Gender-Inclusive Housing

The Office of Residence Life values all students and the unique perspectives that they bring to campus and wants every student who lives on campus to feel comfortable and safe. Based on the needs and preferences of our students as well as a nationwide shift in preferences, we are now offering a gender-inclusive 住房 学生选择. Offering mixed gendered 住房 reflects values of social justice, 比如协作, 合作, 股本, 和国籍, which are paramount in the context of higher education. This option of mixed-gendered 住房 allows our students to practice those values in an educational setting.

Gender-inclusive 住房 allows for students to be permitted to have roommates and suitemates regardless of gender identity. Gender-inclusive 住房 recognizes however that gender exists on a spectrum and that there are, 事实上, an infinite amount of genders and gender expressions. Gender-inclusive 住房 allows individuals who do not identify as their biological sex, identify as transgender, 性别酷儿, 非二进制, 等., or who are allies for these students and would just feel more comfortable in an inclusive, more diverse living environment to live together.
