Haverford College to allow opposite-sex roommates. “Partly in response to requests from gay students, Haverford College will allow men and women to share bedrooms next school year in the college’s apartment-style dormitories.”

As a residence life professional, I think this is a great way to improve the retention rate in university housing past the freshman year. And as a gay man who once moved to an off-campus apartment with 2 women, I think this would make for some safer feeling space for many GLBT students (via stuffed dog).
