Top-ranked university for LGBTQ students now lets them self-segregate in their own dorm - The College Fix:
‘A safe space for those people who feel they need it’
One of the most gay-friendly universities in the country is becoming even friendlier, by offering to shelter its LGBTQ students from the rest of the school.
Indiana University-Bloomington is opening a “thematic residence hall” this fall for students who don’t identify as straight men or women.
It will have a particular emphasis on transgender students and those who don’t “subscribe to conventional gender distinctions,” the Herald-Times reported, citing GLBT Student Support Services Office Coordinator Doug Bauder.
...Students who live in the dorm will enjoy opportunities such as forming a delegation to the Midwest Bisexual Lesbian Gay Transgender Ally College Conference and attending campus events “such as a campus film screening, guest speaker, Kinsey art exhibit, etc.,” RPS says.
Recent winners in the Kinsey Institute Juried Art Show include an artist who made a “self-portrait” of her own sexual intercourse and climax, and another who designed a wooden sculpture of male genitalia in the posture of a rodeo bull.
