University of South Alabama starts school year with new transgender bathroom policy

A more sophisticated metropolitan student body (Mobile), not like those two northern 'A' universities!

My alma mater! Go Jags!

According to the university's FAQ sheet:

• The policy was initiated because of the federal action, and that it was important to have in order to ensure that USA is "an inclusive space for all employees, students, staff and visitors."

• If someone is harassed for using the restroom or changing facility consistent with gender, that person is encouraged to contact the University Police Department at 251-460-6312 or local law enforcement. Non-emergency situations are to be directed to the Title IX Coordinator or by emailing [email protected].

• The campus has a list of single-stall and unmarked bathrooms on the main campus.

• If a community member is uncomfortable with the policy, they are encouraged to locate the nearest single-stall restroom. Questions about policy compliance are to be directed to the Title IX Coordinator via email.
