Gender Inclusive Community
This community provides a welcoming atmosphere to all students with increased flexibility to meet the needs of transgender, gender non-conforming, nonbinary, and LGBTQ+ students and allies to preference a housing assignment that is inclusive, safe, and comfortable.
Residents who list this community as a preference can be assigned to:
- Single with a bathroom
- Double with a bathroom
- Triple with a bathroom
Note: roommate preferences can be of any gender (regardless of a student’s assigned sex, gender, gender expression, or sexual orientation). If you do not indicate a roommate preference, a roommate of any gender may be assigned with you.
