Professor Cristina Mislán Professor Sandy Davidson Professor Amanda Hinnant Professor Becky Scott MASCULINITY AND THE NHL Acknowledgements I would like to begin by thanking my committee chair, Dr. Cristina Mislán, for her guidance and help throughout this project, and beyond. From the first class I took at Missouri, Mass Media Seminar, to the thesis itself, she encouraged me to see the world through different lenses and inspired a passion for cross-disciplined study. Her assistance was invaluable in completing this project. Next, I would like to thank my committee members: Dr. Sandy Davidson, Dr. Amanda Hinnant and Dr. Becky Scott. All three members provided insight and feedback into different portions of the project at its early stages and each one made the study stronger. Dr. Davidson’s tireless support and enthusiasm was infectious and her suggestion to explore the legal concerns the NHL might have about violence and head injuries led me to explore the commoditization of players.

  • Policy for Transgender and Non-Binary Inclusion
    USA Gymnastics POLICY FOR TRANSGENDER & NON-BINARY ATHLETE INCLUSION Updated October 2020 INTRODUCTION/PURPOSE USA Gymnastics supports diversity and inclusion in all aspects of gymnastics and is committed to providing a safe, supportive and welcoming environment for transgender and non-binary people within our community. USA Gymnastics has developed this policy and accompanying education in a proactive effort to help guide and support members of the gymnastics community. Transgender is an umbrella term used to describe people whose gender identity does not correspond with the sex they were assigned at birth. Many identities fall under the transgender umbrella, some of which are: • Transgender boys or men: Those who were assigned female at birth whose gender identity is male. • Transgender girls or women: Those who were assigned male at birth whose gender identity is female • Non-binary: Those who experience their gender identity and/or gender expression as falling outside the binary categories of male or female. Not all non-binary people identify as transgender. In all cases, it is critical to respect and listen to the individual and allow them to tell you how they identify. The goal of this policy is to provide direction to member clubs, meet directors, judges, parents, and transgender and non-binary athletes on how transgender and non-binary athletes may participate in competitive gymnastics. This policy will respect the privacy of affected individuals, is based on medical facts, and is consistent with applicable discrimination laws. Because we know this is an area of research that is continuing to grow and change, this policy will be reviewed and updated at least every 3 years.
