Here’s some late night thinking for you. Although I agree that it’s a step towards legitimizing trans men at the school, as most places have the heteronormative girl/boy separation when it comes to hosting prospies, it’s hard to think of Smith as trans friendly when they require full legal transition for trans women applicants. That requirement is nearly impossible unless you have completely supportive and affluent guardians.
Anyway. Food for thought.
