A federal court on Friday ruled that a college sorority is free to choose which students to admit, dismissing a complaint by members who find the presence of a male identifying as a transgender woman in female-only spaces unacceptable.

The case centers around Artemis Langford, who entered the all-female Kappa Kappa Gamma (KKG) sorority at the University of Wyoming last September. A group of seven KKG members sued the North American collegiate sorority mottoed “Dream Boldly, Live Fully,” in March, alleging that it had ignored its own charter and bylaws to admit a male who had not undergone gender change surgery into its all-female ranks.
