In 2020, Kathleen Lowrey, an associate professor of anthropology, was informed that her contract for an administrative role would not be renewed. Lowrey a self-described "gender-critical feminist" says she was dismissed over her views that transgender identity doesn’t trump biological sex for policy decisions, as some segments of the LGBTQ movement do.
