Abstract

Despite the increase of studies done on trans college students and an increase in LGBT Centers on college campuses, college campuses are still failing to adequately meet the needs of their trans students. Furthermore, the ongoing effects of racism in queer and trans spaces remain a phenomenon in urgent need of redress. This study uses queer of color critique to examine the specific ways trans students of color (TSOC) use the internet as a way to explore notions of self as well as navigate the pernicious material realities of campus life.
