Fired for Using Pronouns in Emails: Christian University in NY
TL;DR Summary
Two former dorm directors at Houghton University, a small Christian university in New York, were fired for refusing to remove gender identities from their work email signatures in line with a new policy for email formats implemented in September. The firings have prompted more than 700 Houghton alumni to sign a petition in protest. Ongoing culture wars in the US over sexual preferences, gender IDs, and transgender rights have engulfed politics, school campuses, and many other facets of public and private life.
