I'm of two minds about this.
One, the person is transgender; anyone who calls him "she" or "hesheit" is way, way beyond rude. He is a he and always has been, nature just went and fked up and he's trying to fix that wrong.
That said, he's an idiot for wanting to go to this school. They have every right to dictate the rules of their University and if you don't like it, don't go, pick another one more GLBT friendly. Stuff like this irks the holy hell out of me.

She applies for a Christian school and is admitted as a Freshman. I am making some assumptions here but seeing that this school year is about over I imagine this is for the upcoming Fall 2014 Semester. Now right out of the gate she is saying she wants to be in the boys dorms regardless of the rules. She is a woman and the dorms are separated between men and women. She does not care about the school rules and wants it her way.
She already has lawyers working on this. She is doing this for the attention.
It's also a person who decided to attend a CHRISTIAN university. I don't see why a Christian University should ignore its Christian rules just to suit its pupils. He should learn to abide by the rules, and should have thought twice before attending a Christian university.
By reading the article, I learned that he was actually born a she. There's a reason he's a transsexual. And that's because he changed his gender.
Makes you wonder how the law would react if a student attending a private, non-religious college demanded that the school reorganize their curriculum, facilities and living arrangements to accommodate their individual needs in the name of 'Rights and Freedoms'
Thus showing your ignorance of what a Transgender person is; TG is not just the "change of one's gender" but more than that. It's fixing a mistake made by nature (or, as some would say, God). It's years of therapy to accept that it's okay to be TG. Years of abuse to get past from family, friends and strangers. Saying it's just a matter of "changing the gender" is over-simplifying just how complicated it is.
I wonder if this is the only school she could attend or the only school that would accept her.
I doubt it. It is a private college so I am sure she had other options.
The same way although it probably would not make the news. I am just picking a school but I bet if Ohio St. had this issue it would be strait out no.
No, I'm not. Transgender means you have changed your gender. This guy was born a girl and then became a boy. It's as simple as that.
God doesn't make mistakes. There were no mistakes. This person was born a female. He should have been a female.
I'm not sure I understand why anyone would want to attend such a bigoted, backward thinking, school either.
To get attention.
Sounds to me like this has many elements that the complaint was done on a premeditated basis
Of course it is. And likely somebody suggested it might be an edgy idea and they'd back them up. Maybe a squeaky lawyer. You know how they are.
There's nothing bigoted or backward in this school. It's a CHRISTIAN school and its pupils are Christians who have no problems with its rules at all (except this person).
If you have problems with the school's rules you shouldn't be attending that school.
Just because one person didn't respect the gender that God gave them and then decided, for mysterious reasons, to attend a Christian school and then throw his toys out of his pram because he was made to abide by that school's Christian principles then that's no fault of the school.
It's a Christian school. Deal with it, like he has to.
I shouldn't be so cavalier in terms of stating this individual's motivation as is it were fact, obviously my opinion is based on speculation.
That said, I find it almost calculating that someone would apply/attend this University having full knowledge in advance that this would (likely) be a highly contentious issue.
OK EVERYONE!!!
