Some students don’t want to be referred to in male or female pronouns because they carry societal labels, preferring the pronoun “ze” (for she) or “hir” (for he), Henry said. “Even in class as the chair of gender studies I get told, ‘I don’t want to be called she,’ ze said.”

In my experience most people that go to Grinnell College are essentially A-Sexual anyway.

Iowa State could use some uni-sex bathrooms/showers.

The college in Boy Meets World had uni-sex bathrooms/showers... Of course that was Disney, where all your dreams come true.

So, if you sit there watching chicks take showers do you get in trouble?
Re: Grinnell Has Uni-Sex Dorm and Locker Rooms
I can't think of a single problem they may encounter in the future. Two thumbs up. Way to go Grinnell!

I think there is an option for unisex rooms, but no one is forced to use it - I think, otherwise, this is the dumbest move ever.

I don't see why the liability would be any different than any other public restroom facility. Rape, assault and "peeping" can certain happen (and has) in uni-sex bathrooms.
