Students couldn't even have a gun in their dorms to defend themselves
As pro-gun as I am, I think it's probably better that college kids dont have guns in their dorms. From what I remember of my dorming experience, at least 1/2 the dorm was under the influence of alcohol Friday-Sunday. Drama, tempers, and stupidity are common in dorms, especially when people are intoxicated. There could also be problems with theft of firearms if this was allowed.

The Suffolk County cops have been good at quickly removing a visitor at the same Stony Brook dorm, who shouldn't have been there because of an order of protection.

My daughters who have attended state schools (in-state and out-of-state) don't mind unisex bathrooms.

On the other hand, I fondly remember the days of single-sex dorms with 11PM curfews during the week.
