Create a Gender Free Restroom at GSU

The Issue

From the Governors State University Mission Statement Page

"Demonstrate Inclusiveness and Diversity
At GSU, we embrace diversity among students, staff, and faculty as well as members of the broader community, and we encourage acceptance of wide-ranging perspectives."
http://www.govst.edu/strategy2015/default.aspx?id=22484

However, the restroom options available demonstrate segregation by gender and exclusion of those individuals who prefer another option.

We believe the nonavailability of a gender free restroom is contrary to the "demonstration of diversity".

We would like to propose that one of the gendered restrooms to be converted to single occupancy restroom with a door that locks from the inside.
