Housing Options for LGBTQA Students
Undergraduate | Graduate | Apply for Housing | Housing Contact Info
Housing options for undergraduate LGBTQ students and their allies are located in Middle Earth and Arroyo Vista. Graduate student housing options are located in Verano Place and Palo Verde.
Open House in Middle Earth (Gender Neutral Housing)
Living in this community will provide an "open" experience for those who desire to be in an environment where people are able to express themselves freely in a multitude of ways including identity, sexuality, and gender. Thus, the residents of "Open House" will be able to benefit from a unique gender-free experience in a non-judgmental environment that encourages self-expressions and individuality. Collaborative programs between Student Housing and the Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Resource Center will enhance individual exploration and foster community, knowledge, and security.
Gender neutral housing allows same-gender roommates, opposite-gender roommates, or other gender-identity roommate pairings, regardless of physical sex. (To clarify, gender identities are numerous and include man, woman, genderqueer and transgender, among many others.) Thus, residents of gender neutral housing may request any roommate whosoever.
Middle Earth is currently working to develop this housing option. For more information, please contact, Jennifer Nelson-Martinez in the Middle Earth Housing Office at (949) 824-5976 or the LGBT Resource Center at (949) 824-3277.
Spectrum House in Arroyo Vista
The Spectrum House is a unique community that celebrates and affirm the cultural experiences for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex, queer, and questioning students and their allies through programming, community development, an increased visibility of LGBT students & issues, and providing a safe space for LGBT students and their allies. Focusing on creating an inclusive and welcoming campus environment for students of all sexual orientations and gender identities, the Spectrum House promotes the understanding about sexual orientation, gender, and other aspects of diversity to enhance students' leadership skills, personal development, and multicultural awareness. Residents who choose to live in the house will be asked to complete Safe Zone training, attend at least one LGBTRC/Spectrum program each quarter, and be an active, positive member of the house.
