DOE Opens Title IX Probe Into Smith College's Trans Women Admissions
TL;DR
The Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights has opened a Title IX investigation into Smith College over its admission of transgender women, assessing whether the private all-women’s college violated rules by admitting individuals who are not biologically female; Smith has admitted trans women since 2015 and now accepts applicants who self-identify as women, amid ongoing debates about gender identity and Title IX protections.
