GENDER INCLUSIVE RESTROOMS
RAINBOW COMMUNITY
The mission of the Rainbow community is to provide housing for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and questioning students, as well as their allies. The restrooms will be gender-inclusive. As a resident or guest of the community, you are expected to be respectful and sensitive to all identities within the LGBTQ+ community.
Learning Outcomes
By living together on the Rainbow Floor, residents will become self-aware and empowered students who foster inclusion at DePauw and thrive together. The following learning outcomes will be achieved:
-
Community
By living and learning together, members will cultivate a strong sense of self, community, and connection among LGBTQ+, gender expansive, and allied students.
-
Context and Knowledge
Members will gain a greater understanding of LGBTQ+ identities and cultures related to historical and contemporary experiences of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, asexual, aromantic, and gender-expansive individuals.
-
Inclusion And Belonging
A strong sense of belonging will be fostered by members taking care of one another, accepting others, making meaningful connections with each other, building an affinity towards the hall/university, and being the best version of themselves.
