Transgender student says CPCC security harassed her

[neeksgeek]

I rarely post here on DU or online in general, but I had to put this one up. I'm not sure whether I'm more embarrassed by the fact that I teach at this college, or by the nasty comments of some of my fellow Charlotteans below the article.

CHARLOTTE, NC (WBTV) -
Andraya Williams was leaving the women's restroom on the first floor of the Overcash Building at Central Piedmont Community College in Charlotte. The 22-year-old was heading to class but didn't make it. Instead, the first semester freshman says she had an encounter that has soured her college experience.

"As I was exiting, the female security guard was coming in and she stopped me and asked me could she see me my student ID," says Williams. "And I told her yes and I asked her why. And she asked me was I male or female. And I told her female and she laughed."
