Hi everyone:
For those of you who have been following the uproar over Smith College —another prominent women’s college— horrible policy of not admitting trans* women into their undergraduate program, this may be of interest.
I applied to Simmons College —a prominent women’s college— with an application that clearly identified me as a trans* woman and spoke of my work within the trans* community. They never questioned my gender markers or asked me about being trans* and responded with the letter above.
To all who work in admissions at Simmons, thank you for leading
by example. Smith —despite being labeled a safe haven for the queer community— clearly has a lot to learn from your institution.-Alex Sennello
Yeah Simmons- way to be awesome yet again!
send me submissions!
c’mon, I know you’re all hilarious!

So proud to go to school with such empowered people. When we see something’s wrong, we do something about it.
Make Simmons a place that’s comfortable for everyone.
