As a result of this extensive study, I, as president, along with the Spelman leadership team, and the Board, concur on the following admissions and enrollment policy: Spelman College, a Historically Black College whose mission is to serve high-achieving Black women, will consider for admission women students including students who consistently live and self-identify as women, regardless of their gender assignment at birth. Spelman does not admit male students, including students who self-identify and live consistently as men, regardless of gender assignment at birth. If a woman is admitted and transitions to male while a student at Spelman, the College will permit that student to continue to matriculate at and graduate from Spelman.

HOw does this college not get sued the frick out itself for violating Title IX? That's a serious question.


I'm not saying I oppose an all woman's college, in fact I think every institution should be able to discriminate as they see fit, but that isn't the world we live in.

If the statistics are true, and 3 out of 5 female college students are raped, and they are all female...... That doubles the rape.

So 120% of them are raped during college. Are some raped twice? How does it work?

When you are black it is perfectly fine to discriminate.

Anyone who argues against it is racist and not allowing this to occur is contributing to systematic racism

Honestly, I was only reading the thread because I fully expected LucasP to drop that one.

Probably because nobody wants to go there except the weirdos that can't see the double standard.

So basically they just allowed every gender to get in as long as you are black?

What if I identify as black? Can I get in too. I mean I would have to change my identity (which I guess is easy because it's not real) to black from white and to female from male.

However, in all this identifying can I keep my white privilege? If not...NO DEAL

Let me see if I get this correct. If a blackman wants to go to Spelman, they can identify as a black female, start school, then decide to transition back to a black male and they are able to finish Spelman?

Do we have all male colleges? I need a movement to shut this matriachy school down. I'm so triggered right now.
