Sarah Lawrence College

Notes:

• All-gender housing has been in place since 2004, allowing students of any gender identity to room together (https://www.sarahlawrence.edu/student-life/housing-and-dining/all-gender-housing.html).
• TransAction, a student-led organization, has been an on-campus force for transgender-centered advocacy and activism at Sarah Lawrence for over a decade (https://www.sarahlawrence.edu/news-events/events/detail/3447).
• Student activists successfully pushed to designate single-occupancy facilities as gender-neutral bathrooms in 2007, with new all-gender signage installed across campus (https://www.sarahlawrence.edu/magazine/global-citizen/on-campus/tidbits.html).
• Sarah Lawrence allows students to use a chosen/preferred first name on college-issued documents and in campus systems (https://www.sarahlawrence.edu/student-life/student-handbook/2023-24-student-handbook.pdf).
• The College’s official nondiscrimination policy explicitly includes gender identity and its expression among protected categories (https://www.sarahlawrence.edu/media/student-life/pdf/SLC-Student-Handbook.pdf).
• SLC’s Athletics Department collects each student-athlete’s preferred name and gender pronoun and respects their gender identity in team participation (conditional) and media communications (https://gogryphons.com/news/2014/5/16/SPORTSMED_0516142315.aspx).
• Campus groups (including TransAction) host annual events such as Coming Out Stories and Transgender Day of Remembrance to foster support and awareness for trans-identifying students (http://sarahlawrencephoenix.com/past-issue/2015/2/8/trans-students-speak-on-identity).
