Morehouse College, a Traditionally Black All-Male School, Says It Will Accept Transgender Men

Morehouse College (GA), an all-male, historically black school in Atlanta, said it would open its enrollment to transgender men, a shift that comes as protections for those in the transgender community are under fire.  The school’s gender identity policy, which was announced on Saturday, will continue to ban from enrollment anyone who identifies as a woman. David A. Thomas, the president of the college, said the decision was driven by a greater awareness of gender identity and the college’s need to have a clear policy.
