Weiss, Associate Professor of Law and Society at Ramampo College:<br>
<br>
</tt></font><tt><font size="+1"><i><b>Transgender Constitutional
Rights: How Justice Kennedy Killed the Sex
Police</b></i><br>
<br>
Justice Kennedy wrote the opinion in the 2003 Supreme Court case of
<i>Lawrence v. Texas</i> that invalidated anti-gay laws. The opinion
seemed to
create a constitutional right of sexual freedom, which might be
extended to transgender freedom, but it's not exactly clear how. This
talk explains how this works.<br>
<br>
The talk will take place Friday April 17th at 2pm, West Lecture Hall in
Franklin Patterson Hall at Hampshire College.<br>
<br>
Dr. Weiss will also meet informally with interested students at the
Women's Center at Hampshire College on April 17th from
11:30am-12:45pm.
Students from the Five College community are welcome. Lunch will be
provided by Fresh Side. If you would like to attend, please RSVP to
