcelwain

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

It was standing room only at Memorial Union's Bangor Room then transgendered [sic] author Jennifer Finney Boylan came to speak about her experienced and read from her book: "She's Not There." Boylan is no stranger to the University of Maine. She spoke in the same room last year, and has visited Human Sexuality classes.
