"Barnard College is considering a new policy to officially make transgender women eligible for admission, following the lead of many other women's colleges around the country and at a time when transgender women and men are increasingly in the media spotlight.
Over the last six months, Barnard has held a series of town hall style meetings for students, alumnae and faculty to debate the possibility of introducing a policy dealing with admissions for transgender women."

Barnard has been in difficulties since Columbia College started accepting women. Both schools are part of Columbia University and students from both colleges can take the same courses, or, at least they could when I attended. Admittedly Columbia men were discouraged by the Barnard faculty.
