"(USA TODAY) - A sorority at Missouri State University has changed its bylaws to accept transgender students who "identify as a girl."

The Xi Omicron Iota sorority previously required members to "be a girl."

Sorority President Danielle Marquard said the bylaw change was suggested by member Kara Venzian and was enthusiastically embraced by the rest of the local Greek chapter."
