Wow, this is the first time I've seen news media use the gender confirmation phrase, which is pretty awesome.

And $50,000 seems off the mark, especially if they aren't covering FFS on the trans female spectrum, but from what I understand it's a whole other ballgame with trans male SRS (like up to $100,000?.

depends on the surgery. i've heard prices between $15k to $80k.

What I would hope is that it also covers breast implants for transwomen.

Sweet! Hopefully this is the start of a trend for universities.

If only they didn't want SAT scores for transfer students. :/
