Wes Mentioned for Gender-Neutral Rooms

In the boston globe along with Oberlin College, Hampshire College, Clark University and Dartmouth College. But Tuft's (also known as the University of Students Rejected from Harvard) Dean of student affairs finds it disturbing and a preclude to sexual encounters.

"We're not ready to provide coed bedrooms," he said. "That's a position we don't see changing in the near future. Allowing coed living situations would create unnecessary distractions and problematic romantic entanglements"

Jason Mattera, a spokesman for the Young America's Foundation, also thinks it's crazy.
"It's a disturbing trend, and from a purely academic perspective, it seems bizarre. Colleges should have some sort of standards and guidelines in fostering the best possible learning environment."

Sure...

let's not be so mean to Tufts. After all, if they're the Harvard reject school, then we're the Brown reject school.

more like boys pee all over the seat and shave over the sink without cleaning it afterwards.

Dudes, this is about gender nuteral ROOMS, not bathrooms (which I bet Tufts has at least some of). Kinds different...I man, I still totally support it, but it's a lot less common,

The silly thing is that this only applies for upperclassmen at Wes... and very very few sophomores+ live in one room doubles anyway.

The comment about Tufts was really unnecessary and mean. (Plus, I'd rather go to Tufts than Harvard any day... but that's not the point).
