Goddard College Plainfield Vermont Dr. Steven James Theft of Federal Student Aid money, Age anti-trans discrimination in Psychology and Counseling Program. False advertizing misrepresentation of material facts regarding caliber of acccreditation requ Plainfield, Vermont

Goddard advertizes training and competency in a Sexual Orientation Psychology Master's Degree.  As a 49 year old transwoman, I experienced nothing but barriers getting support do do my practicum in a q***r friendly enviroment.  When troubles arose on practicums because of my transsexualism or for other reasons, the school did not intervene and I was eventually dismissed after finishing my thesis material. Many adult ( over 40) learners I attended this program with in several states, got no support for viable internships and were dismissed, or their degree is not recognized for licensure in their states. 

I took the school to court with the Vermont Human Rights Commission in January of 2112, and Goddard College was defiant in describing how they felt I did not do my diligence and that they were not required to do theirs.  I did not win my case with the state HRC  because of anti-trans discrimination, but I did make a strong statement about how myself and others continue to be ripped off and not supported in their college work.  I do not recommend this program, and hope an online record is made with regard to Goddard College Psychology and Counseling Program Sexual Orientation Concentration.
