Wow, the local church must have been giving out hateraid. I don't in my wildest dreams believe that everyone here who went to college acted this piously. Kids in college already have intercourse; pretending that gender-segregated dorm rooms is going to encourage that is absurd. This is the 21st century, people.

The old days would never have tolerated this. Why are colleges and universities allowing it now? Do they realize sex and illegal drug use is going on? Certain students that was raised right is not involved in this. They have morals and have respect for themselves.

ok... come back to this century!!

Do you mean the old days like 70s when it was free love and drugs at college?

"The roommate knew about the roomie but did not have enough respect for herself to say NO to the guy. "

Again, your sexism is showing.

"WHAT? Do they realize people are having free sex...in these dorms?"

Consensual sex in a dorm room is not illegal... so yes they do realize it. You ever heard of putting a sock on the doorknob?

So, if it's important to protect the comfort of gay people (and I agree that it is), it's important to protect the comfort of straight people as well.

All that resides on a college/univ. campus should absolutely be protected and feel safe. All not just a certain group.

Chancellor Holden Thorp said the move is vital to protecting the safety of UNC-Chapel Hill students.

The university certainly needs a new chancellor with his mind set of thinking. Would he want this on his own daughter or son? I think not. By the way, where is his morals and respect? Maybe he needs to be investigated to see what he is really up to. Wife be warned.

"The ladies there graduated still have morals and self-respect."

...but not the men? Always the fault of the females, eh?

be an adult and could chose to go to school wherever they chose and you couldn't do a thing to stop it.

Sure thing. But the parents have a right not to be a financial support. Then what will the student do then. The man they sleep with will certainly not finance her.
