“…Instructors from a variety of disciplines, including art (Dittman and Meecham 2006), history (Reis 2004), literature (Abbott 2009), psychology (Case et al 2009), sociology (Berkowitz, Manohar, and Tinkler 2010;Wentling et al 2008), and sexuality/gender (Drabinski 2011;Preston 2011), have incorporated transgender-related content into curricula.
