transgender students

Policies accepting applications from transgender women are still an emerging trend at women’s colleges.

The American Federation of Teachers has pledged to ensure trans students “have equal access consistent with their gender identity to sex-segregated facilities and programs.”

Fort Worth Superintendent Kent Scribner said Wednesday that transgender guidelines have been condensed and students will be handled on a “case-by-case basis.”

The policy outlines the rights, protections and support systems schools must provide for transgender students.

Assistant Superintendent Rob Smith says that could increase homeowners’ taxes by $300 a year.

With two major developments in the federal government’s policy on gender issues, last week was heady for trans people and advocates.

Two fraternities at the University of Oregon have announced they will accept “any self-identified male student.”
