ezs note:  WOW! Despite all the roadblocks put in her way (and there are many) Kricket Nimmons triumphs.  To the transgender people, I think this is heartwarming.  To the cis people, this is essential reading.  It's quite long, but I suggest you read the whole thing.  It's definitely worth it.

A Portland University Wants Federal Permission to Ban Transgender Students

please press:  http://www.portlandmercury.com

ezs note:  Wow... how interesting.  I have no qualms with private colleges or universities instituting some strange and/or appalling codes...  but that's only if their funding remains totally private!  Note that the article said that Multnomah University accepted 1.1 million in federal funds!  Now, that's a different kettle of fish.  I do think that federal monies are a valuable resource, but if their hand remains out, certain standards have to be met.  Please urge your Congressperson if any money is to be doled out to a private institution, transgender people have to be welcomed.  (Thanks to Mr. VanderHart for your diligence.)
