Exploring the effectiveness and impact of the MHSAA Policy on Transgender Students: Learning from the experiences of trans- youth in Manitoba high schools
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This thesis analyzes the creation, implementation, and impacts of the Manitoba High Schools Athletic Association's 2015 policy, the MHSAA Policy on Transgender Students. The daily experiences of a sample of trans- youth in sport settings in Manitoba high schools are analyzed by listening to and learning from trans- youth directly. From interviews with stakeholders, much feedback was sought from various stakeholder organizations throughout the processes of creating the policy. However, an absence of the voices of trans- youth within these conversations is present. From the students participating in this study, it became clear that the policy is not entirely effective in creating safer, inclusive high school sports and the spaces sport is taken up in. Trans- youth call for social changes to take place within schools in order for a policy such as the MHSAA Policy on Transgender Students to be effective.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
