My reaction to this depends on the dynamics of the campus and the specifics of this transgendered student. There are different stages of being transgendered. The very fact that they said they welcome a "male student who identifies as transgendered" lets me know that they haven't figured this out yet. I always recommend holding off on things like this until the student knows what she or he is doing; the organization and chapter know what they're doing; and the school knows what it's doing. The exploratory stage is womp womp and isn't automatically progressive just because it is exploratory.

I don't think Kwame (blah name) will be extended a bid. If she is then it will most likely be to prove a point. No, sisterhood does not conquer all. It would conquer all if she was a she prior to coming to college and wasn't introduced as a "male student who identifies as transgendered." Blah.
