MALE, FEMALE IN SAME DORM ROOM

Grant Swank* | May 3, 2008 

J. Grant Swank, Jr.

 

That’s right. Colleges are now offering gender-blind dorm room sharing.

 

If a boy wants to room with a girl, fine. Vice Versa.

 

They say it’s not about sex. Give me a break. That’s only if a homosexual shares a room with a hetero. Otherwise. . .

 

Parents are wary. But many parents are not married themselves. In other words, they have shared a “dorm room” without the title “marriage.”

 

“Most schools introduced the couples option in the past three or four years.

 

“So far, relatively few students are taking part। At the University of Pennsylvania, which began offering coed rooms in 2005, about 120 out of 10,400 students took advantage of the option this year.

 

“At UC Riverside, which has approximately 6,000 students in campus housing, about 50 have roommates of the opposite sex. The school has had the option since 2005.”

 

That’s a good sign. Obviously students are not flocking to sign up for male-female dorm share. Interesting, isn’t it?

 

“At least two dozen schools, including Brown University, the University of Pennsylvania, Oberlin College, Clark University and the California Institute of Technology, allow some or all students to share a room with anyone they choose, including someone of the opposite sex. This spring, as students sign up for next year’s room, more schools are following suit, including Stanford University” per AP.
