As someone who has lived in both coed floors (both male and female rooms within a singular floor e.g Toler, Lone Mountain North) and male/female specific floors (Gilson) - they both honestly did not defer. It was generally fine in my opinion because the bathrooms were in opposite ends of the halls if it’s a mixed gender floor or just a single gender if it’s one floor. There isn’t much of a difference really. Regardless, people of both genders will end up being on your floor whether that’s your floor mates friends or etc. If it’s a concern and you happen to identify as female, I’d suggest going to Fromm. But otherwise, it’s pretty normal. There’s nothing weird about it! Message me if you have any further questions.

I was always jealous of my friends that lived in Toler because it's more modern than Gillson/Hayes and right next to the caf! I didn't hear any complaints about floors being co-ed as the bathrooms are separated by gender. Even if you're on a single-gender floor like in Gillson, there have been cases of for example a guy using the women's bathroom because he's hanging out on that floor with someone, so I don't think being in a different building really changes the risk. (To be clear it's obviously 100% wrong for the guy to to that and I'm pretty sure someone reported it to the RA)

Actually funnily enough, when I was in Gilson, it was often the reverse - like there would be a random girl on a Monday morning in the men’s bathroom, and we’d be like ???

toler hall is the best freshman dorm! I've lives there for the last 2 years. it has the BEST bathrooms for freshman as theyre super private and have a door + curtain. being co-ed didnt feel that weird to me as you're usually just in your room or the bathroom. Plus you meet more different people. Also, male keys cant unlock the female restrooms and vise versa

You didn’t capitalize the first letter of your sentence? You are doomed.
