How to make a method generic when "type 'T' must be a reference type"?

Why do I get “error: … must be a reference type” in my C# generic method?

I have 2 Repository methods that are almost identical:

public IList<Fund> GetFundsByName(int pageSize, string searchExpression)
{
return _session.CreateCriteria<Fund>()
.AddNameSearchCriteria<Fund>(searchExpression)
.AddOrder<Fund>(f => f.Name, Order.Asc)
.SetMaxResults(pageSize).List<Fund>();
}


public IList<Company> GetCompaniesByName(int pageSize, string searchExpression)
{
return _session.CreateCriteria<Company>()
.AddNameSearchCriteria<Company>(searchExpression)
.AddOrder<Company>(f => f.Name, Order.Asc)
.SetMaxResults(pageSize).List<Company>();
}

The only difference is that the first one's _session.CreateCriteria is of type Fund and the second one is company

I was hoping that I could make this generic by changing the method definition to:

public IList<T> GetEntitiesByName<T>(int pageSize, string searchExpression)
where T : ISearchableEntity
{
return _session.CreateCriteria<T>()
.AddNameSearchCriteria<T>(searchExpression)
.AddOrder<T>(f => f.Name, Order.Asc)
.SetMaxResults(pageSize).List<T>();
}

where ISearchableEntity is defined as:

public interface ISearchableEntity
{
string Name { get; set; }
}

but unfortunately NHibernate doesn't like this and gives me the error:

The type 'T' must be a reference type in order to use it as parameter 'T' in the generic type or method 'NHibernate.ISession.CreateCriteria<T>()'

Is it possible for me to make this generic some other way?
