A brief description of the program, policy, or practice:
Yes, Bryant University offers housing options to accommodate the needs of transgender and transitioning students.
Gender neutral housing is a housing option that allows students to room with other students of any gender. A male student and a female student can jointly choose to live together in a double room within a suite. This housing choice provides an option for transgender students, gay or bisexual students, students who feel uncomfortable rooming with members of the same sex, intersexed students who do not wish to be identified by any sex and students who feel they would be more compatible with a roommate of a different gender. The gender neutral housing option reflects Bryant’s commitment to fostering an inclusive living and learning environment
In Fall 2012, a pilot project was carried out that offered hall 17 as gender neutral. Currently, residential life has expanded gender neutral housing options to include the village (halls 1-13) and hall 17. During the fall of 2013, 6-8 townhouses were requested for gender neutral housing.
