The Hatchet’s editorial board calls on GW to start a trial program for gender neutral housing.
GW is known for its progressive nature, and gender-related issues are well represented by active groups such as Allied in Pride. Gender-neutral housing would be a natural development for such a progressive university. To that end, GW should establish a trial-basis gender-neutral residence hall to understand all of the issues and challenges that gender-neutral housing would present.


Hello GW students. I am a student at Wheaton College in Massachusetts, and I was referred to this article by a friend at your school. I just thought I should comment because just two weeks ago Wheaton SGA and administration gave their approval of a Gender-Neutral Housing proposal that a group of students had worked on for two years. So, if you are trying to pass this at your school (which you should) Wheaton’s proposal can be used as an example.
Here is the link to the article from our newspaper, and the proposal should be on our web site sometime soon.
