<p>Hello,</p>
<p>I notice that some colleges these days have coed bathrooms or even coed dorm rooms. I think this is a good thing; however, I do understand that it would make some people uncomfortable. I was just wondering, I know there aren't coed bathrooms or dorm rooms, but what is the most coed living situation at UVA? </p>
<p>I know what the hall-style dorms separating gender by floor are like. Are there any suite-style dorms with different genders on the same floor, but on different sides of the hall? I'm just wondering where you would find the most integration, as separating genders seems a bit archaic or mean, though I know the majority of colleges do this. </p>
<p>I know you can't choose your dorm so this is silly, but I'm just wondering.</p>
<p>What about the residential colleges; do any of them have more gender integration than usual? </p>
<p>Please chime in. </p>
<p>Brown college has different genders by floor, but keep in mind that each floor only has maybe 8 people on it, so it’s more mixed than a floor with 30 people for example. There were also a lot of stay-overs with boyfriends in my experience in Brown, so there were always opposite genders around. It was definitely an adjustment!</p>
<p>You should also consider living off grounds after first year, you can live with who you like. Also, if you study abroad, you can find more opportunities do this also.</p>
<p>IRC has whole floors/dorms by gender so that’s less mixed than Brown. I don’t know about Hereford but with all the singles I don’t think that matches what you are thinking either. I also wonder if anyone lives in any of the language houses, what they are like. They are so small, I can imagine more mixing there, too.</p>
<p>Thank you- I really appreciate this information, and would appreciate more </p>
