The View from Graduate School

Contributors to this special issue propose trans studies from the perspective of PhD students and a few of their faculty collaborators. The authors pull from the transformative experiences that they as teachers have had in teaching graduate seminars, where they learned from their students how to teach trans studies now that the field is too big to mount a conservative “survey.” Dedicated to graduate student articulations of the boldest plan possible for the field they are already building, this issue offers an undisciplined yet paradoxically common project of critical trans study.
