Salem College debates how to handle transgender studentshttp://www.journalnow.com/news/local/article_a3d18568-5c52-11e2-9e64-0019bb30f31a.htmlAuthor: John Hinton Source: Journal Now /Winston-Salem Journal
"An undergraduate at all-female Salem College is asking to remain on campus after undergoing an operation in February to complete his transition to a man, a college alumnae says, and college officials are looking at whether to create a policy on transgender students."
"Founded in 1772 by Moravians, Salem College is a four-year liberal-arts school for women. It has enrollment of 1,100 students, including men who are 23 and older who take undergraduate courses at the Fleer Center for Adult Education. However, only female students are allowed to live on campus, according to the school's website."
Salem students are afraid that if the FTM student is allowed to live on campus, that the trustees will change the all-female college into a co-educational institution, though the board has since stated that it will not make the school co-ed.
