I thought all the dorms are coed now? I know Moses is! When I went to visit my nephew, I was shocked!


I *think* Leggett is still all female, but I could be wrong.

Was discussing that with my kid just the other day, so I looked it up. There were a couple female only and one male only. The others are coed, but a mix of coed by room, suite, or floor depending on the dorm style.

Can men live in the same room as girls? What about the showers?

I know Leggett and Davis-Gary are all female. I thought Walton was the last all male, and that ended a few years ago.

The interesting thing was that when the University ended Walton's all-male status, some Walton residents filed a Title IX suit, on the basis that since there were all female dorms, there needed to be an all male dorm. The court denied their suit, based on the fact that there wasn't enough demand for an all male dorm. (Though I did wonder why they couldn't make a number of Walton's sections all male, enough to any guys who wanted to live in an all male dorm.)

Appelt on south side shows as all male. Maybe they found demand after the lawsuit. Underwood and Rudder are the all female dorms. Those are all modular, so at least the accommodations are equal? But they clearly aren't making the cheapest options single gender. Maybe the "demand" is there because lots of people want the modular style and will take a single gender over the other options.

Correct. Their filter is showing Legget and DG also as all female now.

Some would contend that Davis Gary leaned all-female as far back as the late '70s ...

They are never letting the men back into DG.

Given that DG has bathrooms for the whole floor, not attached to individual rooms, and there's only one per floor, it pretty much has to be single sex, or at least segregated by floor.

Oh, I know. That's where I spent my freshman year.

I mostly meant because the men tried to blow it up.

I was in Walton from 00 to 04. I heard they made it co-ed to try to curb the "culture" some but no idea if that is just a rumor. It was fairly wild when I was there. Met one of my best friends in life there.

Good to hear. I have great Walton memories. They should just be shared over drinks not on the internet

I THINK only Legett and Davis-Gary are all female, and the rest co-ed. It is my understanding Walton is freshman only.

I'm pretty sure Leggett and D-G are the only all female dorms. I can't recall if there are any all female floors in other dorms.

When Walton was made coed, there was actually a Title IX lawsuit, contending that since the university had all female dorms, they had to offer an all male dorm. The university's counter-argument was that there simply wasn't enough demand to fill an all male dorm.

I would think if there were some guys who wanted an all male dorm, they could set aside some stairwells in Walton or Hart to be all male if there wasn't enough requests to fill a whole dorm.

Coed now?? So I guess that means no more couches in the trees….
