I think this college was listed as "preppy" in the "Preppy Handbook" 44 years ago.

"Sweet Briar College, a private women’s liberal arts school located outside Amherst, Virginia, has adopted a revised admissions policy banning transgender women from enrolling.

The revised policy, adopted last month, stems from the legally binding will of Sweet Briar’s founder, Indiana Fletcher Williams, who died in 1900. The college, which currently has about 460 students (known as “Vixens” due to their mascot being a female fox), is located on Williams’ estate, a former plantation. It began accepting students in 1906.

According to the college, Williams’ will said the school was intended to be a place “for the education of white girls and young women.”

The college had to get permission from a federal judge to accept Black students after the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

Sweet Briar College President Mary Pope Hutson and Mason Bennett Rummel, the chair of the board for Sweet Briar Institute, argued that the references to “girls” and “women” contained in Williams’ will “must be interpreted as it was understood at the time the Will was written.”

So, the school’s new policy, beginning with next year’s admissions class, requires applicants to confirm that their sex assigned at birth was female and that each applicant “consistently lives and identifies as a woman.”

This potentially calls into question the status of transgender men or nonbinary individuals assigned female at birth who are already attending Sweet Briar.

“Sweet Briar College believes that single-sex education is not only our tradition, but also a unique cultural and social resource,” President Mary Pope Hutson told the Associated Press in a statement."
