Hmm - I was living at Glendon College (part of York University in Toronto) about 5 years ago, and there were/are a number of floors of mixed males/females sharing common washroom facilities. True, these floors have individual shower stalls within the common washrooms since they were originally designed as "women's" floors. And when I started at Waterloo in 1977 they had a couple of floors organized the same way, but these were eventually discontinued. My experience is that after the initial novelty wears off, it's not really any big deal ... Of course, as far as I know there are still "visiting hours" in one or more of the church colleges affiliated with Waterloo. John
