Cornell University Assembly Votes for Gender Inclusive Restrooms and Locker Rooms

Cornell’s University Assembly (UA) voted 9-0 to create gender inclusive restrooms and locker rooms across campus in a meeting on Tuesday.

The resolution, titled “Adoption of an Inclusive Restroom, Locker Room, and Gender-Specific Facility Usage Policy”, specifically calls for the conversion of “all existing single-occupancy or single-stall facilities in all Cornell-owned buildings on the Ithaca campus be converted from gender-specific to all-gender facilities” where not prohibited by law by the beginning of the fall 2016 semester.

In it report, the Cornell Sun omitted the fact that the resolution also calls for gender inclusive locker rooms, and, though the language is unclear, possibly also changing rooms and showers.

The resolution’s first stipulation is that the University adopt a formal policy or written statement allowing anyone on campus to “use the restroom or other applicable facility that corresponds to their gender identity, without a letter or other burdensome items from a therapist or doctor or proof of transition-related services and procedures.”

The UA resolution also calls for the University’s Division of Infrastructure Properties & Planning to design “consistent signage for all universal facilities”, including restrooms, locker rooms, changing rooms, and showers, by the end of the spring 2016 semester.

Justifying the proposed policy changes, the resolution, authored by UA executive committee member Ulysses Smith ’14, cites University policy; President Obama’s Executive Order 13672, On LGBT Workplace Discrimination; Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) rulings and Department of Justice reports; and previous Cornell assembly resolutions calling for similar policies, including one adopted in 2011 and finalized in June 2015 that created unisex restrooms and locker rooms across campus.
