Currah will teach only one course per year as long as he heads the center and he will have less time for his own writing.
Currah was among those activists who argued, unsuccessfully, for including transgendered people in the Sexual Orientation Non-Discrimination Act, a New York State law that bans discrimination based on sexual orientation enacted last December.
The center is ahead of the curve, Currah said, and he points to the acceptance of transgender inclusion by many gay and lesbian groups as evidence that supposedly radical ideas can quickly become the conventional wisdom.

The 48-year-old Currah's dedication to the study and teaching of mycology has garnered him a 2002 Killam Annual Professorship at the U of A. Currah studies the taxonomy and ecology of fungi--identifying fungi and then figuring out what they do in their natural environment.
Currah thinks everyone should know more about fungi because they play important biological and ecological roles--they act as pathogens that cause animal and plant diseases; some, like penicillin, can save lives; they decompose dead plants and animals, thereby cycling nutrients through ecosystems; and they form symbiotic relationships with certain plants, helping them take up nutrients.
Currah and his students also travel to other parts of Canada and the world to collect soil samples.

 TRANSGENDER RIGHTS
By excavating both the facts and jurisprudence of recent legal cases involving people of transgender experience, Currah argues that rather than fixing “transgender” as a static new category or reified protected class, rights-based transgender advocacy has instead expanded meaning of gender and sex toward a spectrum of non-conforming identities, bodies, and practices.
In maintaining this focus, Currah hopes to undermine people of transgender experience as passive subjects of knowledge by scholarship that seeks clinical or anthropological understanding of who trans people are or “why we exist.”
Unfortunately, Currah does not fully elaborate on the connection between legal change and social or cultural change in his reading of a rights-based strategy.

 COURT TV ONLINE - CAUGHT ON THE WEB
According to Currah, Minnesota and Rhode Island are the only states so far to enact anti-discrimination laws that explicitly refer to transsexual or transgender people.
A number of cities and counties have such laws, but advocates are pushing for additional laws and favorable rulings in a number of states.
Currah said the questions all boil down to people and their right to choose their own identity and lifestyle without facing discrimination because they buck the "predominant norms" in society about what makes a man a man and a woman a woman.
