FSU introduces new LGBTQ+ housing option; Gender Odyssey responds
Faith Matson
Beginning in the Fall 2021 semester, Florida State University students will have the option to express interest in LGBTQ+ housing on their housing applications. The change mirrors the actions of other universities around the country, including the University of Florida, who have made similar efforts to accommodate LGBTQ+ students.
With the new housing option, students will be able to indicate if they would like to live in LGBTQ+ housing, which will welcome both students who identify as members of the LGBTQ+ community and allies.
According to FSU Housing, the housing option has already been offered to almost 200 current FSU housing residents. Incoming freshmen interested in living on campus will also be eligible to opt into LGBTQ+ housing, and the students will be made aware of the option as they complete the housing application process.
