The University of Victoria is including "de-gendered" washrooms in all its new buildings for the comfort and safety of transgender students. Simon Fraser University juggles room bookings for Muslim students whose prayer times follow the sun, and the University of Calgary is launching an "equity audit" this fall to identify undersupported groups on campus.

We've "degenderized" the single-stall lockable bathrooms at my school for me and for anyone else who might follow.

Wiccan holidays would be a little more difficult to get throught he school board!
