Wellesley College Votes to Admit Trans Men and Nonbinary Students.

Students at Wellesley College voted in a nonbinding ballot initiative to allow transgender men and nonbinary students to be eligible for admission, but the school does not plan to change its admissions policies. The college's "gender policy" currently invites applications from all those who live as women and consistently identify as women, including transgender women, as well as nonbinary people who were assigned female at birth and who feel they belong in the community of women. The vote comes at a time when the rights of transgender people are at the center of national debates, and students who support the initiative say the school's administrators have not done enough to support transgender students.
