I disagree with your supervisor about the naming issue — I say tackle it head on, and call the class Passing for 'Normal'.
Admittedly, that title reflects my thinking about passing, which may not be yours. I think passing is something nearly everyone who is not inherently boring has tried to do. I, straight Anglo male though I am, have often used the phrase "passing for normal" to describe my own efforts to avoid social ostracism. And what is a Black or Asian or Native American trying to pass as White, or a gay person trying to pass as straight, really doing if not trying to blend into the anonymous crowd?
