[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some schools have added it as a category- and that isn't gay bashing. Johns hopkins medical school has added it- and other schools have as well. there is nothing green eyed about a fact!![/quote]

Medical school is different than undergrad.  If I recall correctly, Hopkins and/or some others have made a point of noting that they want to increase certain populations because there are not enough med students with an interest in/sensitive to medical needs of certain communities, such as people who are transgender.  This makes perfect sense  Not long ago, med schools said the same thing about women -- and now we are beginning to see more attention paid to women's cardiac and other health issues where research protocols focused mostly on men may not be perfect proxies.   Yes, an undergraduate program I also interested in having a diverse population of students with different views, etc., but that is coming at it from a bit less concrete angle.  The med school example is more pragmatic -- like being sure you don't have an all white police force in a town that has a large non-white population. It makes for more successful policing. [/quote]
