The University of Nevada, Las Vegas now offers eight separate homes for minorities, women and LGBT students.
According to a report by The College Fix, the UNLV now offers eight separate living quarters for minority students. The university refers to isolated residences as "thematic communities".
Earlier this year, the university praised a building on the Howell City campus, named after the first black landowner in the area named, offering students separate apartments based on their identity.
Howell Town is the new campus community. Student residences also include women's housing, healthy-living students and LGBTQ + and apartments for members of Honors College and Harrah College of Hospitality. In the first half of the year, Howell attracted 30 residents, mostly graduate students and transferred students.
UNLV officials say their school is the second most diverse in the country. To defend this title, they feel that they need to provide students with different spaces to "explore" their diversity.
"It was clear that there was both a desire and a need for dedicated spaces to explore identity in a meaningful way," said an UNLV official.
"Howell Town provides its strength by celebrating and exploring diversity rather than diversity or the presence of differences," he added. "These resources and the connection between them are essential components of the students' success."
Breitbart News reported in May that at least 75 American universities held a separate graduation party for black students. Many other facilities offer separate graduation parties to Latin American, disabled and LGBT student communities.
"We really wanted to have the opportunity to give voice to the Harvard non-violent, " a Harvard official said in 2017. "So many students identify with the African diaspora, but they do not necessarily feel welcome." within the community in general. and I do not think your stories will be shared. "
