What could possibly go wrong?
Like I said to one of my sons, “Everything’s cool until you break up the week before finals.” Is it really so hard to walk down the hall?
So if is for homosexuals, wouldn’t that mean “same sex” rooms? I am so confused!
Makes me want to barf in their socks.
Remember kids, “Accidents cause people”. Or a trip to the local Planned Parenthood office :(
Was that flagship, or fagship, school?
I worked in college housing for a while getting my Master’s. This is not going to work out well.
“I think its a great step for ensuring the safety of a lot of students at UNC, he said.”
Okay, I’m officially confused on this one. How is whether or not your roomie a guy or a girl affect your safety on campus? I don’t get it.
As for the New Jersey thing...the initial camera/spying was done by a male and a female. Just sayin’.
So how many FReepers made a point of voting for conservatives in these kinds of positions?
Can someone tell me why UNC-CH is so liberal? Every time a lefty academic is interviewed about some social issue there appears to be a 50/50 chance it’s somebody from that school.
I read the article, and don’t see how this makes anybody safer.
Are they saying that gay guys will now be able to room with girls, and that will keep them from getting harassed?
I presume two gay guys could already ask to room together, and you didn’t need gender-neutral housing for that.
On the other hand, this should solve the problem of all the transgender people not having a clue what to call themselves when registering.
Of course, this also means that some poor girl is going to get stuck in a room with some guy who wears a dress and then parades around naked in his dorm room.
My how times have changed. When I was a student the big deal was allowing overnight visitation of opposite-sex students in certain dorms. Now they have gone from visitation to outright co-habitation. What next, women forced to room with men to avoid discrimination? Meanwhile, the university alumni group wonders why I refuse to donate.
I didn’t realize UNC-CH was opening a zoo!
Wow...that is why you go to COLLEGE -- ALL THE SEX YOU WANT!!.
Will UNC-CH be selling condoms or giving them away?
..................students at UNC-Chapel Hill will be able to live in dorm suites and apartments with roommates of the opposite gender.
The UNC-CH Board of Trustees unanimously endorsed gender-neutral housing after a yearlong push by students who said the move was necessary to give gay, lesbian and transgender students a place free of harassment..................
Call me an unelightened 71 YO father, but what does allowing hetrosexuals to shack up in the same room have to do with giving queers and munchers a “place free from harrassment??”
If they want to live together, live in the co-ed dorms!
