Bring Gender-Neutral Housing to GVSU Petition!
Sign Now
The housing proposal would allow any two students, regardless of sex or gender, to live in any GVSU residence building that allows occupants to have their own separate bedroom. The policy would apply only to those who specify on their housing application that they would prefer to utilize this option (blind choices would remain same-sex).
The housing policy seeks to create more options in the room selection process so that ALL students are able to find a compatible roommate and would ease tensions felt by students who struggle to find safe and comfortable living spaces under the current housing requirements, including gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and queer students.
This housing policy change aligns perfectly with Grand Valleys position found in the Affirmative Action Statement which states that our university encourages equal opportunity in the use of its facilities and does not limit access to university activities on the basis of sex/gender, gender identity and expression. It is also consistent to GVSUs values of inclusiveness and community.

As an alumna of Grand Valley State this option would have proven invaluable in maintaining my safety and peace of mind durring the time in which I transitioned. This is a next logical step for gender equality.
