Transgender student inspires at Chapman pageant

ORANGE – A Chapman University senior became the first transgender contestant in the university's annual all-woman pageant Wednesday night, winning the title of Miss Congeniality.
Addie Vincent, 21, faced off against 15 other competitors for the title of Miss Delta Queen, a competition organized by the university's Greek system. The pageant's winner was Alexandria Kessinger.
"Tonight was so awesome," Vincent said after the pageant. "The fact that I was just able to compete was so amazing on its own."
Throughout the contest, many of the 500 students and audience members whooped and hollered every time Vincent took the stage at Memorial Hall.
"But who is that on the other side of you?"
T.S. Eliot
