President and Provost reject Mixed Gender Housing plan

University President John DiBiaggio and Provost Sol Gittleman met with student leaders in Ballou on March 15, where they announced that they have no intention of approving the Mixed Gender Housing Pilot Program proposal, or any similar initiative that involves male and female students sharing rooms on campus. Tufts' Transgendered Lesbian Gay Bisexual Collective (TTLGBC) Co-coordinator Carl Sciortino had been working with other students and administrators on the proposal for several weeks before he discovered that the initiative had been rejected by the President and the Provost.
