The Evergreen State College gets gender neutral housing

By , About.com Guide   August 27, 2010

Follow me on:

I'm always pleased to report news of a college or university that's added gender neutral housing. This time around, Olympia, Washington liberal arts school The Evergreen State College joins the list of institutions with inclusive housing for students.

Why gender neutral housing?
Guys with guys, girls with girls. Those are the general housing rules on most university campuses. Sounds straight forward, but the idea of limiting student housing choices by gender leaves few options for undergraduates that desire or feel more comfortable rooming with students of opposite genders.
