Transgender students want gender-blind accommodations

A University of Iowa student group is lobbying school officials for gender-blind restrooms and dorm floors on campus. "People get harassed in bathrooms because they look different," said Cianan Russell, president of a group called Transitions. Russell, a senior, said he was often harassed while living on a female dormitory floor as a freshman. "Taking a shower or going to the bathroom were really difficult things to do," he said. "But that was my home. I didn't have anywhere else to go." press-citizen.com See also: Transitions
