Michigan State Rethinks Plans for Gender-Neutral Bathrooms in Renovated Dorms

It’s clear that most of the students didn’t even want this.

Michigan State walks back fully gender-neutral bathrooms at newly-renovated dorms
Michigan State University has walked back its decision to implement fully gender-neutral bathrooms at Campbell Hall, just weeks after unveiling the dorm’s $37 million renovation.
Originally built in 1939, Campbell Hall reopened this fall after a major overhaul. The renovated dorm included modern amenities such as study and music rooms, as well as newly designed all-gender bathrooms featuring private enclosed stalls and showers instead of the traditional communal layout.
The new system was meant to promote inclusivity and privacy for the dorm’s 245 residents, most of whom are first-year students according to the Lansing State Journal. But within weeks, administrators began receiving reports that some students were uncomfortable with the arrangement.
By mid-semester, MSU partially reversed course, labeling some bathrooms as male-only, some as female-only, and keeping others gender-neutral.
University officials said the change was intended to give students more flexibility and to address concerns raised during the first months of the semester.
However, some students reportedly ignored the new signage altogether, continuing to use whichever restroom was most convenient.

I see nothing at all wrong with gender neutral, single use, bathrooms.
They are the best of all worlds in terms of queueing theory. There is never a shortage of one and a surplus of the other, regardless of who is waiting.
