The term used to imply sexual orientation, not "gender".

>>>As an optional part of our employment application, Colorado College includes the terms ”male,” “female,” “transgender” and “queer” for gender. >>>>>

The following sentence is also confusing:

>>>>>The options include to not disclose, “male”, “female,” “transgender” or “queer.”>>>>>

Is there supposed to be quotes around to "not disclose"?

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
