MUNCIE – Ball State University announced it will launch a pilot program for gender inclusive housing during the 2018-19 school year. 

The university's Division of Student Affairs and Enrollment Services, along with its Housing and Residence Life staff, will provide approximately 60 living spaces with private bathrooms for students who wish to use the program.

Alan Hargrave, Associate Vice President for Student Affairs and Director of Housing and Residence Life, said in a release that the initiative is the result of a year-long study that included significant student input. He added that research shows a majority of Ball State students support this gender inclusive housing as an additional option for living on campus.
