We're also on Twitter now. Check it out on the sidebar!

One of the 14 girls who will compete on the new season of America's Next Top Model – which returns to The CW on September 3 – is transgender.

"My cards were dealt differently," Isis, a 22-year-old former receptionist, tells Us Weekly exclusively in its new issue, on newsstands now.

Hailing from Prince George's County, Maryland, Isis identifies herself as "a woman born physically male."

Will she be a role model?

"I like to help people, but I'm here to follow my dreams," she tells Us.

The inclusion of Isis is being hailed by GLAAD president Neil Giuliano as "an unprecedented opportunity for a community that is underrepresented on television.

"We applaud Tyra Banks and The CW for making this historic visibility of transgender people possible," Giuliano said.

techie stuff

What am I doing up at 1:30 am on a school night?

I'm happy to announce that our website has finally been updated! It's nothing fancy, just some general information and whatnot. I can not believe that I actually learned how use Filezila, Kerberos and NVu! Updating a website is nothing like maintaining a blog, there are so much more involved in it. Hopefully we'll find someone else to do it in the future, or switch to something a little less rigorous. Also, we have been informed that we had some issues with our email. If you have attempted to email us over the summer, we sincerely apologize for not responding-- we didn't get the emails. But feel free to post a comment on here, and we'll be sure to address any of your issues, questions or concerns.

Speaking of emails, our president, Terri, just informed us that techie peeps over in Durham Hall drooped the ball in sending our "Big Gay E-Mail" (it's our once a semester, campus-wide email announcing our general assembly meetings). This sucked cause the meeting is tonight, and we already paid them for the service that they failed to provide. (Yes, it cost money to spam... I mean, advertise.)

But if you are reading this prior to tonight's (Sept 3rd) meeting, please spread the word and let everyone know who might be interested.

In the meantime, I'll leave you with this rather creepy video from Daft Funk: Technologic.



Update 8:30 am. The emails were finally sent out! It's a little later than what we would have wanted, but I suppose it serves it purpose. It is entirely possible that they may have processed the email on time, but due to some techie bureaucracy, it didn't come out in a timely manner. Fiber optics and broadband stuff seems to have a mind of its own. (Ha! It sounded like I KNOW what I'm talking about.)

So I would like to issue a mea culpa to the techie peeps over at Durham Hall. I'm sure you tried your best.
