Trump Targets Smith College as His Anti-Trans Agenda Ramps Up
The Department of Education has opened in investigation into Smith.
President Donald Trump’s Department of Education is targeting Smith College for accepting transgender women.
The DOE’s Office of Civil Rights announced Monday that it would investigate Smith College for allowing “biological males into women’s intimate spaces” in violation of Title IX, the landmark 1972 law banning sex discrimination that the Trump administration has used to rampantly discriminate against transgender people.
“Title IX contains a single-sex exception that allows colleges to enroll all-male or all-female student bodies—but the exception applies on the basis of biological sex difference, not subjective gender identity,” the DOE said in a statement. “An all-girls college that enrolls male students professing a female identity would cease to qualify as single sex under Title IX.”
