ensure all genders, gender identities and gender expressions are included in our housing, dining and hospitality
effort.

roommate/apartment-mate groups from students also participating in GIH @ their Room Selection
Community.

prepayment. Students have until April 3 to opt out. Adjustments will not be available after that date for Room
Selection Sign-Up. We will however work with those no longer interested in GIH after the completion of Room
