...current policy many students are forced into regrettable housing situations without the benefit of consent. That gender-segregated housing prevents students from living with whom they are most comfortable is reason enough for the administration to change the policy.Opponents of mixed-gender housing raise the issue of sexual assault, which is an extraordinarily important issue in its own right. But in the context of choosing roommates, this argument is flawed. Susan Marine, the director of the Office for Sexual Assault Prevention and Response, has reviewed research on the matter and has found no relationship between the type of housing...

What?s more, there were no shots fired at all and the units had met no resistance, said the U.S. and Iraqi commanders...
...Radcliffe Union of Students released a statement saying that “mixed-gender rooms will lead to a greater understanding of gender-related issues for all undergraduates.” But some students have expressed concern that co-ed rooming will cause an increase in sexual assault and violence. “My primary concern is that a lot of studies show that when two members of different genders room together there’s an increased chance of abuse,” Eddie Y.
