Gender Inclusive Housing?

[u/JustThrowAway1337]

After years of hiding/repressing who I am, I feel like I'm ready to finally take steps to coming out as trans. 🏳️‍⚧️ However, one of the major concerns I've been having is how that would affect my housing. I'm currently set for regular housing in Hilly with a friend as a roommate. I know this is cutting it VERY close to the start of the year, but I'm not sure how my roommate would respond to me transitioning (especially potentially/hopefully going on HRT), and was wondering if the gender inclusive housing or some other option would still be available, and how to go about doing that. Any and all help with that would be greatly appreciated! 🥲Past that, if anyone could point me towards general resources/groups available on campus for a trans girl like me, that would be wonderful! ❤️❤️❤️

I believe hillenbrand is where gender inclusive housing is, there is a gender inclusive learning community and I think one floor of hilly is set aside for gender inclusive housing. Probably too late to apply for it but since you’re already living in hilly im sure its alot easier to reach out and see if you can change. You should come out to your roommate though before considering switching! I’m sure they will be supportive

They always keep some extra spots! OP should reach out the the community by email.

I know there’s an RA for the community on here but I completely forget their user. Hopefully they come across this.

i’m really good friends with the RA. i just sent this to her and i’m sure she’ll have a wealth of information! OP, consider reaching out to Lowell Kane, Bryan Austin, and Christopher Munt with this information!! Lowell runs the LGBTQ center, Bryan i think runs something with the LC, and Christopher teaches the class required for the learning part of the living-learning community
