Yale University has sued the state of Connecticut over rules
it says limit the number of gender-neutral bathrooms it can designate
on campus, the latest skirmish in the broader U.S. fight about gender
identity.
The Ivy League school said in the lawsuit it wants to
designate all single-occupant restrooms at its law school as gender
neutral, but the plan would run afoul of the state building code, which
does not count gender-neutral bathrooms when it assesses whether a
public building has enough toilets.
The suit was filed on Friday in Connecticut Superior Court
in New Haven, after the university received complaints from law school
students. Yale has asked the state to drop requirements that single-user
restrooms have an assigned gender label.
