It is satire. President Troha is neither androgenous nor transgender. He is a scholar and a fine person. The whole thing is fictional to poke fun at campus PC.
Yes, satire and completely made up. And I would also add that the real Juniata College is not exactly in the "rolling hills of south-central" Pennsylvania. I live in south central PA - York. Harrisburg and points south, east and west of Harribug; Dauphin, Cumberland, Adams, York, Lebanon, Berks and Lancaster, maybe even Perry counties are considered "south central". Junita and the State College area which is not far from Junita are considered "mid-state" or "central" PA and the natives of those areas are often referred to as Pensyltuckians" - LOL!
Sounds like a campus after my heart. If I had kids, I'd send them there.
Thank you!
