Students at prestigious all-women’s Wellesley College vote to admit trans men, nonbinary students

Students at a university that has historically served women voted in favor of allowing biological women who now identify as men.

The official website for Wellesley College noted that the institution “was founded in 1870 by Henry and Pauline Durant, who were passionate about the higher education of women.” However, the university held a vote on Tuesday over a nonbinding call to allow applications from biological females who now identify as male, as well as calling for less gendered language in school materials.
