All-gender multi-occupant restrooms and single-occupant restrooms can benefit many different people, including families, differently abled persons, and trans &amp; nonbinary people. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Historically, restrooms have been a place for harassment, discrimination, and threats of injury and arrest towards transgender people. All-gender restrooms provide an opportunity for our community members to enter a room without being questioned or interrogated. If you are hosting an event in a building with all-gender restrooms, it is common practice to announce to all participants where they are located in that building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below, you will find some resources about all-gender restrooms on campus. Many are single stall, locking restrooms, while some in the residence halls are multi-stalled. Signage for these restrooms <em>do not always<\/em> indicate that they are single stall, or all-gender restrooms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also note that,&nbsp;<em>not every<\/em> all-gender restrooms is accessible.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Residence Halls and Houses<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-bates-shortcodes-btn btn-wrap\" id=\"2711e017-6dca-4cad-9429-11cc0b9e295c\"><div class=\"btn-action\" role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\" aria-controls=\"2711e017-6dca-4cad-9429-11cc0b9e295c\" aria-pressed=\"false\" aria-expanded=\"false\"><h3 class=\"btn-title\">Residence buildings<\/h3><div class=\"btn-arrow\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"btn-content\" id=\"2711e017-6dca-4cad-9429-11cc0b9e295c\">\n<p>Please review this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/housing\/housing-accommodations\/\">page<\/a> from Bates College&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/housing\/\">Residence Life<\/a> which provides names and number of all-gender multi-occupant and single-occupant restrooms that can be located within the Residence Halls and Houses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Residence halls and houses are currently only accessible to current Bates students.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other Campus Buildings <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-bates-shortcodes-btn btn-wrap\" id=\"a28dd8de-df81-4e03-a031-5e328a3a16b7\"><div class=\"btn-action\" role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\" aria-controls=\"a28dd8de-df81-4e03-a031-5e328a3a16b7\" aria-pressed=\"false\" aria-expanded=\"false\"><h3 class=\"btn-title\">Non-residence buildings<\/h3><div class=\"btn-arrow\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"btn-content\" id=\"a28dd8de-df81-4e03-a031-5e328a3a16b7\">\n<p>There are many campus buildings that have single-occupant restrooms, and these continue to grow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>Building Name and address<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Number of single-occupant restrooms<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Bonney Science Center, 45 Campus Ave<\/td><td>1st floor: 1 | 2nd  &#8211; 3rd floor: 5 each<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Carnegie Hall, 44 Campus Ave<\/td><td>1st floor: 4 | 2nd &#8211; 5th floor: 2 each<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Chase Hall, 56 Campus Ave<\/td><td>All floors: 2 each<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Commons, 136 Central Ave<\/td><td>2nd floor: 1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Dana Hall<\/td><td>All floors: 4 each<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Hathorn Hall, 3 Andrews Rd<\/td><td>Ground Floor: 2 | 1st floor: 1 | <br>2nd (Mezzanine) &#8211; 3rd floor: 2 each<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Harward Center, 161 Wood St<\/td><td>1st floor: 1 | 2nd floor: 2<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Hedge Hall <\/td><td>3rd floor: 2<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Health Services, 31 Campus Ave<\/td><td>1st -2nd floor: 2 each<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Ladd Library, 48 Campus Ave<\/td><td>Ground floor: 1 | 1st floor: 2 | 2nd floor: 1 | 3rd floor: 2<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Lane Hall, 2 Andrews Rd<\/td><td>Ground floor: 2 | 1st floor: 3 | 2nd floor: 1, ADA compliant | 3rd floor: 2<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Multifaith Chaplaincy, 163 Wood St<\/td><td>1st &#8211; 2nd floor: 1 each | 3rd floor: 2<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Peter J.
